If anyone is wondering, yes going from 1080p to 1440p makes a huge difference in image quality. 1440p is really clear and it cleans up the image. You can't ever go back to 1080p.
Thanks for clarifying this for me. I have a new laptop with an RTX 3050, 13th Gen I5, and 32gb of ram, but the display is only 1080p 144hz and I want to try out 1440p gaming.
I own 2x 1440p monitors, currently using a 4k monitor, and i am gaming in 1728x1080 lol.. Depends on the game you are playing, if you are soloing, yes go for high res, if you are playing competitive FPS, then go for higher res if you want to get rekt
you know monitors are used for watching content and work/editing not just gaming, for those 1440p oled prices i would rather stick with the new 4k ones who came recently (they both cost the same)
@@ahmedelbashir8789 Yeah but OLED isn't suitable for work/editing either. I'd only recommend them to people playing singleplayer and for media consumption.
I swear, I built a new pc with a 4080super and 1440p benq ex270qm monitor to game on the best settings for years to come. I do have an oled 65" 4k sony A9G for 4k 120hz gaming if I really wanted, but I hardly switch over.
Love your content! Really appreciate this video! I hope I'm not a bother but just a quick question for you. I have a Legion 7i laptop with a 4070. Do you think the Alienware 360hz OLED would be wasted on me? Im not if I have enough power to push past 240 but that monitor does look fantastic. Lastly, if you were to get it, would you just order it now or do you think there's a decent chance for a thanksgiving/blackfriday deal? thankyou in advance. wishing you a great weekend
Thank you for the super thanks!! So the Laptop 4070 performs closer to a 4060 Ti desktop GPU, so unless you are playing very easy to run titles like CS2 / Valorant / Overwatch 2, you'll struggle to hit over 240hz even at competitive settings. So I wouldn't overspend, but the monitor will likely outlive your laptop so keep that in mind. In terms of when the best deals occur, it's hard to say. Likely the week of Black Friday but sometimes we see the best deals on the early black friday offers.
@@PCBuilderChannel ah appreciate the honest reply, thanks! and my pleasure! I had a feeling the 4070 in the laptop couldnt possibly have the same performance as the pc (desktop) 4070. But really appreciate you pointing out which gpu it does compare to. also great point about the monitor life. Its funny you say that, as I pretty much only play overwatch2 (maybe fortnite once in a while). My only followup question though, for clarity, would you no longer look at OLEDs? Do OLEDs just require more performance than what my laptop can offer? or were you mainly just referring to the ability to push 240+ frames. If I was really committed to getting an OLED, would you opt for one of the alternatives that are a tiny bit less pricey or at that point, if Im already spending big, would you say its worth it to spend the extra 100-200 to get the alienware given how great it is overall?
@@ZSonnenblick He was referring to the refresh rate, not OLEDs so if you are set on an OLED than the Alienware is a good choice, just be aware you won't take advantage of it's high refresh rate so if you can find a significantly cheaper OLED with a lower refresh rate the money saved could go to better uses.
I picked up a Dell G2724D (165Hz, 1440p) back in March and it has been fantastic for gaming. It retails for $300, but I snagged it for $200 and I'm blown away by how good it is. I think this is another monitor worth checking out in the midrange. Rtings has a great technical review of it as well for anyone curious.
If I was looking for a 1440p monitor under $300, I'd really have my eyes on the AOC miniled. That 1000 not peak HDR brightness combined with the local dimming zones just make it a different experience from other monitors in that price point. If you are in a region that has these monitors more expensive than yeah, that's unfortunate. So I personally don't see any reason to go for the Dell unless it's a fair amount cheaper and you can't afford the AOC or if your country has higher prices for tech like in Europe.
That's not even the real, full model number. That's just the short code that has several models under it. The full model number for that one is XV272U V3bmiiprx.
Agree, got one in the UK for ~£200 about 2 months ago and its fantastic, also considered the LG Ultragear 27GR75Q at same pricepoint but Dell seemed to have better reviews.
Because of you, I get all my parts for my computer tomorrow so I can build and I bought a monitor from this video. That CPU / GPU combo with the Ryzen 5 7600 build videos really helped me a lot.
The only thing I really learned from this vid is that I am going to have to wait with buying a new monitor because I would ideally like a 1440p 27 inch 240p oled monitor for about 200-300 bucks but that deffo isn’t gonna work out😅
I bought the AOC CQ27G3Z but it sadly got screen burned (years of gaming and forgot/never knew it was a thing :( ), instead of buying this monitor again, should i just go for the LG 27GR83Q-B? I don't mind upgrading my monitor with this price jump but im wondering whats different between the two that causes the jump in price. Thanks.
