No budget? Then grab a LG OLED C9 tongue.gif

Anyway, without a budget you'll end up with super expensive suggestions here tongue.gif

No mention of 144Hz and FreeSync.  doh.gif
But is it OK to use OLED for gaming monitor? I've seen many Samsung phones with burnt OLED.  puke.gif I do own an OLED display (the super tiny one on my HMZ-T2). While the black is to die for, I'm more worried about burn-in when OLED is used as a day-to-day productivity and gaming screen.
As long as don't tell me to import BFG 4k monitor. Not that rich yet.  tongue.gif

It has a 120Hz native refresh rate, and the motion clarity of OLEDs and input lag often far outperform typical LCD panels too (you also don't get issues when you buy a consumer IPS panel monitor like IPS glow/backlight bleed too) brows.gif

Variable refresh rate? There's a firmware update that allows you to use VRR over HDMI (G-Sync for now)
https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/news/g...-available-now/

HDR support is also far superior on TVs when compared to monitors icon_idea.gif

Burn in? I have a Galaxy A5 from 2015 that hasn't have burn in (although the touch sensor have failed) tongue.gif

Do you have the display running for >12 hours per day?  hmm.gif

No, but being it's a low end phone (likely with a lower quality panel) I was still surprised by the fact it still hasn't have burn in tongue.gif

I use it for about 6 - 7 hours per day so your mileage will vary icon_idea.gif

I know some people actually gets tired of panel lottery and went straight to OLED or even a high-end CRT considering buying gaming monitors these days are pretty much trying to play the lottery (either you are lucky and get a proper panel, or having to return your monitor because it has backlight bleed/IPS glow/yellow tint issues), sweat.gif

All most all of the OLED Burn In reported cases are C6 and C7. The C8 and C9 models include logo luminescence adjustment and their aperture ratio is higher so the potential for OLED Burn In is probably closer to zero.

But seriously if you have the money you should really just forget getting LCDs and go OLED instead brows.gif

Yeah. Bought my S2716DG on lottery too. Cukur, no backlight bleed/IPS glow/yellow tint issues.

Dell's QC is actually one of the better ones - try using one from ASUS/Acer with their AUO panels and you are opening a can of worms sweat.gif

Not to mention it is one of the best TN monitors around (although you don't get nice viewing angles but that's just the limitation of TN panels) tongue.gif

Will buy OLED in the future, but 4K RTX rendering is still painfully slow today. Perhaps another 5 years for 4k 144fps to be common.  tongue.gif

But on a serious note however - you should consider getting the 32GK650F (still depends on your budget though) tongue.gif :

(AUO VA, 144Hz, 1440p, Flat, G-Sync compatible, according to some users)

First of all, any preference on size, panel type (TN/VA/IPS), form factor (flat/curved) and refresh rate (60/75/144/240Hz)? hmm.gif

It really depends whether you like curved panels or not (might want to look at some after the MCO ends) icon_idea.gif

The LG 27GL850 is one of the best in the segment, and it fits your budget perfectly icon_idea.gif

Hi guys, saw this monitor over at lazada and was tempted to buy. Is this any good or are there better alternatives?

I don't really game anymore, so mainly for general browsing, lots of Netflix and a bit of work.

This looks like it uses a Samsung SVA panel (likely from the CHG70), although with a custom backlit (note that Philips monitors tend to use a custom backlit, as they are made by TP Vision) icon_idea.gif

Which would one you guys rather at this price range 699 RMB (equivalent to RM 430). IPS panel, 24-inch, good color accuracy are what I'm looking for.
Ignore the fact that I'm buying it from Taobao, they had to be purchased from China and well-known brands like Samsung and LG are generally more expensive there.

AOC | Model: 24B2XH | 75Hz 23.8"
https://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a230r...e27b&abbucket=8

Philips | Model: 243V7 | 60Hz 24"
https://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a220m...b8c549ef3458123

Xiaomi | Model: XMMNT238CB | 60Hz 24"
https://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a220m...65b6bf1625c4911

I guess I'm leaning towards to AOC because it a pretty renown brand in Asia, but I have doubt in its reliability, I hope someone can press their past experience.
There seems to more buyer in the Philips model compared to AOC (no idea why), this Xiaomi's monitor is relatively new and with fewer reviews, so there's a risk there. Though, I have high hopes for Xiaomi hardware, as they are more willing invest more in quality and material imo.

Senpais, please lemme know your genuine thoughts.
*
The Xiaomi uses a Panda IGZO panel (the Acer VG240Y uses this panel as well) icon_idea.gif

Personally I'd go with the AOC, due to its higher refresh rate icon_idea.gif

P.S. most monitors at this price range don't really have good color accuracy - if you want good color accuracy you will need to pony up a lot more for a professional grade one icon_idea.gif

I use Panelook/TFTCentral panel database, or in many cases, reading through the monitor specs tongue.gif
https://www.displayspecifications.com/en/model/9ca71cd3

Both the AOC and the Philips one uses a 6 bit panel with FRC to achieve 8 bit color depth, so my pick would be the Xiaomi as it uses a true 8 bit panel icon_idea.gif

remove the "must be HDR" requirement, no such thing as true HDR for monitors under 3k, because all the "HDR" you see in their descriptions are advertisements and a gimmick. these are the monitors that are capable of true HDR: ROG Swift PG35VQ and Acer Predator X35
since your budget allows, try Gigabyte Aorus FI27Q-P RM2690
if you want cheaper but performs similarly, try LG 27GL850 RM1899 (iirc garage sales selling at 1850)
if you really focus on movies and do light gaming, and you don't mind curve display, then i'd suggest VA panels such as ROG Strix XG32VQR RM2125
if you want ultrawide for best movie experience + the black level of VA panel, MSI Optix MAG341CQ RM2668

now it's your choice  icon_idea.gif
*
The funny thing is for the price of the ROG/Predator you can get something like an LG OLED TV which will outperform these monitors at a lower price sweat.gif

hi guys can recommend me monitor for gaming purpose. im currently on laptop with 60hz so my laptop display not good for gaming although running on RTX2060 (didnt go thru specs during buying last time lol)..

my budget is around RM600-RM800..i saw this two model which is around my budget

1. AOC 24G2 (1920x1080 @ 144Hz IPS) price at RM769
2. Acer NITRO VG240P (1920x1080 @ 144Hz IPS) price at RM699

should i hook up on hdmi or displayport? which one is better?
*
Hardware Unboxed did a review on the AOC, and it is considered one of the best monitors you can buy at this budget icon_idea.gif

My rule of thumb is to always use DisplayPort on PCs, unless the PC doesn't have a DisplayPort, then HDMI is perfectly fine too (you may lose Adaptive Sync if you go this route though) icon_idea.gif

Looks like moisture has entered the gaps between the polarizer and the display panel itself sweat.gif

This is quite common on older monitors, especially if they are used in a humid condition (I have a Samsung 18.5 inch monitor that does that, although to be fair it has lasted me for about a decade before I eventually moved on to a 144Hz monitor) icon_idea.gif

You need to replace the polarizer, but it's not something easy to do (you can scratch the panel by accident) icon_idea.gif

i see that acer ED273A quite cheap, is it good?

How much do you want to spend anyway? hmm.gif

1080p at 27 inch is going to look quite pixelated so either go for a 24 inch one or a 27 inch 1440p panel (although you need a faster GPU to drive your games at this resolution and refresh rate) icon_idea.gif
