@@carlosmolina292You can always return it if it has an issue, but it's IPS miniLED, it doesn't get any better. And the price is amazing, it's cheaper than AOC.
I have 2 34in OLED’s. The Alienware DWF from this video and the 34in LG UltraGear that has Anti-Glare(Matte Finish. Will say I like the LG more. Hate matte finishes, but something about this one I like.
Hi, what about the KTC H27T27, IPS, 2K, 100 Hz, 1440 P, FreeSync and G-Sync, HDR10, VESA... which can be found for under $100 ? (found in europe for 120 euros)
Thats what I'm here for. I know my next monitor will be an ultrawide, but its still going to be awhile, so I want to stay up to date on whats best. Currently my pick is the MSI 491CQP, but curious if anything else has come out to dethrone my pick.
Yes, I’m waiting on his ultra wide video too. I’m eyeing the Alienware AW3423DWF and it’s currently on sale for $649.99 USD here in the states. So close to pulling the trigger…
@ if it helps, the AW3423DWF is the most popular QDOLED ultrawide (at least for 165hz). And is highly regarded and recommended. If it’s at a good price I’d say get it. Also he does have a few videos on the DWF. I’ve recently purchased the 240Hz MSI MPG341CQPX version.
Could you tell how you guys use the ultrawide? I can only see the productivity benefit. When I was working in office, the upgrade from one 1080p monitor to adding even some squareish old one was big, much less alt-tabbing, and 2 proper 1080 ones were great, but still at time I wouldn't mind a third one, lol. But at home I never felt that I need more than one. But I also only watch stuff or play games.
I bought the LG 32GQ850-B off their website for $350. First time moving to 32", maintaining 240 hz and 1ms response, but switching from a VA to (nano) IPS. It's hardware calibrated, looks good out of the box, and has a great stand. It was a big difference in my replay of Nine Sols for line and color clarity during movement. I haven't ever had a good experience with HDR, so this one's weak HDR isn't a concern. It did suck going from curved to flat again, though. lol I want an OLED in the future, but I currently cannot justify spending the huge amounts on my ideal monitors right now, since they're $600-1300. Now with hindsight, I don't recommend VA panels. I love ultra high framerates, but I'd recommend getting a great-looking IPS with a lower refresh rate ceiling of 144-180 hz. You'll save yourself money (especially if staying under 4k), and likely get an actual better viewing experience on the more affordable side.
I really appreciate your content, esp on monitors. I've purchased several through your channel in the past, as well as several recommendations on PC related products, due to doing PC builds for myself, family, and friends. It seems that I'm always needing a monitor with these builds for some reason. This may be the only way I can show support for your channels. Thank you both for presenting these.
Will you guys ever tackle 43"? Got an ROG VA right now but the ghosting is downright annoying and have been wanting to change it for a while now. Don't care much for UW or OLED but a general roundup would be really appreciated. Well that's if you guys are able to get enough of them to test out.
You say for 350$ you would get a side-grade with MSI G274QPX if you want a higher refresh rate, or another monitor if you want hdr. But which other monitor is that?
I’m really enjoying the trend toward “by feature” comparos you have taken, in this case the feature being price. I find it a much more useful way to choose a tech product, and I for one, thank you for the time and effort of going a different way. Much appreciated.
Just got my hands on the ASUS PG32UCDM, was thinking of the P model. But the M model went on black week sale. So that was my pick. And i am happy. This monitor is absolutely stunning
The MSI MAG 271QPX was on sale for $530 recently. It's a great deal at that price, now that MSI added the ability for it to receive firmware updates. Especially for the large number of people who think 4K is trash for gaming (low FPS) and 32" is too big for a gaming monitor. 32" is MASSIVE - it's pretty annoying.
32 is too big if you seat close, you need more distance to see the whole 32 monitor at which point 1440p would be perfect for 32", i'm saying that but i have a 27" 1080p. As i don't seat far enough for a 32", i'm seating at 50/60 cm from the monitor
Almost two years ago, I managed to buy a brand-new monitor for the incredible price of €100 (including tax and everything). It's a SAMSUNG 1080p 27-inch CRG5. The specifications are: 240Hz Curved VA gaming monitor that also supports G-Sync and FreeSync. It was the last sealed box in a local store in the EU. They wanted to get rid of it in order to showcase the newer models. I still use it almost two years later and I'm still surprised I got it for this cheap. VA is a decent technology, but I still love how an IPS one looks. The next one will surely be an IPS
Wheres the acer nitro xv275? 4k mini led with insane hdr and great contrast around $600, theres no way u take the 1440p woled over the acer, unless ur gpu is bad or u play games like CS2 or Valorant.
