Thank you for your videos. You actually go in depth about why a certain monitor would be best for a certain system, instead of just throwing out a list of what are the “supposed” best monitors out there.
At 4:18 where you talk about G-Sync compatible. Yes AMD cards are compatible. For reference, "G-Sync compatible" IS Freesync. As is VESA VRR. There might be some mild differences/customizations between Freesync Premium and VRR, but for the most part they're all the same. I do not however know what makes VESA VRR in the HDMI 2.1 spec different from Freesync Premium to the point where the PS5 won't enable it. It "should" just work the same. Especially since it was AMD who first introduced Freesync to the VESA standard in the first place. G-Sync used to require a module for any usage (unless you were on a laptop in which case Nvidia just used Freesync and called it G-Sync anyway). But due to Nvidia's G-Sync module costing about $200, where FreeSync was "free", Nvidia wasn't gaining enough adoption due to the cost that added to monitors. And because of the laptop situation, everyone knew Nvidia cards were more than capable of using Freesync anyway, but Nvidia was just arbitrarily blocking it because they wanted to force Nvidia GFX card owners to buy G-Sync specific monitors that had the $200 G-Sync module. Eventually, there was a combination of enough consumer and industry pushback and lack of adoption that Nvidia finally unlocked their cards to use Freesync, calling it "G-Sync Compatible". So if you see a monitor that claims "G-Sync Compatible". That' means it's a Freesync monitor. Not a G-Sync monitor. A lot of companies just call it "G-Sync Compatible" for marketing purposes despite the confusion it causes. At absolute most, "G-Sync Compatible" simply means a Freesync monitor that has been tested by Nvidia to work with Nvidia graphics cards without issue. Nothing more. There are some first gen Freesync monitors that won't be considered "G-Sync Compatible", but basically any monitor using "Freesync 2"(later rebranded to "Freesync Premium") or better are all basically automatically called "G-Sync Compatible". Mainly because 1st gen Freesync didn't support LFC (Low Framerate Compensation). Which was added for the Freesync 2 standard. The G-Sync module does still exist though. But it's only in monitors that are marketed under the "G-Sync Ultimate" branding. And as you might guess, it still adds about $200 to the cost of the monitor. It's so identifiable, it has been seen many times where you'll see two monitors release, where the only two differences between them are the G-Sync module and the price. One recent notable example is the Dell AW3423DW and AW3423DWF. Monitors are mostly the same hardware wise. The big difference. The DW has G-Sync Ultimate (using the module) and the DWF uses Freesync Premium Pro. And as can also be guessed. The DW was $200 more expensive than the DWF is now. One surprising change. The DWF also has user upgradable firmware and the DW does not. Turns out, as confirmed by Dell, the reason the DW doesn't have user upgradable firmware is because the Nvidia G-Sync module makes that impossible, because it requires a special tool. Dell now no longer sells the DW. You can pretty much see why. In short, if a monitor says "G-Sync Compatible", that means it's Freesync (Freesync Premium or better), not G-Sync. So yes, AMD cards will work just fine.
I'm looking at them in Amazon for like $150.oo an less ! Getting QHD at that price as well at 185 Hertz 1080p 27 an 24 at 1 ms an up. Curved. You going to make sure that there's a difference because you want it faster if you're playing multiplayer at least 120 or higher Hertz.. For one player you can play it at 4K 60 hz.
Yeah but if the monitor has a regular hdmi 2.0 port instead of the 2.1 then none of those features will matter because, like Mr. Audit said, 2.0 is limited to 18gbps as 2.1 is to 48gbps and I'm 99.9% sure that those $150 monitors that you see on Amazon doesn't have a hdmi 2.1 port. I've been looking and doing my research. The only budget friendly monitor that I could find costs $219USD (viotek gnv34dbe4, it's different from the regular gnv34dbe) it has 2 hdmi 2.1 ports, supports up to 144Hz but as we know ps5=120Hz, uwqhd 21:9 aspect ratio/ 3440x1440, HDR, 140% sRGB 4000:1 contrast ratio. For any console gamers reading this, this monitor is probably the only decent hdmi 2.1 monitor that you can get for such a great price with all the features that it has. Plus it's a 34" curve with a VA panel. Trust me, you won't find anything better or as good for such a price. Deuces ✌️
@@unrulydamar3902I’m thinking of buying this cause I’ve been looking for a 34” monitor with these exact specs and didn’t come across it till reading this comment, thank you so much will let you know if I end up going for it and how it went.
@marcusanglin4216 So there's just one thing that I noticed after receiving the monitor. On the Xbox, it's literally a plug and play. You'll get the option to do 4k at 120hz for some games like warzone even tho it's a 1440p monitor (basically, you can do 1440p120hz or 4k @120hz, whichever one you prefer) For the ps5, I had to buy an hdmi to displayport adapter cable for the 120hz option to work (4k120hz hdmi to displayport cable - $20 )..... it has 3 ends instead of 2 (Hdmi goes into ps5 - USB goes into outlet or the back of the ps5 - displayport goes into monitor) So far, I have no complaints
If you're asking why HDMI 2.0 and not HDMI 2.1 which the Xbox Series X and S support, it is because there is no HDMI 2.1 to DisplayPort active adapter currently available on the market. Guys we can’t get 120fps on old gen because basically the 2.0 cap at 60hz
AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync Compatible are the same thing. AMD FreeSync and Nvidia G-Sync Compatible are similar, in fact, they're often cross compatible. Free sync works on Nvidia cards, and some monitors are validated as both NVIDIA G-SYNC compatible and AMD FreeSync Premium certified. This means they can be used with either an NVIDIA or AMD graphics card
I’m looking for a large 16:9 ratio curved 1440p 120hz minimum monitor for a sim racing rig. I want it to be around 40”. It will be used with ps5. what are a few models you would recommend? The Acer Nitro XZ396QU Pwmiipphx 38.5" 3000R Curved VA WQHD 2560×1440 Gaming Monitor is the only one I can find. Would a TV be a better option for what I’m looking for?
