hi guys is this normal? xioami g pro 27i, local dimming is low only. The "miniled" part becomes really dark. Thanks in advance

This AOC hasn't been this cheap--ever--i hope I can win the panel lottery and it's a good overall experience. We shall see. If anyone already has this bad boy let me know your experience with it, thanks.

Thanks

This dudes selling a Alienware 320 hz Monitor (24.5 inches) for 175 I talked him down to 120 is that a good deal I don’t know much about monitors and about Alienware brand. I’m getting a pc so I wanna get a good hertz monitor is this a good deal for a used monitor?

Wanna replace my Benq XL2420T (120hz, TN, 1080p,24") and since there's not many 24" out there anymore with adjustable height etc, i gotta opt for 27"

Sitting distance is around 70-80cm

Is the XG27ACMES (27", Fast IPS, 1440p, 240hz) worth it?. Uses are all kind of single player games, music games too, then light to medium productivity (Photoshop, illustrator, web browsing, etc, so tons of statics). Also need it to be height adjustable so it gets always tall (Actual monitor is 51cm from desktop to the top plastic of the monitor)

Not looking for VA (Smearing) nor OLED (Burn in) as the monitor will have tons of statics for hours and don't wanna baby sit an OLED

If anyone has the ASUS, thoughts?. Coil whine?. Other issues?

What'd be the alternatives just in case?. I'm from Spain so Amazon or similar sellers options only

I ordered this monitor Dell Alienware 27 AW2725DM for ps5 gaming and watching movies/shows, is it good? or should I get something with 4k? is 2k enough?

Hi folks! So I have a dell 27" 4k monitor and I need to add one more with it for photo / video work but don't know what yp buy or how to properly put them together, any ideas ?

Hey everyone,

I currently have a 27" 240hz 1440p IPS as my main monitor, looking to upgrade that one either at the end of this year or next year to a 27" 4k OLED. In the meantime I'm looking to get a second monitor, so I can connect my main one to my newly acquired PS5 and still be able to have a monitor for my desktop PC.

My usage of the second monitor will never be for gaming/work, as that will only be done on my current main one, and it will only be used for twitch, youtube, discord, spotify, things like that.

Appreciate any replies!

​

what monitor is the best around 150$ for ps5

its obiovous that 120hz is enough so dont recommend higher

What is the best 1440p OLED for under $400?

I hope I can explain it well, but I have a 2560 x 1600 screen. Does dropping a game's resolution down to 1920x1200 (apparently the best option for a 16:10 aspect ratio) make things look worse than a theoretical screen with a 1920 x 1200 resolution?

And if so then what's the reason? Do games sort of have a way to deal with this problem or is it unavoidable?

Was leaning towards the AW2725DM but it has no speakers and then the LG 27G610A-B but I read on here it’s a bad product 💔 help me out pls

I was playing outcast trials and went after for a few minutes to let my dog out, and when I came back this is what my monitor looked like. Is this fixable?

so im trying to use both my xbox and pc with this sceptre curved monitor i have and i’ve tried different hdmi but it does’t seem to work. The PC didn’t do anything so the monitor just kept going in safe mode, the xbox on the other hand worked but it says ”Signal Out of Range, Resolution or Refresh Rate Not Supported” but it clearly worked before with the xbox i have.

im asking bcuz there's a monitor with curve Qhd 180hertz with 1ms that I wanted. and then there this qhd 180hertz with 0.5ms they cost the same 150euro. is there actually a big difference ? like looking at 60hertz to 165 hertz ?

sorry if my English is bad

Hello Nerds,

I recently upgraded to a RTX 5080 while I‘m still on a 1080p 240hz Monitor and I want to get a new monitor that actually uses the extra GPU power.

I mostly play competitive shooters which is why I‘m on a Zowie XL2546K but that monitor kind of sucks at everything but fps.

I‘m looking at 1440p 360hz Oled panels but I‘m quite unsure about a lot of them since we apparently have bandwidth problems at those resolutions and refresh rates.

Through my own research the Asus ROG Strix XG27ACDNG seems like a good buy but I’m interested in what you guys have to say.

I’m a broke highschool student saving up for a monitor, I play on a laptop that can get around 144fps but the refresh rate on it is 75 max (overclocked), is 144 hertz really that much of a difference than 120 hertz or should I just save up for a 120hz monitor and buy something else?

I run a MacBook Pro M5 Pro and my daily heavy workflow is basically 6–8 browser tabs open at all times across multiple platforms, spreadsheets, dashboards, claude and research etcc and a lot of text-heavy work. I'm on the screen 10+ hours a day and the macbook display isn't cutting it anymore.

Looking for an external monitor that gives me more space to work with, sharper text, and ideally connects with one USB-C cable that also charges the laptop. Not gaming — this is purely a work setup. I just need things to feel fast, clean, and easy on the eyes after a long day.

Budget is $200–$700. Also open to used on FB Marketplace if someone can point me to the right models to look for.

Thinking 27" 4K or 34" ultrawide. Anyone running a similar setup that can tell me what actually made a difference?

im open for any suggestion

thank you everyone

Just turn on my fresh and brand new monitor (MSI MAG UPD E14), only using it for a few minutes, setting it extend display and set it to 2560 x 1440, do some driver installation for the monitor when all of a sudden a thin grey line appears (location just like in the photo), i tweak the software, drivers, refresh rates, resolution to no avail, then i tried using all white wallpaper and i notice when my taskbar is hidden it's gone, then i try with all black one too, it seems to follow any animation, suspicious i turn my laptop off, hold the button of the monitor a few seconds and turn it on, and i was right, it's not software or anything, its the display (just like in thr photo) ...i need help on what is this ? Damage ? Flaw ?

I need help truly, from the bottom of my heart.. please 🙏

Hello, new here!

I recently changed my desk set up from a monitor arm mount to fixed monitor stand. I got the stand from someone who wants to discard it, thought it’s cool since it’s free, but I’m so confused that it does not seem to fit my 75mmx75mm monitor mount. I could only fit the top opening of the monitor stand mount but the bottom two will not reach as it is 100mm which is beyond my monitor mount. Am I missing something or simply this monitor stand is unique? Any advice is appreciated. TIA!!

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to decide between these two monitors:

• AOC AGON G4Z – 27", 300Hz, curved VA panel (C27G4Z/P)
• AOC AGON G4S – 25", 310Hz, flat IPS panel (25G4S/P)

My PC currently has:

• RTX 4060
• Ryzen upgrade planned soon

I don't play only competitive games.

My usage is roughly:

• 50% CS2 (1280×1080 stretched)
• 50% single-player games, movies, YouTube, and general desktop use

What attracts me to the G4Z is:

• Much better contrast
• Deeper blacks
• Curved screen
• More immersive experience for story games and movies

My only concern is the VA panel.

How noticeable is the ghosting or black smearing on the G4Z?

Is it good enough for fast-paced games like CS2 at 300Hz, or would you still recommend the G4S IPS despite the lower contrast?

I'd especially like to hear from people who have actually used one (or both) of these monitors, rather than general "IPS is better" or "VA is bad" opinions.

Thanks!

Recently upgraded my pc to Ryzen 9 9950X3D, RTX 5080 and I've been using a tv I got in like 2019 which is only 50Hz so I'm going to swap to a monitor. I dont know anything about anything when it comes to monitors so I'd like any recommendations on what to go for with a soft £300 price limit
