New Monitor

[Lelios1]

While looking for a 1440p monitor I stumbled across the Dell S2721DGF 27". It does feel a little too premium as I only have a 1060 but the plan is to keep the monitor for quite a few years since I don't imagine myself needing 4k anytime soon.
Has anyone had (or heard) any bad experiences with it or would choose another monitor over it?

Im gonna break my monitor i swear

 

[Bojing]

I WAS SAYING THAT AS I READ THIS THREAD AHAHAHAHAH

Please stay away from AOC, they have terrible ghosting with their overdrive and there is almost no way to reduce it

particularly this model which I have AOC CQ32G1 31,5 Inch QHD

what are you gonna need a 4k monitor for?

 

[Mekls]

only have a 1060

Made the same mistake, just get a good 1080p monitor. You're not gonna get the benefits of 2k (not that huge), and you'll have to play on poopoo graphics

1440p only actually noticeable when text is displayed not really in games, except from shit you'd use anti-aliasing for. 1060 sucks for 1440p, cant play shit unless its old or esports title without lowering graphics significantly.

Wouldn't bother getting a 1440p unless you plan on upgrading your GPU soon (impossible)

Would avoid samsung anyway

1080 with a high refresh rate would be my go to

 

[rogue]

my advice would be to always go with a brand that is known for making excellent screens like LG. Same advice for headphones, keyboards, etc

*sweats* looks at second monitor which is AOC *sweats*

 

[blackdown]

I would suggest going with higher hertz rather than higher resolution, the difference is much more noticeable IMO

I have two of these:

LG 27GL63T Ultragear

Good monitors would recommend!

 

[Creepis]

oh I misread that but I guess I can use the 3 AM excuse

 

[Creepis]

if you use it as a 2nd monitor then it really doesnt matter

 

[LEWIS 088]

@Creepis I'll just pretend that it wasn't my main monitor for like 3 years then

 

[Creepis]

@LEWIS 088 if you never noticed a thing then that's good, the monitor I have has a good and popular 1080P version but the 1440P version is not even remotely the same

 

[Xeronise]

I've had 4k 60z, 1440p 144hz and 1080p 240hz and my favourite is the 1080p. Go for hertz over resolution if you can.

 

[rewevie]

I can vouch that this is factual, he even tried 300Hz!

so many monitors but 0 bitches lol

 

[Xeronise]

bought a laptop just for 300hz

@Xeronise don’t lie we all know you robbed that from tech light!