Philips evnia 49" 240hz oled for 1000€ for me. I don't see anything aproaching the value anywhere else atm. Minor cons because nothing is perfect, is reminder to refresh pixels every 4 hours (they should do it like TVs where it runs auto when going in standby so it would ask much less often) and the text is not 100% perfect for productivity, but it's fine and I can't stand my super crisp IPS next to it with its washed out colors and gray blacks anymore side by side, so I'll take it. Everything else is gorgeous, and the usb-c PD is really fantastic, I can plug my laptop and all my peripherals switch to it while charging it. Granted I push 240 only on old games with a RX6800, but the card is fine for 120 in modern games, you don't need a monster either.
The successor to the AOC Q27G3XMN, the G27G4XM, is out in China, and will probably get a global release date soon. It has all of the same features as the former monitor (1440p, 180hz, HDR1000) but upgraded to 1152 dimming zones and changed from VA to IPS, so hopefully black smearing and bad viewing angles will be less of an issue. I'd love to see a review on that when it comes about as it will hopefully be a pretty decent upgrade over the Q27G3XMN for around the same price. I'm holding on my monitor purchase until then.
I was about to get the G27G4X, but your comment caught my attention. Mini-LED and 1000HDR sounds hella good over the inferior version. However I was not able to find anything about it, except official Chinese AOC website, and it did not have a price tag there. Do you have any information about it?
None unfortunately. I've decided to just go for the XMN as I'd rather not wait 6-9 months for the monitor to come out, and for reviews. If it comes out later then I'll probably just pick it up for a dual monitor setup.
@@xephorix heard alot of good stuff about thr XMN model, but I just cant decide if i want to go with the VA route. I play a mixture of single and multiplier games. To my understanding is that XMN is amazing for single player games. Oh and some peeps online sweae that VA is absolute crap, and IPS is the minimum a person should get. What do you think? How is your experince so far with the XMN?
It hasn't arrived yet, but I can tell you that when you get a GOOD VA panel that isn't too much of an issue. If you play fast-paced FPS games then you might want to steer clear of it, and go for an IPS instead (maybe something like the Xiaomi G Pro 27i. I tried that out and had a good experience with it but had to return it due to minor color inaccuracies as I use my monitor for artwork, outside of that I thought it was great). but VA usually isn't nearly as bad as people say it is. and for the price I've heard it's an absolute steal.
Waiting for more miniled options is killing me. I want to use HDR so badly but I cannot justify buying an OLED while burn in is still a risk. I keep my monitors 5+ years minimum, and usually just give them to others after that, so I simply cannot trust an OLED to last that long without SOME form of damage.
Burn in is a non factor pretty much. Change a few habits and you'll be good. Most companies give 3 year warranty.. if you're that bothered, burn it close to the 3 year point and get a replacement
For me the AOC 25G3ZM or Philips Evnia 25M2N3200W were the target. Both with VA panel since I'm a casual 1st person / strategic gamer, and after proper calibration they were excellent. (Finally I chose the cheaper one, with 31.5% VAT in my home country, nothing's simple.)
Are there any true HDR Capable options besides the AOC in the 300-500$ range? Primarily wondering if there is a 4K HDR option that's good in that range (not obsessed with HRR beyond 120hz+VRR support)
I just bought a LG Ultragear 27Gr75Q-B 165hz for 170€, my old monitor died and I was surviving only with my 4k TV, still feel it's not a improvement over gaming on the TV (visuals and overwhelming by size), but Gsync works on the LG, can't say the same on the tv. It's my first IPS, I would prefer a 32'' inch for gaming but at this price I couldn't wait more. It feels some games achieve better performance in 1440p on the monitor than on the TV (more fps).
12:12 Slight correction on the name shown on screen for the $1000 monitor. The MSI 321URX is "MPG" not "MAG" like the 321UPX. You DO get this correct in the video description links though. I only noticed cos I am thinking of buying this monitor. BTW, it's currently around £1200 (over $1500) in the UK and the ASUS PG32UCDM is very slightly cheaper.
