Acer XB271HU... using one. Supreme!!!!!!

I watched some review on youtube regarding this model it's supreme, however how's the bracket ? i heard some of the review mentioned that the bracket shaky, hope you can clarify it.

I don't feel it bcs my table very steady

i see, will consider about it. how much you bought ?

What's your budget?

Budget MAX 3k

I brought it at lazada during sales. RM 3088 after discount

I have the predecessor XB270HU and seem like Malaysia been getting Acer monitor with good QC. Haven't heard of anyone complaining, at least not in LYF.

I vote for >100Hz too, with Gsync or FreeSync depending on your GPU if you're gaming. (changing GPU soon?)
If you're not gaming, it'll be wiser to stick with Dell 60Hz IPS panels and save a heap of money.

Thanks for your feedback, might get one soon after upgrading my GPU.

i thought dell IPS panel monitor is good enough? at least for me

Just bought Asus MG279Q. Awesome IPS 144hz monitor. Colors very vivid and it has Freesync if u r using AMD cards. But the freesync is only 35-90hz.

But if u have awesome graphics, 980ti or furyX, 144hz gaming n ips monitor, really is an awesome experience. Using furyx in my pc

Dell ultrasharp more than enough or if you game and need more than 60hz acer predator all the way

just upgrade ur gc to better experience

Yes, i'm upgrading to GTX 970

dell s2716dg ,acer xb271hk.asus pg279q

S2716DG using TN panel, however is it worth to go for dual high end monitor or just normal 60hz will do ? I'm not a hardcore gamer either.

tumpang thread looking for same thing as TS but budget not as high as his

so whats the cheapest 27" 2k resolution monitor available in malaysia market ?

But 2k monitor are not cheap

yeah i know need that bigger desktop space

How about Samsung u28e590d 4k 28inch monitor with rm1.8k price tag

not sure my gc can push 4k during gaming

U still can choose 2k resolution at 4k screen

hmm yeah true..
any other models ?

After certain time, i planned to go for dual monitor dell U2515H (1440P)

This post has been edited by Raymond T.: Feb 19 2016, 07:21 PM

Good choice..

That's a very generous budget.

at RM 2k - 3k range it's always QHD - 4K UHD resolution.

Our BL2710PT is one of them, at RM 1,999 http://www.benq.com/product/monitor/BL2710PT/

Any recommendations, besides the Apple Thunderbolt Display, for a 27", 1440 paired with a mac mini? As i know, resolution above 1080 need to go on either thunderbolt or MDP.

https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3884555/all

Acer XB271HU - 27-inch 1440p 144Hz IPS G-SYNC Monitor

Best 27 inch QHD 2K monitor with phenomenal colors and 144Hz (165Hz with G-SYNC).

Just that set back is the latency of 4ms which is normal for all new IPS panel, and last but not least is the brand ACER. Not sure how good is the QC, you know paying high price...

Else you can go for asus pg279q that is equivalent spec. Else sacrifice some 65hz and take acer predator x34 with ultrawide display.

All the above has the same led panel ah-ips if not mistaken

TM monitor not nice

Should use IPS 4k

Ok , double up rm1.8k , haha

Haha yeah dam right

Perhaps maybe helpful for TS.

So now i am having similar headache, trying to aim for 27in monitor...usage will be mixture of everything, photo editing, movies, and gaming...

For this model U2715H, i think the colors will be amazing. But on the other hand, with this model S2716DG, i will have fast response time but then the color gamut will be a lot less...

Is TN panel really not recommended and should i just go with IPS panel?

I am currently using a very old Samsung monitor and kinda outdated with the progress already...thanks in advance for feedbacks/advice to be given...

i know this monitor is REALLY expensive but the Acer XB271HU its god mode & trust me its a totally different world when you use it for gaming. But i guess u need min a gtx 1070/980ti to power it.
dont go 1440p if yr gpu cant handle it. Korean monitors are also great sadly you need import...delivery & transport if scary from so far away.

If u use for video editing , go for ips if u can , but I need to remind u about ips light bleed issue ,

As for gamer like me , I stick with my s2716dg, tn panel won't be my issue

BenQ SW2700PT - Using for gaming and photography..
Purfectttt!! and can instant change b&W mode and various mode....below 3k...
ada jalan if want

any suggestion for 27"inch 1440P IPS monitor?
doesn't need 144hz or GSYNC, just 60hz will do (low budget )

Crossover 27V 1440p IPS
RM14XX

Check out my signature~

I do import Korean monitors for quite some time dy.
No problem so far.
Check out my signature

no warranty is a drawback for me..

So far no customer had any problems though

In my opinion... for monitors especially... it is either you get a defective product or non defective at moment of purchase... especially dead pixels... if everything is fine... high chances your monitor will last for years without any issues....

I provide perfect pixel guarantee service and I check, take picture of the monitor before shipping.

agree

my graphic card only have single dvi port , 1 hdmi and 3 display port.... can't support the crossover monitor.

Nowadays, all the new models have HDMI and DP ports

i saw ur thread and also check the crossover mon, it only support dual dvi.

Which model?
You mean QX2414 144Hz ?
That one has 2 versions.
Dual-dvi input only model is overclockable to 177Hz, while there's another version with HDMI support but can't overclock to 177Hz.
I have 4 threads nowadays..
Too many models coming out every month

PM me for more details and discount

hi all, what is the lowest price anyone here manage to get for Dell U2715H?

