I'm getting gtx 1070 and i would like to change my monitor which is 60hz 1ms TN panel. I already do my research some said that 144hz good for fps gaming (all im doing is gaming no video editting). But after seen certain experiment in youtube, modt people cant even differentiate 60hz and 144 or even 165hz. Mostly i play star wars battlefront. Prefer only 1080p monitor as my gtx1070 isnt juicy enough for 100fps+ gaming. My budget is arround rm1500. Hope any sifus here can help me figure out my needs.😄

Have u experienced the 144hz monitor yet? If no, u should try and demo it to feel the difference.

Watching youtube review doesn't do it's justice at all tbh.

i wish i could try demo, but its not that simple. i dont have any friends having such monitor or even willing to spend much on computer. and the experiment in youtube is like blind test experiment. like for example random monitor (60hz or 144hz) and most ppl guess 60hz monitor are 144hz monitor.

You can go to lyp to demo the monitor, some shops do provide 144hz> monitor demo.

urmm what is lyp? hehe
so how about ur opinion 144hz or IPS?

Lowyat Plaza, the difference is noticeable with smoother display for fps game I would say.

For moba is mehh..

My setup was 980ti + rog pg278q (tn panel)

And now I don't have time to play games anymore :/

PG278Q 1ms input delay and 165hz gsync 2k reso, badass, except sacrifice a litte color accuracy and viewing angle for better input lag. Also tn panel doesnt have screen edge bleeding or glowing, whatever it is.

Sometimes i feel like just buying a fast tn instead of ips

If you are able to increase your budget to 1.9k, then you can get Acer Predator XB241H even though it is a little overpriced, 1080p 144Hz TN with GSync.

If cannot top up then 1.5k can get you a normal 1080p 144Hz TN without GSync (need around 1k only).

If you want IPS then sorry to tell you that all non-gaming grade IPS monitors still stuck on 60Hz.

It is out of my budget. Current monitor in my mind are VG248QE = RM1549 and XL2411Z =rm1199 at lingloong. Both arent g-sync enabled.

Wait for asus promo rog card + rog monitor

Is g-sync worth the run? It just like adding extra 100$ tu the budget. Cant i just use v-sync enabled? Or there are greatly noticeable different from from g-sync.

When there would be?

Usually upon releasing new card, bundle purchase promo.
Can see the patern since few years back.

Either combo mobo + card or card + monitor.

what a good deal as i also looking to upgrade to skylake. now just waiting til JULY for non founder edition to come.

Alternatively, u can follow official ROG Malaysia facebook acc for any updates.

Good luck TS

GSync allows dynamic frame rate (limit to at least 30 though) and makes your monitor refresh rate the same as the frame rate output from your GPU so it feels smooth and no tearing.

There are plenty of videos on YouTube which demonstrate the technology of GSync vs VSync.

1899 for a 1080p GSync TN panel is quite expensive TBH, adding 600 more will get you a 4K UHD GSync already haha.

I intend to buy a monitor.
May I know your price of your old monitor?

From 60hz to 144Hz, you will notice a significant improvement especially when playing FPS. From 144Hz to 165Hz, the difference will hardly be noticeable.

As you are intending to buy a GTX1070, it makes better sense to get a monitor that supports G-sync. As for the monitor's panel, TN will be your best bet given your budget. Additionally, you will also be limited to 1080p resolution.

BenQXL2411Z or Acer XB240H should fit into your budget

do correct me. Benq XL2411Z (rm1199) doesnt support G-sync while Acer XB240H (RM999) support g-sync

Gtx1070 quite powerful to run at decent fps at 2k

If u don't play fps intensive game, try 2k monitor ips panel.
The graphic is amazing. Sadly I see no difference with 2k to 4k