Which one do I get? - Gigabyte M27Q X for 265 Euro - LG 27GR83Q for 360 euro (±320 on sale) The MSI G274QPX isn't available here anymore, yeah for 500 euro's lol.
Hello sir, would you mind making a list of the best monitors for PS5 PRO? MiniLed, Oled, VA, for all bugdets, thank you so much. Also I want to know if you can review the Xiaomi G pro 27i and know if that's enough for a PS5 PRO.
Just bought a hp omen transcend 32 oled monitor, when are you going to be reviewing this monitor? Bought because of the specs on it and on sale at Best Buy for $999 right now. There is LIMITED info on this thing all over the internet. Just curious if you’ll ever get around to reviewing it and giving your thoughts on it.
I really want to get the LG 32GR93U but literally everyone who bought it said that the screen broke after around a month of use, it's a shame that LG made a really nice monitor but gave it little life expectancy
Meanwhile, i bought the msi G32CQ4-E2 for real world 250 bucks, it has some blur, mainly at lower refresh rates, but the difference in size from a small 27 inch screen is BIG. My cat destroyed it, so i was researching what else could i buy to replace it, and i ended up buying it again, because there is simply no other gaming-usable 32 inch monitor for that price that i know of. The only other monitor i was considering was the 27" AOC Q27G3XMN/BK, but its out of stock in my european country.
Would you be willing to look into what sort of 16:10 // 3:4 options are available on the market today? More of a productivity and/or secondary monitor focus than gaming.
I would love a video about the ultimate monitor set up. I think a lot of us are balancing gaming, work and watch TV on our monitors, and it's rarely good for all tasks. A video showing the ultimate set up would be a cool video to watch.
Thanks for the great content! I'm wondering if you will get the chance to review the MSI MAG274QRF-QD E2. It's currently selling in my region for ~270$ which is almost half the price for which the original sold, and I would love to see your professional opinion on it. It certainly has some interesting features, but also some aspects that leave me a bit wanting.
I'm not very knowledgable on tech so I ordered an AOC C27G4ZXU. It should arrive in a few days. I already have the Alienware DWF but I only use it for the "cinematic" gaming experience. I needed a monitor to do the static job with decent refresh, decent colors, doesn't burden my PC, and easy to move when I want to use the DWF. So I hope the AOC C27G4ZXU is good. EDIT: My current "work" monitor is an old Samsung S27D590CS with some burnt pixels.
i'm using the Skyworth H24G30F rn that i got for $94, 24" FHD 180hz with good color tuning and decent aftersales (atleast in Indonesia). i've been using this monitor for the past month and i'm loving it (switched from a crappy 60hz laptop display)
Can you review the Koorui GN10 and KTC M27T20 monitors? Both are 27in, 2560x1440, HDR 1,000, Mini LED VA monitors under $300. This puts them in direct competition with the AOC Q27G3XMN for entry-level HDR gaming.
Where would you say the sweet spot is where you get the most quality for your money? I'm thinking it might be just when you enter the cheapest OLED panel territory, but before they turn too premium.
Managed to snub the dell for 230 euros actually just right now. I am very excited. My budget was just that. I hope I made the right choice. It was either that or the HP omen 27 for 180 euros
Why are all the 4k options too small. Well guess they might be ok for productivity use? Definitely not good for "competitive" gaming though. You don't want to waste fps on pixels that are too small to see.
Not a huge fan of the $400/500 recommendations. I'd rather stick to 1440p for performance (5800X3D + 4070 TI). Also randomly jumping to 4k / 32" is a choice when the other cost recommendations go back to 1440p and 27"
Can we get a ultrawides updated video? There is very little recommendations out there for people who don't want to go OLED due to burn in risk when using it for mostly productivity reasons.
Thanks for the review, Tim! I just got the (new?) Acer Predator XB323QK V3, it's a 32" (31.5" actual) 4K IPS, 160hz, and it's available right now on Newegg for $600. I'm pretty impressed with it's overall quality, and it'll do me very well for at least a few years until OLED has evolved some. The primary reasons I didn't go with an OLED are the non-RGB subpixel structure and the nausea-inducing flicker.. I'll add that I did have a ASUS PG32UCDP for about a month, and returned it for those specific reasons, though there were other annoyances too. I do wish the Acer had HDR (the Acer has the "not really" HDR that a lot of non-OLEDs claim but don't offer), but overall I'm ok with my purchase.
