Gaming Monitor discussion

[bvb24]

Since we have a thread for headsets I figured we could use one for monitors as well. I think I'm ready to bite the bullet and pick one up. Considering this: http://www.amazon.com/BenQ-GW2765HT-...eries+GW2765HT

Any input would be appreciated.

This is the BenQ I use for everything (xbox, ps4, and pc)

http://www.amazon.com/BenQ-XL2720Z-G.../dp/B00GWFNMJS

I will never go back to a regular TV. I didn't realize the difference it would make going to a high quality gaming monitor. I love it to death, was worth every penny.

You will need to do some calibrating/adjusting yourself to get the image you prefer. I have a profile saved for each input (a different setting I use for xbox, PS4, and PC individually).

Yup...Same here the BenQ monitors are awesome for gaming.

I need to return mine to get the 1440p model for my new gaming rig

Re: Gaming Monitor discussion

this is my current monitor
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PXYRMPE/...ing=UTF8&psc=1

decided to go the ultra-wide route. loving it so far outside of a few games that just wont support it at all(Dragon's Dogma). Haven't tested it out with any intense games yet(hoping to try out The Witcher 3 eventually). mostly just strategy games where the extra wide view has been very good.

I have a 24" secondary monitor I use, an Asus monitor, i believe it's this one
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...=ATVPDKIKX0DER

use it to full screen videos that are less than 1080P on and for web browsing when gaming on main monitor. Might look into getting a 27" 2560x1440 monitor for the secondary at some point, but I'm good for now.

I posted the wrong link. I'm looking at this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/reviews/...t?ie=UTF8&s=sd

Only using it for my ps4, if I had a gaming pc I would look for a higher refresh rate. Any other reason I should be looking at more expensive monitors?

Re: Gaming Monitor discussion

I'm using a LG 34" 2560x1080 monitor for a primary on my PC, with a second montior a QNix PixelPerfect via Ebay that is 2560x1440.

Love them both, but want to upgrade to a 3440x1440 34", probably the X34 from Acer, something with G-Sync.

I have that exact monitor. Only using it for PS4, and a little bit of Amazon Fire TV. ZERO complaints.. it's fantastic for the price.

That X34 is having a lot of problems I've been seeing. I'd wait to pull the trigger on that $1,200 monitor

Re: Gaming Monitor discussion

Yeah, is more of a target specs-wise I suppose, haven't kept up with issues because not buying it soon.

Yeah, that's the one. No need to have better specs than the consoles support, so it keeps the price down. They're perfect if you're not also using for PC.

Yup - I'm very happy I bought it in spite of people trying to dissuade me from it when I bought it due to apparent QC issues