4080super i play esports, COD, Lost Arc and WoW looking for a good high refresh low response time oled, currently running 5700xd, soon building either an intel 1200ks on DDR5 or the 7800x3d on the AMD ddr5 platform, what would you roccomand? 1000+ budget
Hey man great video! While I’d love to jump into OLED, I just can’t justify spending $700+ at the moment. With that, would you choose the AOC Q27G3XMN or the LG 27GR83Q-V? I mostly play single player games, but I do still play only fps games with friends, just not at a competitive level. Is one better than the other or is it more of a “240hz vs HDR/better colors”? Thanks!
I took him up on one of his suggestions about a 1080p monitor and holy shit night and day from the one I was using lol. I didn't even realize how much better it could look on 1080p and thought I was just gonna have to go up to 1440p. Definitely listen to this man.
7:50 there is a Acer Nitro VG272U W2, IPS panel and up to 240hz with display port. it was 238$ after tax. i can't for the life of me find any reviews on this though. please send help! very much appreciated if you have the time, sir.
Aww video i was loking for. wonderfull video, i think i will buy the first monitor because the one you send me the link to (btw thank you for that very much) was so confusing what version it was (i mean the BGR ir RGB one) because the dont provide it and i dont wanna have a hasle with it, this one look good, i been using a 1080p 60hz anyway so i dont need the mid range ones (but its still cost 300 buck for me here R.I.P)
Hey, what do you mean with you will buy the first monitor? Which one did you buy? Also you mentioned BGR and RGB.. You mean the M27Q-X monitor from gigabyte right? It has 2 versions and I couldn't find the 2nd
I have a 4k lg tv i wanna use it for pc gaming , but i think my rx7700 xt is not good for 4k gaming , i want to get at least 100 fps on high settings 😢
@@anitaremenarova6662 I have a RTX 3060TI, so that 1440p Ultrawide would be too much for the poor 8GB GPU, even with DLSS. I gather that 32" 1440p is similar PPI as 24" 1080p. And I was happy with the PPI of 24" 1080p at the time. I am now with a 28" 1080p Ultrawide from LG (75Hz). I enjoy the Ultrawide from factor, but the RTX 3060TI just can't drive larger resolutions at faster framerates (one reason I am considering a new monitor is to go beyond 75Hz).
Currently the MSI G274QPX is the same price as the HP OMEN 27QS. I was wondering why you would specifically recommend that one over the omen, as well as how you ordered the other 2 monitors above those (the LG and the gigabyte). Thank you for any info.
I wish there were an option for increased quality at reduced frame rate. I, personally, can’t see a significant difference in anything above 120fps. I’d be happy to take a 120hz monitor at a lower price or with better quality.
Look no further than mini-LED options. KTC M27T20 for $340 or the budget AOC Q27G3XMN for just $279 but with only half the dimming zones making dark scenes have a lot of blooming.
Great video as always! Struggling on which AOC to go with... overall value, do you think the Q27G3XMN is the way to go? Them both at the same price makes it very hard to pick...
Thanks for the Info......very informative......Any thoughts on the Samsung Odyssey G95C 49 Dual for video editing?......Its going for $799 on Amazon and is more in my budget.....and should i get an amazon warranty on this monitor? Thank you ahead of time.
The oled is very bad. Very sudden writing items, high response time, and the worst is in the games, the shadows were too black and ne see things that with others yes.Mi asus vg278qr, it looks better, it is faster and bigger screen(oled no is 27p,is more small ,is 26.5p). I didn't want the OLED, it's a scam.My ASUS has an option called Vivpxel and blacks look better than the OLED, as I am glad to have this 27. And it costs only 250 euros monitor(ahh,0,01 ms real...the oled is 2 o more.I put the 2 monitors in parallel and I did evidence. The Oled was worse in everything I compared, and I am already an old dog in this
4:43 I've a NVIDIA gf gtx1070, a monitor with freesync will still working on it if i use the DisplayPort???. I ask this bc u said "all MODERN ☠Nvidia gpus compatible"
Just snagged the 240hz LG for $299! Seemed to good to pass up, will wait to see what Black Friday deals and see if I can get a better quality 240hz IPS or maybe an OLED...might stretch the budget to $500.. you planning on another 1440P monitor video for Black Friday deals?