Please dude, make a review of the Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQML1A, basically no one is talking about it even though it's an IPS panel with 240-260hz refresh rate and it's VERY budget friendly.
The Dell G2724D is currently (November 19, 2024) on sale for $149.99 on dell's website. 27" 1440p 165hz measured by rtings to have acceptable contrast, backlight bleed, and good color accuracy. Usually $200. Hopefully, the sale goes to the end of the week.
I was looking at the msi g274qpx for $330 but the lg27gr83q went on sale for $299. Do you recommend I pick that lg monitor up over the msi now that it’s under $300? Please and thanks!!
I was doing the same thing. If you check out the "Best 1440p Gaming Monitors of 2024 [November Update]" video, he says the LG is the one to get if both are the same price. So I thought it was a steal at $300.
For those in the UK, you can currently get the samsung odyssey G8 34 inch ultrawide for cheaper than the alienware DWF if you get it direct from the samsung shop. So long as you dont fall foul to samsung's alleged QC issues its the more premium monitor and has more features including being a smart TV.
I just started to search for a good 1080p 144hz monitor. Im right on time with this one! Only thing is, Im from the EU and evrything is like 10-20% more expensive
All I want is a ~27" with 1440p on 120hz+ and as high image quality as possible, for combination of production and gaming. 4k is still too heavy for my GPU budget, I'm on 60hz so doubling it is more than enough.
What about ultra wide monitors? I'm trying to decide between a standard 1440 or an ultrawide. I also don't like any 1500r monitors they are too tightly curved.
I picked up the Lg 27GS93QE on amazon for $600 and am loving it. Has really high brightness and i feel like its better than the ASUS XG27AQDMG because of the 2.1HDMI support. Dont sleep on this monitor idk why monitors unboxed doesnt review the newer version with much higher peak brightness. Only difference between the LG 27GS95QE and 27GS93QE is that it doesnt have the LED lighting on the back making it much cheaper.
Advertising spots are fine, but on a monitor video you should be advertising a motherboard or power bank, not a monitor. Even though I know and trust you guys it gives the appearance of a huge conflict of interest.
Please review the successor to the Dell G2724D, the G2725D. I want to know if it's a downgrade to the G2724D even though it's supposed to be the newer version of that. It's also cheaper it looks like, at least when on sale.
I need advice on a monitor for a very niche situation. I play on my PC from across the room in a medical bed...so I need a larger display. I'd say what I'm looking for is 48-50", 4k, HDR, with probably somewhere around 120-144hz.
ordered the LG 27GP850 for 200€ which seems like a steal to me here. Was reaaally considering OLED but since i do a lot more than just content consumption it doesn't make sense for me :(

The successor to the AOC Q27G3XMN, the G27G4XM, is out in China, and will probably get a global release date soon. It has all of the same features as the former monitor (1440p, 180hz, HDR1000) but upgraded to 1152 dimming zones and changed from VA to IPS, so hopefully black smearing and bad viewing angles will be less of an issue. I'd love to see a review on that when it comes about as it will hopefully be a pretty decent upgrade over the Q27G3XMN for around the same price. I'm holding on my monitor purchase until then.
I was about to get the G27G4X, but your comment caught my attention. Mini-LED and 1000HDR sounds hella good over the inferior version.
However I was not able to find anything about it, except official Chinese AOC website, and it did not have a price tag there.
Do you have any information about it?
None unfortunately. I've decided to just go for the XMN as I'd rather not wait 6-9 months for the monitor to come out, and for reviews. If it comes out later then I'll probably just pick it up for a dual monitor setup.
@@xephorix heard alot of good stuff about thr XMN model, but I just cant decide if i want to go with the VA route.
I play a mixture of single and multiplier games. To my understanding is that XMN is amazing for single player games.
Oh and some peeps online sweae that VA is absolute crap, and IPS is the minimum a person should get.
What do you think? How is your experince so far with the XMN?
It hasn't arrived yet, but I can tell you that when you get a GOOD VA panel that isn't too much of an issue. If you play fast-paced FPS games then you might want to steer clear of it, and go for an IPS instead (maybe something like the Xiaomi G Pro 27i. I tried that out and had a good experience with it but had to return it due to minor color inaccuracies as I use my monitor for artwork, outside of that I thought it was great). but VA usually isn't nearly as bad as people say it is. and for the price I've heard it's an absolute steal.
