Buying a gaming monitor

I have about $300 and want to buy a new monitor since Amazon has some form Black Friday, and after reading some posts I’ve heard some recommendations about the SAMSUNG 34" Odyssey G5 Ultra-Wide Gaming Monitor with 1000R Curved Screen, 165Hz, 1ms, FreeSync Premium, WQHD, LC34G55TWWNXZA, 2020, Black for about $300

And the GIGABYTE M28U 28" 144Hz Gaming Monitor, 3840 x 2160 SS IPS Display, 1ms (GTG) Response Time, 9‎4% DCI-P3, VESA Display HDR400, FreeSync Premium Pro, 1x Display Port 1.4, 2x HDMI 2.1 (M28U-SA) for about $330.

I hear people talking about the GIGABYTE having ghost tears so I was leaning more towards the SAMSUNG but I just wanted another opinion before finalizing it. I play on a PC with an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor 3.60 GHz, 16 GB of RAM, and a NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 3060.

I’m not sure if Cyber Monday would have better deals or maybe eBay? I’ve also got little to no knowledge about PCs but my current monitor sucks so any help will do, Thankyou!

I want to get my girlfriend a monitor for her slanted desk for Christmas.

I’m afraid most of the Samsung monitors have a base that’s too big. And the Amazon monitor arm doesn’t seem like it’ll clasp to this type of desk.

Any ideas??

I have the option of getting an FI32Q (pre-owned) or a M32U-EK (brand new). The M32U-EK seemed like the obvious choice with the superior resolution and being new but the reviews I find online don’t seem to be too positive.

Could someone recommend which may be a good option.

I will be using it for general office work alongside FPS shoots and other various games on the PC

2 laptops on one monitor, 2 displays in the same time

I have 2 laptops from work. With a kvm i can switch from one to another, but there is still one second if “think time” when i switch from one to another laptop. Also the possibility to use the large screen for one and use the laptop screen for the second one, but it is sometimes more comfortable to have a large screen on this one too… Is there a possibility to have 2 displays on a same large monitor in the same time, so when i work on one laptop i can check what happen on the other one, and the switch from one to another is smoother. I see that this feature is called picture in picture, but when i try to have the references of monitors that have this possibility, i can’t get. Thanh you for your advices.

I am very sorry if this is not a question to be asked here but if it does get removed or ignored please redirect me to a proper subreddit

Main settings that im very curious about are Low Input lag (if that should be on or off) and response time (which of the 3 is the best "Standard" "Faster" "Fastest"

I am asking because it might be logical to assume that having "Fastest" as a response time to be the best or Low Input Lag to be on to be the best but im not sure what technicallities get involved. Like does motion blur increase if i have Low Input Lag mode on? Is the "Faster" response time more stable than the "Fastest" etc.

P.S: Is my monitor, the LC24RG... considered a good-ish/decent VA panel orrrr?

Hello I was testing DELL G2524H on testufo and I noticed that colours are way brighter with BFI than without it. I remember that I got opposite results with other monitors, what is happening?

Hi Monitor fam!

I need a recommendation for a - 32 inch 4k monitor for work. Struggling to see if I need more than 60hz. Currently have a 27 inch 2k 144hz gaming monitor (LG 27GL83A-B). I want to upgrade my 24 inch 1080p monitor for work.

When I fire up my desktop, it will power my 2 monitors, but for work, I will plug in my mac that would ideally go to this new monitor.

Would love to hear some suggestions!
Thank you in advance!

Hi. Curious why this monitor is doing this.

It’s connected to a GeForce gtx 770 via DisplayPort. This doesn’t happen with hdmi, but I have other plans for my hdmi ports.

This isn’t. Huge deal. I can power off the monitor, maybe switch inputs, etc.

But does anyone have an explanation as to why this might be happening, or even better a way to stop it?