Yes that's a great deal! I'll be covering them in our Black Friday video and I'm posting the best deals I see on the youtube community page and twitter/threads @pcbuilderjason. But yes I posted that one its a great great deal
@@PCBuilderChannel I actually just cancelled the order before it shipped... Snatched up the AOC Agon Pro OLED for $400, cannot believe that price!! Great value and wanted OLED but not at $600+. I have had 2 AOCs for years so I will remain loyal.
Do 1440p ips panels have better text quality than va panels? My 1440p monitor arrived today and without doing much research before buying it, i now found out it is a VA panel monitor and reading text is just blurry or uncomfortable to look at. The text is just so pixelated compared to my old 1080p screen laptop.
The amount of info at the start is amazing, explaining everything i needed to know. I spent hours flicking through videos looking for guide for buying monitor when all i needed was this video. Thank you
Awesome video, i cant decide if i want a 27" or 32" monitor for my ps5 pro. The oled look so awesome but little pricey but im willing to spend about 800 for a monitor so which monitor would you choose if your budget was 800
Hp Omen 27QS Open box for $229 or the LG GR83Q for $346?? Which one is the best bang for my buck for best all around quality and performance for FPS 1440 p gaming and also wanting to play more story games . I need to know fast please!
Went with the Alienware 2725df and it's a fantastic monitor. Which preset would you reccomended is best for gaming? Creator HDR 1000 seems to be the one I see a lot of people use on these videos would you agree?
My best options in my country at the moment is the xv272u and the lg27gp850p-b they are basically the same price over here so which one would you say is better?
I’m hoping he responds because I was looking at this same monitor too. My wife ask me for a birthday gift and I saw this and sent it to her. Hopefully I didn’t screwup.
They are just price too high to compete with my current recommendations. If they come down in price we'll add them to our links but at the moment just not worth the price jump from out picks.
What would be the better panel in your opinion. I'm stuck between the Dell G2724D and the LG GP850-B, I've heard good reviews and both and bad reviews about both and they are the same price in AUS.
I have a medical condition causing me to play from a medical bed across the room, probably for the foreseeable future. I would like to get something like a 50-55" flatscreen type monitor with preferably 144hz+...do you have a recommendation for that kind of thing? I greatly appreciate anyone who answers this question. Next tax return I have the intention to build an updated PC, focusing on maximizing 1440p gaming. Was thinking 4080 super, 7800x3d, 32g of DDR5(6000hz), 2TB N.VMe...something like that. But I don't want to have that power and be bottle necked by a crappy output device.
there are no 50-55" gaming monitors. the biggest is 32" for non-ultrawide and 49" for ultrawide with the height of 27-32". only the side is bigger. for 50-55" size, you have to buy a TV.
I have a question, in the video you say that WOLED are usually matte finish. However the XG27AQDMG says glossy WOLED panel in the description. Is this one glossy as a one off and not the norm for WOLED? I would prefer a glossy one so I was wondering if the WOLED technology has matte coating on top despite saying glossy WOLED panel in the description
I am currently using a Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 GPU on my Lenovo Legion 5 laptop and I wanted to buy a monitor and plug it into my laptop so I enhance my gaming experience and I really wanted to know your personal recommendation on a monitor you think would give me the best display possible. My budget is around $500. If you could also recommend the exact cables to use to connect that monitor to my laptop, I would greatly appreciate it, thank you! Subscribed :)
That graph at 2:32 shows no cards even hitting 120 fps on average, so why would you recommend 144hz , 240hz, 360hz, etc. monitors if none of these cards are going to hit that in modern AAA games? Are you suggesting they lower settings to medium or only play games that support DLSS or FSR3 to compensate?
That graph is max settings in AAA games without upscaling. Not how people would actually play with those GPUs. There are plenty of games where those GPUs can hit 120fps and more. Getting less than 165Hz nowadays is a waste of money
Im looking for a second monitor to put next to my main monitor AW2721D, as I don't want to spend another 700eur for a secondary monitor, what would you go for?
what the differences between the AOC Gaming U34G3XM and the OC Q27G3XMN you advice? Is it only the size? I don't trust AOC mine fried at 144 MHz just yesterday I had it since 2 years ago...
What about the Alienware 1440p 240hz AW2723DF? Is it as good as these other 1440p 240hz ones or is the m27q-x and the LG one better? I don’t care about pricing as it’s all within 100$ of each other
I found the asus 27 inch 1440p 170hz VG27AQA1A for $170 on amazon, would this monitor be good for a dual monitor setup? Also, should I get this over any of the recommended budget monitors in the video?