@@xephorix Interesting take. Thank you!
Waiting for more miniled options is killing me. I want to use HDR so badly but I cannot justify buying an OLED while burn in is still a risk. I keep my monitors 5+ years minimum, and usually just give them to others after that, so I simply cannot trust an OLED to last that long without SOME form of damage.
I'm in exactly the same boat. Looking for a 1440p or 4k mini-led monitor for true HDR. I don't want an OLED due to burn in too
I've been reading these miniled daydreaming comments for like 5 years at this point. Apparently theyre perpetually just around the corner
Burn in is a non factor pretty much. Change a few habits and you'll be good. Most companies give 3 year warranty.. if you're that bothered, burn it close to the 3 year point and get a replacement
@@KcKeeganwhat habbits, i have 3 monitors and i am not using the 3 all the time and i won't be turning them on and off every time.
@@KcKeegandudes saying he wants 5+ years... A 3 year warranty is well less than 5 years.
Once again reminded the Q27G3XMN isn't sold in my region. rip. :(
Maybe there is the acer nitro xv5 xv275up3biiprx which is pretty much the same
Monitor is full of issues, better avoid it if you dont like black smearing and awful ghosting. Reviewers usually dont showcase how flawed it is
@@GoldSorcery do you have any alternatives for a good mini-led VA screen then? Koorui Gn10 or odyssey?
you're not missing out on anything
The monitor isn't even all that.
I'm stuck between the MSI G274QPX VS ASUS ROG STRIX XG27ACS. ROG STRIX is about $60 cheaper. Is it worth upgrading to the MSI?
This msi monitor is trash
Also slight error at 11:14 you are highlighting the wrong Dell
For me the AOC 25G3ZM or Philips Evnia 25M2N3200W were the target. Both with VA panel since I'm a casual 1st person / strategic gamer, and after proper calibration they were excellent. (Finally I chose the cheaper one, with 31.5% VAT in my home country, nothing's simple.)
I really thought there would be more ultrawides on this list.
Dell 27 is on sale for 150 in US. Directly from the dell online store
Can you please Test the Xiaomi g pro 27i? It is Mini LED with 1000+ dimming zones and ips for 300 Euros. There are not manny reviews on it
Which ones gave built in speakers?
Are there any true HDR Capable options besides the AOC in the 300-500$ range? Primarily wondering if there is a 4K HDR option that's good in that range (not obsessed with HRR beyond 120hz+VRR support)
Thanks, I was watching your old videos last night and today you made my day. Wohooooo
I just bought a LG Ultragear 27Gr75Q-B 165hz for 170€, my old monitor died and I was surviving only with my 4k TV, still feel it's not a improvement over gaming on the TV (visuals and overwhelming by size), but Gsync works on the LG, can't say the same on the tv. It's my first IPS, I would prefer a 32'' inch for gaming but at this price I couldn't wait more. It feels some games achieve better performance in 1440p on the monitor than on the TV (more fps).
Is there an ultra widescreen version of this video?
Would appreciate g-sync compatibility listed
12:12 Slight correction on the name shown on screen for the $1000 monitor. The MSI 321URX is "MPG" not "MAG" like the 321UPX. You DO get this correct in the video description links though. I only noticed cos I am thinking of buying this monitor. BTW, it's currently around £1200 (over $1500) in the UK and the ASUS PG32UCDM is very slightly cheaper.
Dell G2724D selling at $150 on Dell US website during November 2024. Can't beat that price in my opinion.
YESSS I'VE BEEN WAITING THIS VIDEO FOR MONTHS
should i get the AOC Q27G3XMN or the Dell G2724D they are almost the same price
Which one do I get?
- Gigabyte M27Q X for 265 Euro
- LG 27GR83Q for 360 euro (±320 on sale)
The MSI G274QPX isn't available here anymore, yeah for 500 euro's lol.
Hello sir, would you mind making a list of the best monitors for PS5 PRO? MiniLed, Oled, VA, for all bugdets, thank you so much. Also I want to know if you can review the Xiaomi G pro 27i and know if that's enough for a PS5 PRO.
How about 21:9 Mini LEDs?
Just bought a hp omen transcend 32 oled monitor, when are you going to be reviewing this monitor? Bought because of the specs on it and on sale at Best Buy for $999 right now. There is LIMITED info on this thing all over the internet. Just curious if you’ll ever get around to reviewing it and giving your thoughts on it.