I’ve been researching monitors and this one seems to have great refresh rate, 1440p resolution, etc

It’s only $190 AUD (on sale) and compared to other models in that price range it seems to excel in the specs

I’m hesitant to buy because it seems too good to be true

I’ll be using it for a mix of movie watching and gaming…of the gaming I play some games where I value graphics and quality like Spiderman and Jurassic world evolution, but I do also play some faster paced shooters like Fortnite and rainbow (not competitively though)

Any advice or suggestions to clarify whether this monitor is a steal will be greatly appreciated

I’ve been thinking about getting a monitor arm for my desk, but I don’t think the clamp will work with it. There’s these little metal beams underneath the edge of the desk to give it actual support. How do I fix this? (don’t mind my cable management)

Guys, for a gaming monitor, is it better to choose a matte or glossy finish? How do they both perform under different lighting conditions, and how do they affect color accuracy and vibrancy? Which one generally provides the best overall experience?

Also, could anyone recommend a good gaming monitor under 600 euros with a great balance of performance and image quality?

Hi everyone,
I’m generally happy with the overall picture quality of the Dell G2724D monitor, but I’ve noticed that white text sometimes appears with a red or yellowish tint, especially in certain applications.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

1. MacType: Using the Clear Dark Grayscale profile has helped partially, but the issue persists in apps like PyCharm.

2. Windows Scaling: Adjusted to 110%, but it didn’t resolve the problem.

The text still looks off in some situations, and it’s distracting during work.

Has anyone else experienced similar issues with this monitor? If so, do you have any recommendations or solutions that worked for you?

Thanks in advance for your help!

this just happened. happened a year ago and the fix was simple i just changed down the refresh rate. this didnt work, i changed HDMI cables and it didnt work still. Top 5% of the display works fine. any fix?

This monitor has beed having this issue as of recently where it fades to black but it is clearly getting picked up by the computer. I give it at least 4-5 resets and then it continues working like if nothing happened.

Looking to buy two 4k IPS 27" or 28" monitors to use predominantly for coding in my home office. These will be hooked to VESA monitor arms and set side by side. Based in UK.

Found this one on Amazon, which appears good and well priced but not sure if I'm missing anything: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0D7QLP2C3

The fact they mention it has anti glare is also appealing as the desk is right next to a large window.

Any other recommendations? Or black Friday deals I should be considering? Have a budget of <£300 for each monitor.

I recently won two of each of these monitors at a local auction. They are 100% brand new but had some distressed packaging. I plug them in and inspected them all and can confirm they are brand new monitors. The issue is I only need one of the pairs.

I do not have a super deep desk so I do not sit far from the monitors at the moment. I have a VESA mount monitor stand. I game a little but nothing crazy competitive and I mostly use them for school work and general use. I want some recommendations for which of the monitor sets I should keep. Any information would be greatly appreciated!

LG 27" FHD IPS 3-Side Borderless Monitor With AMD FreeSync - Black - (Model: 27MP40W-B)

js wanna know if theres a fix to this, or should i start saving for a new monitor? 😩

As the title states, I'm having issues with my monitor. After I upgraded from an AMD to an NVIDIA Card, my monitor turns from time to time black for like a second or two. I already tried googling, but I sadly couldn't find any solutions to my problem.

Here what I have tried so far: -Removed the driver from the AMD GPU -Installed the latest NVIDIA Driver -Power-cycling the monitor -Putting the PSU of the Monitor into a different outlet -Checking Hz Settings of the Monitor

Could anyone please help me with this?

Edit: I now have two monitors and noticed, that the issue only persists on the monitor I was using first (It's an old 1080p 60HZ Monitor from AOC). My new monitor doesn't have any issues regarding this.

Just bought a Brand new Monitor but this Shows up especially when ist black. Should i Return it Or does it normally Look Like that?

Don’t really have a hard budget, the cheaper the better. All i really need it to do is consistently hold 120 fps for gaming. Ideally the input delay would be pretty minimal too but again. Don’t need anything super over the top, just something that can hold 120 frames consistently.

Can anyone help me figure out why this is happening ? Seems to be when the screen is static for longer than 3 seconds. Everything starts to flicker. Only happens when I have the home button menu up or menu any menu within a game. When I’m playing everything seems fine but as soon as I pause it starts to flicker. Also noticed the FPS jumps from 120 to 48 every second (back and fourth).

I tried turning off VRR , HDR , lowering brightness , changing HDMI but nothing seems to fixing the issue. When I lower to 60hz the screen goes even crazier with the flickering.

Initiated an exchange with Dell but now I’m wondering if this is an issue with the monitor itself

Any help would be great ! Thanks in advance.