Hey @PCBuilderChannel, I’m going back to 27” from my 34”. I was looking at the AOC CQ27G3Z for $279, but as of right now Amazon has the Samsung Odyssey G6 G65B for $299. Which one would be the better monitor? Thanks
Actually there's 3 1440p 240hz monitors linked in the description for $299 I'd recommend! You'll see them marked with the fire emojis. Any of those are a great deal
@@PCBuilderChannel Didn’t see those, I have always favored curved monitors so I guess I’ll be going with the G6. Just worried about the dead pixels, and other issues from reviews. Thanks!
@@PCBuilderChannel you have them listed but you could talk a little bit about them since I feel that since they are almost all VA we will get into something with a few drawbacks. Me for example, I have ordered a Gigabyte M32QC VA 170hZ, but saw it had a few problems, BUT could have a better option with the Gigabyte G34WQC which you recommended, but I don't know if what I'm getting is just a bigger M32QC, with the same issues, and your input would be greatly aprecciated on that regard. Keep up with the awesome work, you are already my go to reference in everything tech related.
Hey man is there another monitor like this one at 13:24 but with lower HZ like 165 or 144 I feel like 360hz is overkill making the monitor unnecessary expensive
Which of these have the least amount of ghosting/reverse ghosting? I bought a gigabyte GS27Q 1440p monitor but it has crazy amounts of reverse ghosting that cant be fixed by turning off Overdrive.
Out of curiosity why didn't the LG 27GS95QE make it onto the list for OLED? Where do you feel it came up short? I was leaning towards getting it, but now I'm unsure lol
The only 1440p monitors I'll buy are 21:9 units. I've never owned a 32:9, but my brief experience using one was not particularly good. I have a Dell 3400x1440 IPS monitor at 60Hz driven by a 6750XT or a 2070 Super for non-gaming tasks and an Alienware 120Hz driven by a 6800XT for no-RT gaming. I've had both for at least five years, and I'm still in no need of an upgrade.
The PS5 can’t utilize most features a monitor has because it needs a HDMI 2.1 port. I’ve been struggling trying to find a decent 1440p HDMI 2.1 monitor.
I upgraded from a 1080p 144hz monitor to the msi 34inch oled with a 4070ti super. First thing I did was play dead space remake, Resident evil 2 and 4 remake all on ultra settings. That monitor is the best gaming purchase of my life. Do I even want to know what 4k is like? 😬
Hello , I’m really enjoying your content and information on the budget side of gaming monitors and if I may ask what are your opinions about the LG Gn600-b ?. It’s available at my local Walmart for $209 and seems like a good option for my Xbox series S since it’s 1440p and can support 120hz . I would order online but had bad experiences with warranty and damaged shipping just easy to go in the store to swap it
This man has early 2000s commercial energy (which 100% a compliment coming from me) as someone who is very visual and sound attention focused, this held my attention and I learned a lot that I definitely did not know beforehand. Will definitely browse more videos. ^_^
I currently have LG 45 inch monitor but I’m looking for second OLED screen @ 27 inch to play games that does support 21:9. I’m PC-4090 and PS5. I will use 27 inch for my PS5 as well. I’m thinking about getting the LG UltraGear 27" OLED QHD 240Hz 0.03ms FreeSync and NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible Gaming Monitor with HDR400 what’s your thoughts?
im in the UK and looking for a monitor, do you think the AOC Gaming Q27G2S is a reasonable choice, the acer you recommend do not seem to be available on amazon and the AOC mini led is almost £435, the Q27G2S is £224.
Thank you for keeping the prices in the description updated! I was refering back to this video to decide what monitor and see that both of the ASRock monitors have dropped in price. Awesome. looks like a good time to buy. After that I'll start my build.
Loved your in-depth review. Very knowledgeable and helpful. What do you think about the Innocn 27g1s plus 27" 240hz 2k monitor? Its arriving tomorrow and im hoping its fairily decent.

Hey man great video! While I’d love to jump into OLED, I just can’t justify spending $700+ at the moment. With that, would you choose the AOC Q27G3XMN or the LG 27GR83Q-V? I mostly play single player games, but I do still play only fps games with friends, just not at a competitive level. Is one better than the other or is it more of a “240hz vs HDR/better colors”? Thanks!
i dont know about the Lg one but i have a AOC CQ32G2SE and it has the most screen tearing ive ever seen and i wont ever be buying from AOC again
I bought the ViewSonic XG2736-2K 240hz is it ok? Or is the UltraGear 27GR83Q better? I play on ps5 and pc especially competitive.