No mention of the MPG 341CQPX QD-OLED? 🤔 Costs too much?
Thanks! But please, can you state MiniLED models in your charts, so it is easy to spot them? :)
I love these videos! Best pick in each price category is very useful guide.
Begging for a 5K 120Hz monitor. I'd love it to be QD OLED too but i want good full screen brightness with no brightness adjustment on normal mode.
I would be interested in an esport version of this video with bigger focus on hz and input lag
I really want to get the LG 32GR93U but literally everyone who bought it said that the screen broke after around a month of use, it's a shame that LG made a really nice monitor but gave it little life expectancy
Meanwhile, i bought the msi G32CQ4-E2 for real world 250 bucks, it has some blur, mainly at lower refresh rates, but the difference in size from a small 27 inch screen is BIG. My cat destroyed it, so i was researching what else could i buy to replace it, and i ended up buying it again, because there is simply no other gaming-usable 32 inch monitor for that price that i know of. The only other monitor i was considering was the 27" AOC Q27G3XMN/BK, but its out of stock in my european country.
Would you be willing to look into what sort of 16:10 // 3:4 options are available on the market today? More of a productivity and/or secondary monitor focus than gaming.
Thanks for the amazing video!
Do you plan to review the: AOC Agon AG276QZD2
It seems to be an "updated" version of the first model
I would love a video about the ultimate monitor set up. I think a lot of us are balancing gaming, work and watch TV on our monitors, and it's rarely good for all tasks.
A video showing the ultimate set up would be a cool video to watch.
Tim is the only youtuber with the LG 27GX790A sponsorship because he's the only one who can pronounce it.
Thanks for the great content! I'm wondering if you will get the chance to review the MSI MAG274QRF-QD E2. It's currently selling in my region for ~270$ which is almost half the price for which the original sold, and I would love to see your professional opinion on it. It certainly has some interesting features, but also some aspects that leave me a bit wanting.
Do you do review of best productivity monitors to do in duel setup and maybe only game here and there?
I'm not very knowledgable on tech so I ordered an AOC C27G4ZXU. It should arrive in a few days. I already have the Alienware DWF but I only use it for the "cinematic" gaming experience.
I needed a monitor to do the static job with decent refresh, decent colors, doesn't burden my PC, and easy to move when I want to use the DWF. So I hope the AOC C27G4ZXU is good.
EDIT: My current "work" monitor is an old Samsung S27D590CS with some burnt pixels.
i'm using the Skyworth H24G30F rn that i got for $94, 24" FHD 180hz with good color tuning and decent aftersales (atleast in Indonesia). i've been using this monitor for the past month and i'm loving it (switched from a crappy 60hz laptop display)
Can you review the Koorui GN10 and KTC M27T20 monitors? Both are 27in, 2560x1440, HDR 1,000, Mini LED VA monitors under $300. This puts them in direct competition with the AOC Q27G3XMN for entry-level HDR gaming.
Where would you say the sweet spot is where you get the most quality for your money? I'm thinking it might be just when you enter the cheapest OLED panel territory, but before they turn too premium.
Managed to snub the dell for 230 euros actually just right now. I am very excited. My budget was just that. I hope I made the right choice. It was either that or the HP omen 27 for 180 euros
Why are all the 4k options too small.
Well guess they might be ok for productivity use?
Definitely not good for "competitive" gaming though. You don't want to waste fps on pixels that are too small to see.
As always.. another gr8 content.. tnx
Greeeeeetings from Tripoli, Libya 😅
what would be your prefered display if price is NOT a huge factor. AOC Q27G3XMN/BK Gaming MiniLED or Gigabyte M28U?
I just got the g6 360hz for $580 with a free 990 pro 1tb! The receipt has the monitor under 500 which I think is a steal!
The only amazing deal i've found living in EU is the Samsung Odyssey G60SD
Not a huge fan of the $400/500 recommendations. I'd rather stick to 1440p for performance (5800X3D + 4070 TI).
Also randomly jumping to 4k / 32" is a choice when the other cost recommendations go back to 1440p and 27"
Hahaha, yeah at 27 unless doing graphic work or photoshop type work 4k is useless for gaming, and at 32 1440p is good for budget gamers.
Can we get a ultrawides updated video? There is very little recommendations out there for people who don't want to go OLED due to burn in risk when using it for mostly productivity reasons.
