Hi, guys.

Wish to ask some opinion before I break my bank for a G sync monitor.

Want to get a >=27" GSync Monitor.

Looking at Viewsonic XG2703-GS and Dell S2716DG.

Which one is a better buy? I used my PC for gaming and works. Is there any other good recommendation if my budget is around 3k?

Or I should break my bank even more and go for >=30" GSync.

Thanks.

predator X271HU should fit your budget nicely with 2560x1440 rclxms.gif

or

if you decide 2 break more then predator X34 will be your great option with 3440x1440 flex.gif

Thanks for the info. I bought XG2703-GS and so far satisfied with it.

Guys, need some opinion on getting a new main monitor. Time to use my Viewsonic XG2703-GS as secondary monitor.

I am looking for 38" or min 34", use it primarily for office works and gaming.

Did some googling and shortlisted Dell AW3821DW and LG 38GN950-B. Any opinion on this? Or other better suggestion.

Thank you.

Was looking at the same options, until Just It in Brem Mall quoted me RM4400 for the Acer X38S. Freesync functions from my RX6800 seems to work just fine with it, despite it being a G-sync Ultimate monitor.

Was using a Philips 346B, which I now gave to the wife.

Thanks for the info. Will have a look at Acer x38S.

Should I buy the Alienware AW3423DWF

I'm itchy and want it, but there's one problem: text fringing.

I doubt I'll be able to find a demo unit to test on, including the Samsung OLED G8 where both share similar screen.

The text fringing on my Asus Vivo OLED 15 is only visible when my face is directly against the screen.

They are not a problem in normal use.

I'm appreciated if any AW3423DWF or AW3423DW users can test and let me know if you can see text fringing when using the monitor at a distance of about 60cm.

Thanks.

Hi. I was on an IPS screen previously and recently bought a Samsung OLED G8 as my main screen. The distance between my eye position with my screen around 45cm. Using the monitor for my works, research, Netflix and some gaming. After using for 2 weeks, I felt that the text fringing is overblown by those youtuber and reviewer. I didn’t realize any difference compared to my previous IPS when I am using it for completing my work tasks. The only times that I felt the words a bit "greenish" is when I move my eyes to around 10cm from the screen. Overall, this is a very very good monitor. Done everything that I need, which I expected from a RM7k+ monitor. After works or gaming, 1 button at remote and on my Netflix for drama. Plus the built quality so solid, metal stand and frame. Looks better than the Alienware.

Edit: grammar

Currently the OLED G8 is on RM600 offer. The panel is matte or glossy?