I took him up on one of his suggestions about a 1080p monitor and holy shit night and day from the one I was using lol. I didn't even realize how much better it could look on 1080p and thought I was just gonna have to go up to 1440p. Definitely listen to this man.
_Only youtube channel where you have to watch at 0.75x speed_
7:50 there is a Acer Nitro VG272U W2, IPS panel and up to 240hz with display port. it was 238$ after tax.
i can't for the life of me find any reviews on this though. please send help! very much appreciated if you have the time, sir.
Aww video i was loking for. wonderfull video, i think i will buy the first monitor because the one you send me the link to (btw thank you for that very much) was so confusing what version it was (i mean the BGR ir RGB one) because the dont provide it and i dont wanna have a hasle with it, this one look good, i been using a 1080p 60hz anyway so i dont need the mid range ones (but its still cost 300 buck for me here R.I.P)
The Gigabyte GS27Q is another budget option if it's cheaper where you are.
The one here is hard to beat for sure! Glad we can help (:
Hey, what do you mean with you will buy the first monitor? Which one did you buy? Also you mentioned BGR and RGB.. You mean the M27Q-X monitor from gigabyte right? It has 2 versions and I couldn't find the 2nd
I have a 4k lg tv i wanna use it for pc gaming , but i think my rx7700 xt is not good for 4k gaming , i want to get at least 100 fps on high settings 😢
Yes you would want a GPU upgrade.
I'd like to see a 1440p 32" category.
To me, 27" is a bit small...
32" is 4K territory, consider an ultrawide 34" instead since it won't destroy your performance.
@@anitaremenarova6662 I have a RTX 3060TI, so that 1440p Ultrawide would be too much for the poor 8GB GPU, even with DLSS.
I gather that 32" 1440p is similar PPI as 24" 1080p. And I was happy with the PPI of 24" 1080p at the time.
I am now with a 28" 1080p Ultrawide from LG (75Hz). I enjoy the Ultrawide from factor, but the RTX 3060TI just can't drive larger resolutions at faster framerates (one reason I am considering a new monitor is to go beyond 75Hz).
Currently the MSI G274QPX is the same price as the HP OMEN 27QS. I was wondering why you would specifically recommend that one over the omen, as well as how you ordered the other 2 monitors above those (the LG and the gigabyte). Thank you for any info.
I wish there were an option for increased quality at reduced frame rate. I, personally, can’t see a significant difference in anything above 120fps. I’d be happy to take a 120hz monitor at a lower price or with better quality.
Look no further than mini-LED options. KTC M27T20 for $340 or the budget AOC Q27G3XMN for just $279 but with only half the dimming zones making dark scenes have a lot of blooming.
@@anitaremenarova6662 Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll check them out
@@anitaremenarova6662 Do you know when they will restock or discontinued KTC M27T20? I like this monitor alot but it out of stock everywhere I looked.
What about midrange or budget ultrawides at 1440p? Main reason i was watching but it's not here
All we all have to do is watch this all the way to the end
The true star of the channel finally returns (;
Great video as always! Struggling on which AOC to go with... overall value, do you think the Q27G3XMN is the way to go? Them both at the same price makes it very hard to pick...
Lets go! New jason vid
:) Let's GOOOOO!
Thanks for the Info......very informative......Any thoughts on the Samsung Odyssey G95C 49 Dual for video editing?......Its going for $799 on Amazon and is more in my budget.....and should i get an amazon warranty on this monitor? Thank you ahead of time.
The oled is very bad. Very sudden writing items, high response time, and the worst is in the games, the shadows were too black and ne see things that with others yes.Mi asus vg278qr, it looks better, it is faster and bigger screen(oled no is 27p,is more small ,is 26.5p). I didn't want the OLED, it's a scam.My ASUS has an option called Vivpxel and blacks look better than the OLED, as I am glad to have this 27. And it costs only 250 euros monitor(ahh,0,01 ms real...the oled is 2 o more.I put the 2 monitors in parallel and I did evidence. The Oled was worse in everything I compared, and I am already an old dog in this
Which asus monitor do you use?
LOL, „the shadows are too black“. Your problems will come down to not setting the display/picture up correctly. Using HDR?
Does it matter that much if the monitor only supports HDMI 2.0 and not 2.1?
I just ordered samsung odyssey g5 1440p 27” 165hz with va panel for 160usd including shipping do you think its a good deal or overpriced?