Thanks for the review, Tim! I just got the (new?) Acer Predator XB323QK V3, it's a 32" (31.5" actual) 4K IPS, 160hz, and it's available right now on Newegg for $600. I'm pretty impressed with it's overall quality, and it'll do me very well for at least a few years until OLED has evolved some. The primary reasons I didn't go with an OLED are the non-RGB subpixel structure and the nausea-inducing flicker.. I'll add that I did have a ASUS PG32UCDP for about a month, and returned it for those specific reasons, though there were other annoyances too. I do wish the Acer had HDR (the Acer has the "not really" HDR that a lot of non-OLEDs claim but don't offer), but overall I'm ok with my purchase.
Please dude, make a review of the Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQML1A, basically no one is talking about it even though it's an IPS panel with 240-260hz refresh rate and it's VERY budget friendly.
The Dell G2724D is currently (November 19, 2024) on sale for $149.99 on dell's website. 27" 1440p 165hz measured by rtings to have acceptable contrast, backlight bleed, and good color accuracy. Usually $200. Hopefully, the sale goes to the end of the week.
I picked up the GS27QA yesterday. IPS panel, 180Hz, Quad HD-I’m hoping it’s good. Couldn’t find any reviews on it, though.
Excited to see what the prices will be during black friday on some of these OLED monitors, prices currently a bit too high for me (in EU)
I was looking at the msi g274qpx for $330 but the lg27gr83q went on sale for $299. Do you recommend I pick that lg monitor up over the msi now that it’s under $300? Please and thanks!!
I was doing the same thing. If you check out the "Best 1440p Gaming Monitors of 2024 [November Update]" video, he says the LG is the one to get if both are the same price. So I thought it was a steal at $300.
For those in the UK, you can currently get the samsung odyssey G8 34 inch ultrawide for cheaper than the alienware DWF if you get it direct from the samsung shop. So long as you dont fall foul to samsung's alleged QC issues its the more premium monitor and has more features including being a smart TV.
Sometimes you can get refurb G80 32inch for like £750 too.
i would like a review of the Samsung Odyssey OLED G8 G80SD 32" (LS32DG802SUXEN)
Thank you for doing these!! All these videos helped me easily buy the MSI MPG321URX earlier this year. Completely stellar
I just started to search for a good 1080p 144hz monitor. Im right on time with this one! Only thing is, Im from the EU and evrything is like 10-20% more expensive
All I want is a ~27" with 1440p on 120hz+ and as high image quality as possible, for combination of production and gaming.
4k is still too heavy for my GPU budget, I'm on 60hz so doubling it is more than enough.
What about ultra wide monitors? I'm trying to decide between a standard 1440 or an ultrawide. I also don't like any 1500r monitors they are too tightly curved.
I picked up the Lg 27GS93QE on amazon for $600 and am loving it. Has really high brightness and i feel like its better than the ASUS XG27AQDMG because of the 2.1HDMI support. Dont sleep on this monitor idk why monitors unboxed doesnt review the newer version with much higher peak brightness. Only difference between the LG 27GS95QE and 27GS93QE is that it doesnt have the LED lighting on the back making it much cheaper.
Could you test the Pixio monitors?
What happened to the Samsung G8? It's as low as 700€ here in germany. I'm almost certain I'll buy it this week
Advertising spots are fine, but on a monitor video you should be advertising a motherboard or power bank, not a monitor. Even though I know and trust you guys it gives the appearance of a huge conflict of interest.
Please review the successor to the Dell G2724D, the G2725D. I want to know if it's a downgrade to the G2724D even though it's supposed to be the newer version of that. It's also cheaper it looks like, at least when on sale.
Got the LG 32GR93 for 430€ 🥳 Very happy with it
I need advice on a monitor for a very niche situation. I play on my PC from across the room in a medical bed...so I need a larger display. I'd say what I'm looking for is 48-50", 4k, HDR, with probably somewhere around 120-144hz.
LG B4 48" 120Hz OLED ($650)
With the rise of new gaming tv's for lower costs, have you considered reviewing a few?
ordered the LG 27GP850 for 200€ which seems like a steal to me here. Was reaaally considering OLED but since i do a lot more than just content consumption it doesn't make sense for me :(
Thanks for sharing such valuable information! I need some advice: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
Are there any budget ultrawide monitors that you recommend?
