Weird. Sorry. Must’ve got mixed up somewhere. The original B&H link took me to the UltraGear 47.5" product page.

After messing with the settings and watching numerous YouTube videos I just can’t the look that I’m going for. I loved almost everything except the flat colors.

Last night I packed it up and took it back to BB and swapped it for the LG C2 42” and what a difference. I have a CX 55” and this thing is beautiful. Colors pop out the box. I will need a little time to adjust to the size on my desk but the several extra $100 was worth it.

Trying to figure out a monitor to get. Need one with at least 120 fps for PS5 and Series X. I have a monitor that’s like five years old. It was a 4K LG one many mentioned on here years ago. I want a C1/C2 tv, but I mostly play in a gaming room with a monitor so if I am going to buy something I’d rather go that route.

Quick question, do you still feel this way now that a lot of HDMI 2.1 monitors have been released?

My job gave me two monitors to work from home with. But I only need one, and recently saw a Facebook post from this guy who used a monitor instead of a TV. Suddenly he could hit a 100 mph fastball in MLB The Show due to the lack of input lag.

So I decided to try it, since the pitches are most realistic when the pitch speed slider is set to 10. On my 4K Samsung, I couldn't do any higher than 7. But when I had it on this cheap monitor set at 10, suddenly those fastballs where I'd be lucky to foul off the other way were ending up smashing a window on Waveland Avenue.

Not just that, but switch to "Enlisted". Suddenly I'm the one getting my shot off first. Madden, suddenly Justin Fields is avoiding a sack and is hitting his receiver for a first down. FIFA, now my defender is sticking his foot in the way before the shot could get off.

So now when my wife will let me, I'll see about getting a real gaming monitor.

Isn't 2.1 needed for VRR?

That's nothing to sneeze at for the consoles.