Yes. I paid 400 bucks for a similar yet inferior Acer which I have 3 of. This was a few years ago though
The AOC CQ27G2 seems to be out of stock everywhere. Any idea when or if it's coming back?
fr I'm searching for it too...
4:43 I've a NVIDIA gf gtx1070, a monitor with freesync will still working on it if i use the DisplayPort???. I ask this bc u said "all MODERN ☠Nvidia gpus compatible"
I’m thinking of upgrading my 4K ips 27 inch monitor to the Asus woled one that you recommended, do you think this is a good upgrade?
Depends on your system and if it can handle it!
Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQM1A QHD 260Hz is it good?
Just snagged the 240hz LG for $299! Seemed to good to pass up, will wait to see what Black Friday deals and see if I can get a better quality 240hz IPS or maybe an OLED...might stretch the budget to $500.. you planning on another 1440P monitor video for Black Friday deals?
Yes that's a great deal! I'll be covering them in our Black Friday video and I'm posting the best deals I see on the youtube community page and twitter/threads @pcbuilderjason. But yes I posted that one its a great great deal
@@PCBuilderChannel I actually just cancelled the order before it shipped... Snatched up the AOC Agon Pro OLED for $400, cannot believe that price!! Great value and wanted OLED but not at $600+. I have had 2 AOCs for years so I will remain loyal.
What do you think about the LG 27GP750-B gaming monitor?
Do 1440p ips panels have better text quality than va panels? My 1440p monitor arrived today and without doing much research before buying it, i now found out it is a VA panel monitor and reading text is just blurry or uncomfortable to look at. The text is just so pixelated compared to my old 1080p screen laptop.
Zebronics S32a is it good? . I am very confused between acer xv272u v3 and zebronics. Please tell me which is better
The amount of info at the start is amazing, explaining everything i needed to know. I spent hours flicking through videos looking for guide for buying monitor when all i needed was this video. Thank you
Glad it helped!
hey first time watcher. I am enjoying your video.
So glad you found us! Hope you enjoy the content
Awesome video, i cant decide if i want a 27" or 32" monitor for my ps5 pro. The oled look so awesome but little pricey but im willing to spend about 800 for a monitor so which monitor would you choose if your budget was 800
Hp Omen 27QS Open box for $229 or the LG GR83Q for $346?? Which one is the best bang for my buck for best all around quality and performance for FPS 1440 p gaming and also wanting to play more story games . I need to know fast please!
what do you think about the BENQ MOBIUZ EX2710Q, does it compete with this list or is superior?
It's good if priced well where you are but in the US it's not worth it.
Went with the Alienware 2725df and it's a fantastic monitor. Which preset would you reccomended is best for gaming? Creator HDR 1000 seems to be the one I see a lot of people use on these videos would you agree?
Any thoughts on the ASUS TUF VG27AQL3A 27" budget or midrange?
Hows the ASUS VG27AQ in 2024?? Great deal in Canada. Thanks
My best options in my country at the moment is the xv272u and the lg27gp850p-b they are basically the same price over here so which one would you say is better?
im not sure which one to get because i have a gaming laptop. should i get the aoc Q if my laptop has a 4050
could you please review the INNOCN 27G1S Plus?
$170 for 240hz 1440p IPS on Amazon?
I’m hoping he responds because I was looking at this same monitor too. My wife ask me for a birthday gift and I saw this and sent it to her. Hopefully I didn’t screwup.
Nice video.
Why the Samsung G7/G65b aren't in the recommendations anymore?
They are just price too high to compete with my current recommendations. If they come down in price we'll add them to our links but at the moment just not worth the price jump from out picks.
How crazy good is the quantum dot from G274QPF-QD compared to those in same range and below of it?
Great video! What do you think of the Dell 27" QHD 165Hz 1ms IPS LED (G2724D)? I can get it on sale for $150 off where I live.
Good choice
What would be the better panel in your opinion. I'm stuck between the Dell G2724D and the LG GP850-B, I've heard good reviews and both and bad reviews about both and they are the same price in AUS.
I have a medical condition causing me to play from a medical bed across the room, probably for the foreseeable future. I would like to get something like a 50-55" flatscreen type monitor with preferably 144hz+...do you have a recommendation for that kind of thing?
I greatly appreciate anyone who answers this question.
