Wolf#Peace Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Any 144 hz with 24 inch of size at least would be good, I would recommend the samsung shg50, gaming monitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also with freesync mmmm @AwesomeMcCoolName dunno if you're into monitors but this seems pretty good, and its samsung 22 hours ago, Loogi said: asus vg248qe Exactly $399. 24" and inbuilt speakers which are nice. 144hz Looks possible a bit of a thicker border then the wolf one. No freesync Though i do get $30 gift card if i buy it before 31st of december lmao -------------------------------------------------- Both same brightness and response time.... Leaning towards the samsung as it has freesync and I think i'd prefer that over speakers, plus $20 cheaper. Hopefully Awesome can provide some input.

AwesomeMcCoolName Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Freesync doesn't do anything with an Nvidia GPU, so it's not the biggest deal right now (although looking forward it could be a detriment). Response time is pretty meaningless since there is no consistent way of measuring it. The speakers built into monitors are all pretty terrible. Just try and find reviews for both and see how they compare/which suits your needs/preferences better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow i just checked pcpartpicker for the cheapest 144hz monitor, it was $189 and i was like damn may as well just do that Realised i was on US change to aus and the cheapest is 349, next is the VG248QE lmao So if we convert that, americas cheapest is $251 aud, and ours is $349 AUD Living in Aus sucks for stuff like this (also what do u mean by the detriment?)

It's got a very thick border irltho (measured about 1 inch border) for the monitors i've seen anyway But worth the upgrade? The only thing that'll be missing is the USB ports on the side, but I don't even use them and didn't know they were there until i googled this monitor RN @AwesomeMcCoolName Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never heard of Agon, but I think it's the same as AOC? Either way, I can't speak much about either -- just look up reviews. But from a quick look, the 31.5" looks better as it's bigger and has a better panel (VA instead of TN). Response times are basically irrelevant.

Looking at reviews, http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/2562465 Its only 1920x1080 and people are saying that 1080p wont look good on a 31.5" monitor let alone a 27" For some reason it lists the 2560x1440 i said on pcpartpicker https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/VQX2FT/aoc-agon-ag322qcx-315-2560x1440-144hz-monitor-ag322qcx but on the selling websites i found its only 1080p....

And maybe @Wolf#Peace lel Honestly, both 1440p and 1080p look kind of meh on such large scales. If Windows scaling didn't suck and I had a more powerful GPU and wanted to spend the money, then I'd upgrade to a 24" 4k monitor in a heartbeat. Anyway, that's kind of besides the point. I personally think the better colors of a VA panel outweighs the pixel density -- but to each their own. Your choices are really all over the place, 31.5" 144hz 1080p, 27" 144hz 1440p, and 24" 144hz 1080p.....decide what your priority is and then go with whatever that priority is. Do you want a giant screen? Do you want the better colors of an IPS/VA panel? Do you want a higher pixel density? Do you want something curved? Do you care about freesync (right now you can't use it, but in the future you might get an AMD gpu before you get a new monitor)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you care about freesync (right now you can't use it, but in the future you might get an AMD gpu before you get a new monitor)? Dont care about freesync cause i probably wont be using an AMD GPU at all (at a 1060 and ill be going to a 1080 in the future probably). Curved isnt really necessary but it'd be cool but i really dont need it I cant really have a screen bigger then 31.5 probably anyway as it wont fit my desk, i think 27" would be my preferred but im good for anything Colors of an IPS/VA panel would be nice Higher pixel density would be nice I'll basically rank them for you and maybe you could help me find a good one. I want a 144hz one so thats pretty obvious to you, the other features of what you said rank: 1. 144hz 2. Color IPS/VA Panel 3. Higher resolution (more then 1920x1080) 4. Higher pixel density 5. Giant screen 6. Curved 7. Freesync If you could help i'd really enjoy it! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