Guys got any recommendations for a monitor 27" IPS around 1k that won't have ghosting or motion blur?

you're asking an unpossible question to answer...

ok how about 4-5ms response time XD haha, I'm currently looking at the Viewsonic VX2776-smhd and the AOC I2769VM both about 4-5ms GtG?. I'm currently using a S2340L which has response time of 7ms and i'm not having much of an issue so are there any other better recommendations or which of these should I pick from.

wanna ask in the end u change what monitor ? lol

Dell UltraSharp U2515H 1440P 2 Unit

Now I'm think wanna get Dell ultra shape 27 Inc or 24 144hz monitor .....danm headache....budget only 2k.....27 144hz all RM 3k overkill for me

This post has been edited by commanderz: Dec 3 2016, 10:40 PM

I have just bought a 31.5 inch 1080p monitor from AOC with free-sync for RM1,850.

Frankly, I will always go with bigger screen as a monitor if price permits.

Saw my friend recommend an AOC 31.5 widescreen monitor look not bad ....since I dun really care of g sync or free sync ...RM 1850 only.....model is AG322FCX

This post has been edited by commanderz: Dec 5 2016, 03:39 PM

Wtf lol...I just post only hahaha ya I think is this monitor my friend recommend me....I feel stupid if currently 24 Inc upgrade to another 24 Inc monitor with only 144hz and I dun even have the good graphic card

Going from 24inch to 24inch with better specifications will result in very little changes in "experience from gaming".

I always suggest going for a bigger monitor, if possible.

Of course, it would best to go with Acer Predator x34a or Asus Swift 34 inch Monitors but it would be very expensive as well.

Nope ...those are super overkill ....unless I'm get donation like ah jib ......not really that hardcore level

I am currently using a 47inch Full HD TV at home as a monitor for the past 3 to 4 years.

Planning to change to 4k TV soon. Probably early next year or so.

I'm just using BendQ XL2720Z with GTX 970. So far so good with 144hz but no G-Sync though. Last time I didn't set my monitor to 144hz... in 60hz got tearing even in cut scene and graphic I put medium setting only.

Which game (were you have put medium settings only) are you referring to?

Borderlands Pre Sequel and Rise of Tomb Raider.

I haven't set my monitor refresh rate. That's why got screen tearing. Even in 30fps also tearing. I pandai pandai suspected my graphic card maybe cannot go high.... Haha... Silly me.

Right after adjusting the refresh rate... All setting I set to high and unlimited FPS... No problem for Borderlands but PhysX I put medium cuz I heard ppl said Borderlands didn't optimized it.

Tomb Raider haven't try though.

Not possible at that budget - either you raise the budget for a proper 1440p 144Hz IPS (with potential panel issues such as backlight bleed), and costs significantly more (nearly 3-4x your current budget), or scale back to 1080p 144Hz TN.

Also 144Hz monitor requires massive GPU horsepower (depending on the games you play and the settings), you might want to look into dual GPU setups.

If you have the money (I mean you have 20K to spend on a monitor) then the Dell UP3017Q is essentially the best monitor you can buy since it's the only monitor with

1. 4K
2. 120Hz refresh rates
3. True blacks (i.e. infinite contrast ratios)
4. No ghosting, as OLEDs do not suffer from such issues

The only limitations are OLEDs are prone to burn in, and there are very few manufacturers that are willing to put resources into OLED manufacturing.

i think should buy ViewSonic vx3209 with 2k 32inch free-sync in the price near rm1199.
(waiting for the stock now)

Wow, nice price.

I probably get that for my office in the future.

Wanna ask where u buy ? Online or lowyat plaza ?

Bought from Lazada (ie. Online).

dun see it at lazada....but other online website got @@

VIEWSONIC VX2757-MHD

Is this a good deal?

Looking for a decently-priced FreeSync monitor myself, too. Anyone with this monitor care to share a review?

Dilemma between 24 inch and 27 inch monitor

Also, does BenQ GW2470HM and Dell SE2717H come with speaker? If not, any other 24" or 27" recommend?

Was aiming for G sync 27" or 32" monitor but they always cost a bomb. Maybe I will lower down my aim to 1440p monitor instead. Not gonna aim for 144Hz since that requires very strong GPU and I don't have that.

Bro, ur GPU strong like shit but u r gonna stay with 1080p? Can enlighten the reason why?

I am buying a 4k tv for my gtx1080 probably next year. Researching on the 4k tv i want.

The 31.5 inch monitor is for my malaysian home setup with a gtx970.

In that case what would be the budget 27" or 32" monitor for gaming? Refresh rate or resolution more important?

What was the model name of the AOC monitor that you bought?

EDIT: Found it, it was AOC Agon AG271QG. Wow 1920 x 1080 for 31.5"? The pixel gonna irritates the hell out of me.

This post has been edited by Duckies: Dec 7 2016, 04:08 PM

You can refer to goldfries review for AOC Agon.

For me, i am used to it as I am using a 47 inch tv as a monitor and it is only 1080p.

Try to search dell s2716dg, but it cost rm2600 with 1440p screen , gsync, 144hz

i found this on the site, i think this should be a good deal.
gaming series. but only in 12/12/16-14/12/16.

This post has been edited by commanderz: Dec 8 2016, 08:15 PM

Anyone actually tried gaming using the Dell IPS monitor? Currently I am using an old monitor but with 1 or 2ms response time so everything is smooth so far...but the monitor start to have some buzzing sound so I guess it is just a matter of time before I need to replace it....

With gemfive having rm200 discount code now... is it worth getting the Acer Predator for rm2999?