Next tax return I have the intention to build an updated PC, focusing on maximizing 1440p gaming. Was thinking 4080 super, 7800x3d, 32g of DDR5(6000hz), 2TB N.VMe...something like that. But I don't want to have that power and be bottle necked by a crappy output device.
there are no 50-55" gaming monitors. the biggest is 32" for non-ultrawide and 49" for ultrawide with the height of 27-32". only the side is bigger. for 50-55" size, you have to buy a TV.
I have a question, in the video you say that WOLED are usually matte finish. However the XG27AQDMG says glossy WOLED panel in the description. Is this one glossy as a one off and not the norm for WOLED? I would prefer a glossy one so I was wondering if the WOLED technology has matte coating on top despite saying glossy WOLED panel in the description
Any 32" recommendations? I have the M32Q and love it, but I need a second 32" screen and wouldn't go to 4k yet.
If in the US Gigabyte has the GS32Q and it's currently $200
Should i buy the aoc q27g3xmn or the alienware aw2723df for the Same Price
I am currently using a Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 GPU on my Lenovo Legion 5 laptop and I wanted to buy a monitor and plug it into my laptop so I enhance my gaming experience and I really wanted to know your personal recommendation on a monitor you think would give me the best display possible. My budget is around $500. If you could also recommend the exact cables to use to connect that monitor to my laptop, I would greatly appreciate it, thank you! Subscribed :)
That graph at 2:32 shows no cards even hitting 120 fps on average, so why would you recommend 144hz , 240hz, 360hz, etc. monitors if none of these cards are going to hit that in modern AAA games?
Are you suggesting they lower settings to medium or only play games that support DLSS or FSR3 to compensate?
That graph is max settings in AAA games without upscaling. Not how people would actually play with those GPUs. There are plenty of games where those GPUs can hit 120fps and more.
Getting less than 165Hz nowadays is a waste of money
You should check out our Best GPU for Gaming 2024 video for more around this.
Hello, what do you think of this Samsung Odyssey G5 G51C 32 ?
What is your opinion about Acer Nitro XV272U F3 27 inch IPS WQHD. Looks like an absolute steal.
is arm lenght (85cm/33inch in my case)too far for 27inch 2k monitor? it will be on wall mount
Hi I was wondering if you’ve seen the ktc h27t22 and how good of a budget option it is compared to the ones you mentioned
Im looking for a second monitor to put next to my main monitor AW2721D, as I don't want to spend another 700eur for a secondary monitor, what would you go for?
Im considering the aoc q27g3xmn but its like 400$ in eu, is it worth the money? The m27q x for example is like 350$
what the differences between the AOC Gaming U34G3XM and the OC Q27G3XMN you advice? Is it only the size? I don't trust AOC mine fried at 144 MHz just yesterday I had it since 2 years ago...
Is there a cheaper curved alternative to the asrock phantom PG27Q15R2A
I don't think anyone is buying bad monitors in 2024, if they are, it's due to budget. This is easily the year of the best monitors.
Any recommendations for a 240Hz 1440p monitor that’s a curved 32”? Preferably less than or equal to half a millisecond response time.
The only one I see on PC Part Picker is the Samsung Odyssey G65B and it's expensive at $485.
@@kelley09162 thanks for looking. I’ll check it out
What about the Alienware 1440p 240hz AW2723DF? Is it as good as these other 1440p 240hz ones or is the m27q-x and the LG one better? I don’t care about pricing as it’s all within 100$ of each other
Not worth if it in the US as it's currently $500. The MSI G274QPX is a better choice at $350 or the Gigabyte GS27Q X at $280.
Is the acer nitro XF273U good for 249? Or get the LG 27GR83 you recommended for 227 open box at micro center?
Got my Acer Nitro XV272U Z 2560x1440 IPS 270Hz for $227 last year.
It's basically a $500 Predator without G-sync.
Are the Samsung G60SD and the Alienware AW2725DF the same display? They both have similar specs, and Samsung does make the panel inside the Alienware.
I found the asus 27 inch 1440p 170hz VG27AQA1A for $170 on amazon, would this monitor be good for a dual monitor setup? Also, should I get this over any of the recommended budget monitors in the video?
I would put the ASRock PG27QFT1B over it.
The ASUS is a VA and people prefer IPS for Monitors.

Hey @PCBuilderChannel, I’m going back to 27” from my 34”. I was looking at the AOC CQ27G3Z for $279, but as of right now Amazon has the Samsung Odyssey G6 G65B for $299. Which one would be the better monitor? Thanks
Actually there's 3 1440p 240hz monitors linked in the description for $299 I'd recommend! You'll see them marked with the fire emojis. Any of those are a great deal
@@PCBuilderChannel Didn’t see those, I have always favored curved monitors so I guess I’ll be going with the G6. Just worried about the dead pixels, and other issues from reviews. Thanks!
