Re: Gaming Monitor discussion

for 30 dollars more you can get the IPS version which is far superior in picture quality. Viewing angles, contrast, color depth.



Best 1440p monitor

Yeah I thought that was the one he was talking about. Yes get the ips panel, it's the best monitor I played on.

Re: Gaming Monitor discussion

So i saw that Micro Center lowered the price on the ASUS 27 inch 4k hdr1000 gsync monitor at 144hz to $1199

I got to the store and bought it and notice it was the last one after seeing they had 3 early that morning on the website.

I get home and notice that the enclosed screw that you twist on the base of the legs is missing so i cannot screw the base legs to the monitor

So frustrating for this to be the case and now they sold out

Not sure if I should hold on to it until they get more in to avoid a price increase as i get 30 days to return it

Last thing I want to do is return it and wait for a new one that when it arrives they put the price back to $1500

I know right? But I seen some videos on it and most new games support it. Seeing how Madden 20 and NBA 2K20 look on it blew my mind and Fifa as well

Re: Gaming Monitor discussion

Quick question - looking to add a monitor to my office setup to replace an old 24" (I have a three monitor setup - this will be my primary). I'm looking to use my PS4 Pro with it, and I have a LG 27UK600-W on hold on Best Buy as an open box for $200.

I saw all of the positive reviews from last year/early this year, is this still a solid pick with 4k and HDR being the primary requirements.

Great 4K SDR monitor. If you want a real HDR monitor it’ll cost you a lot more. I’ve disabled HDR on mine since I noticed SDR looks a lot better and less washed out on these monitors.

Yeah, so 29" ultrawide @1080p vs. 4k non-ultrawide, if it's all PS4 Pro - I would think the 4k would win out at a 18" or so viewing distance.

ultra wide is for pc only, consoles do not support ultra wide

Re: Gaming Monitor discussion

I went with the LG 27UL600-W at Best Buy on an open box, it's a bit more than I wanted to spend, and I debated getting the 32" Dell that's $350 (https://www.bestbuy.com/site/dell-32...?skuId=6375331)

The 27UL600 was $375 open box, but I wasn't sure if 32" would be too big for my primary work monitor and I didn't want the drop in resolution.

Any thoughts? I have two weeks to take it back, no PC gaming, just PS4 Pro and work.

The Dell is a waste of money for ps4 pro as 165hz is irrelevant for ps4 pro. Also its 1440p and wont scale well for pro

These 1440p and free sync 4k monitors are only great for xbox one x

The LG you got is great for the PRO in SDR mode as it is 4k and the pro upscales to 4k

I tried a 32 inch monitor at first and it felt too big. I think 27 inch is the sweet spot.

I agree, I just got it all dialed in and played some Show and Madden on it, wow, I have a mid-level 4k/barely HDR 60" TV (Samsung KU6300) downstairs. This is much better, I'm sure it's partially because I'm sitting 2' away instead of 8' or so, but still.

My only thought is that I could get the UK600-W for about $150 cheaper, just without a stand. I was thinking I could just pickup a VESA 100x100 stand and save some cash. Any ideas the difference between the two and whether it's worthwhile?

Also, what do you guys typically use for speakers?
