I had a look at that, though it had a 4ms response time?


RE: Recommend me a monitor/what one of these are the best? - Pete - 2015-12-29 00:44

What you lose in response time you gain through a crisp, vivid display. Are you really going to notice a 3ms difference? No.

I bought the ASUS VG248QE 24" last week and i couldn't be happier, do NOT get a 60hz monitor, the difference between 144 and 60 is MASSIVE. I was in shock for like 10 minutes when i first played csgo on 144hz. Response time is meh, but hz isn't Wink


RE: Recommend me a monitor/what one of these are the best? - Chuck - 2015-12-29 08:39

If you have the choice, go for 1280 px 1200 px height, instead of 1080. It really is some extra value. For instance, you can have 1 or 2 additional rows of desktop icons or watch a fullhd video in windowed mode (with menubar and startmenu) without losing a thing.

*correction: 1200 is the common value

I don't understand too much about monitors , but i recommend you little and better monitor than a big and low specs one.

I have one monitor of 29" , and for games , its a little big.


RE: Recommend me a monitor/what one of these are the best? - Adorable - 2015-12-29 09:39

Go for the 144Hz monitor.

I overclocked my monitor from 60Hz to 75Hz and there is a noticeable difference.

Only go for 60Hz if you haven't got a powerfull computer that could generate 144fps.

If you are looking for ultra smooth gameplay, I would look for a monitor with G-Sync knowing that you have a GTX 980. I would go for this: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Acer-Predator-XB270HAbprz-Monitor-Displayport/dp/B00LX2J17W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1451387887&sr=8-1&keywords=g+sync+monitor+1080p


RE: Recommend me a monitor/what one of these are the best? - Sam - 2015-12-29 14:26

Completely forgot G-sync was a thing, decision was made so much tougher!

Anyone know what that will be like? 144hz, 1ms


RE: Recommend me a monitor/what one of these are the best? - Sam - 2015-12-30 13:48

I have a question, if I get a 144hz monitor and drop below 144fps, won't it be all juddery? How do people avoid that?

Dont know your budget, but this seems a pretty good choise, but if your budget is lower then this or that look like good choises. All of these have 1ms response time and 144hz refresh rate.


RE: Recommend me a monitor/what one of these are the best? - Sam - 2015-12-30 19:53

Monitor ordered, thanks for all the help guys!


RE: Recommend me a monitor/what one of these are the best? - Elmo - 2015-12-31 02:19

Don't get a 1080p monitor any bigger than 24" unless you have bad eyesight or it's going a long way away. Any larger really needs at least 1440p (depending on size of course)

Which did you go for?


RE: Recommend me a monitor/what one of these are the best? - Sam - 2015-12-31 02:46

I went with this one: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/aoc-g2460fq-24-1920x1080-tn-widescreen-144hz-1ms-gaming-led-monitor-black-mo-024-ao.html

Nice and cheap with decent specs, reviews seemed positive about it too (not just the ones on that site), went for a cheaper one as I'm planning on getting a G-Sync monitor in the summer (IF prices become reasonable).

warning to anyone that wants their delivery to arrive on time and have decent customer service, don't go with overclockers haha, paid for next day delivery and its now 2/3 days late. Such a bad company.

Me and my brother always purchase our parts and stuff from Scan. I found your monitor here I think: Scan It looks to be a little cheaper too, not much though. Never had any problems from them.