No mini led monitors? Do we still need to wait a little bit more?
I am sure he had shown us one
Just once I’d like to see a 32
Inch recommendation. I get that it’s not a great size for 1440p, but damn I can’t go back to 27” 😢
Check the description! We have some 32inch picks there
@@PCBuilderChannelI see 34” ultra wide but no 32inch options
@@PCBuilderChannel you have them listed but you could talk a little bit about them since I feel that since they are almost all VA we will get into something with a few drawbacks. Me for example, I have ordered a Gigabyte M32QC VA 170hZ, but saw it had a few problems, BUT could have a better option with the Gigabyte G34WQC which you recommended, but I don't know if what I'm getting is just a bigger M32QC, with the same issues, and your input would be greatly aprecciated on that regard.
Keep up with the awesome work, you are already my go to reference in everything tech related.
Does the AOC CQ27G3Z have HDMI 2.0 or 2.1?
Hey man is there another monitor like this one at 13:24 but with lower HZ like 165 or 144 I feel like 360hz is overkill making the monitor unnecessary expensive
For OLED unfortunately not. The cheapest option I see is the MSI MAG 271QPX QD-OLED E2 for $530.
Which of these have the least amount of ghosting/reverse ghosting? I bought a gigabyte GS27Q 1440p monitor but it has crazy amounts of reverse ghosting that cant be fixed by turning off Overdrive.
Out of curiosity why didn't the LG 27GS95QE make it onto the list for OLED? Where do you feel it came up short? I was leaning towards getting it, but now I'm unsure lol
Maybe because it's a new Monitor. It came out this year so maybe he hasn't had time to look at it yet.
It seems like a good choice to me though.
Unfortunately I have issues getting my monitors to display well enough to sit across the room and work with them .
The only 1440p monitors I'll buy are 21:9 units. I've never owned a 32:9, but my brief experience using one was not particularly good. I have a Dell 3400x1440 IPS monitor at 60Hz driven by a 6750XT or a 2070 Super for non-gaming tasks and an Alienware 120Hz driven by a 6800XT for no-RT gaming. I've had both for at least five years, and I'm still in no need of an upgrade.
The PS5 can’t utilize most features a monitor has because it needs a HDMI 2.1 port. I’ve been struggling trying to find a decent 1440p HDMI 2.1 monitor.
Same
I’m having the same problem, ever find any?
Best channel on youtube, straight to the point like always.
Btw, i like your T-shirt !
I upgraded from a 1080p 144hz monitor to the msi 34inch oled with a 4070ti super. First thing I did was play dead space remake, Resident evil 2 and 4 remake all on ultra settings. That monitor is the best gaming purchase of my life. Do I even want to know what 4k is like? 😬
Hello , I’m really enjoying your content and information on the budget side of gaming monitors and if I may ask what are your opinions about the LG Gn600-b ?. It’s available at my local Walmart for $209 and seems like a good option for my Xbox series S since it’s 1440p and can support 120hz . I would order online but had bad experiences with warranty and damaged shipping just easy to go in the store to swap it
This man has early 2000s commercial energy (which 100% a compliment coming from me) as someone who is very visual and sound attention focused, this held my attention and I learned a lot that I definitely did not know beforehand. Will definitely browse more videos. ^_^
So glad you enjoyed!
I currently have LG 45 inch monitor but I’m looking for second OLED screen @ 27 inch to play games that does support 21:9. I’m PC-4090 and PS5. I will use 27 inch for my PS5 as well. I’m thinking about getting the LG UltraGear 27" OLED QHD 240Hz 0.03ms FreeSync and NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible Gaming Monitor with HDR400 what’s your thoughts?
So unfortunately the Amazon reviews aren't great for that Monitor.
@@kelley09162 gotcha I’m going to with 32 inch LG monitor
im in the UK and looking for a monitor, do you think the AOC Gaming Q27G2S is a reasonable choice, the acer you recommend do not seem to be available on amazon and the AOC mini led is almost £435, the Q27G2S is £224.
So looking at PC Part Picker UK the AOC Q27G4X seems like a good option at £220.
Thank you for keeping the prices in the description updated! I was refering back to this video to decide what monitor and see that both of the ASRock monitors have dropped in price. Awesome. looks like a good time to buy. After that I'll start my build.