Hey bro, do you think this is the way to go? Given where we are in the life cycle of these consoles? I can’t choose whether to go xbx s and a 1440p monitor or xbx x with 4K. ( hesitant because next gen consoles debut 2028- so in 4 years. ) .
@@MDCrosswell No just buy a 4k UHD TV buddy. They're not even expensive compared to a monitor! Easier to pickup 2nd hand, But you won't get one say smaller than 40 inch but they're cheaper to buy when compared. Granted if you want to do competitive gaming''' 24 inch Monitor. Otherwise monitors are overpriced because they're less popular among people buying. That is why TV's are way cheaper..
I was on ps4 pro Xbox one X then series X, I'm not gonna lie it's pretty difficult to find a good monitor for your 4K consoles. By far my best option stays my 27" LG UK600 it has the best picture and colours fidelity ( looking normal) that i could find since 2018 but you gonna stay in 4K 60FPS and freesync ( which is all i need) IPS panel. For comfort on a larger panel with HDMI 2.1 (ALLM,VRR, 120 FPS) i bought a gigabyte M32U which is not bad at all but strangely doesnt meet my expectations in terms of colours accuracy brighntess black etc... Best options by far is a TV ! From the lowest price but best quality i had a Samsung Q60R (43" has no VRR, i suggest a 49"). Be wary that some models are almost impossible to find ( not produced anymore) and new tv's are time to time really wrong for what they pretend to be and their prices ( very bad experience with a Samsung QN90C worst crap ever) So im not sure for 120FPS ( anyway there are very few on consoles) but i think by far at the end the best tv's are LG''s OLED 42" C2 or C3 for your series X or PS5
Hello, i checked like 4 of your videos regarding what to actually buy for a PS5. I have a OLED TV and i want to switch the PS5 to a monitor and I'm not sure what to actually buy. I don't know if i can find a 32 inch display with HDMI 2.0 that will allow me to play at 1440 p 120 hz. is this even possible on the ps5? or do i strictly need a hdmi 2.1 compatible montior? Is it worth going for 32' instead of lets say 27? If you can answer it would be great and also some recommendations are much appreciated. Thanks!
I’m pretty sure you do need HDMI 2.1 I am looking into buying the Samsung G7 28 inch it’s on sale right now for 500 It’s usually 799 and it would work with everything you need.
Hey, I quite honestly don’t know shit about monitors. I’m in the process of buying my first monitor, after watching your videos I’m thinking about getting the AUS TUF Gaming 27”.. I have a question what is a G-Sync? Do I need to get a card for the monitor?
I’m thinking of getting the 32in curved sansui gaming monitor that has the HDMI 2.1 is that a good choice for a gaming monitor that can use most of the PS5 feature?
I thinking the gp850-b but it's getting old now there must be something g better for ps5. I was looking at getting a 4k 144hz monitor but with the news that some future games on console will be capped at 60fps I don't see the point in getting one now
Does the LG monitor you talk about @ 4:39 come with HDMI 2.1? My son is getting a monitor for his PS5/Xbox series X and I think you need a monitor with HDMI 2.1. Thank you & God bless
i have the same question. Like if i get a monitor that has fresync but doesnt support 2.1 is there gonna be more screen tearing etc bc we dont get that VRR?

In 1440p resolution the 2.0 HDMI can achieve 120hz but the fps you get depend from how many fps the game gives. But in 4K resolution you need 2.1 HDMI for 120hz
@@Robbo117 there is a bunch of games that are supporting 4k with framerate higher than 60. You can find this list in internet. If you’re interested to play those games and you‘re ok with giving away some extra money for that, so why not? But there are really a little amount of games, which are supporting this
You will see 1440p 120 fps, but only if you have a monitor and cable that supports atleast hdmi 2.0. Ngl hdmi 2.0 is really common so there's a big chance you're good to go😅
Do you think that the AOC CU34G2X/BK is a good choice? Bc I think that the price is a bit too good to be true for such a good an especially big monitor
You can use the monitor with a console basically you want a high resolution rate and a hdmi 2.0 like say you play cod on a ps5 the ps5 is already 120fps but if ur monitor doesn’t have hdmi 2.0 it can only play up to around 60 fps so you wanna make sure you get the right one
If the monitor does not have a display port of 1.4, is there any benefit in having a refresh rate of more than 144 hz? For example some monitors are 165 to 180 hz and also feature hdr10 which is unable to run 1.2 displayport. So where is the benefit?
You just need an hdmi cable. You also need that for litterly every single tv that you're gonna connect with your ps5 and xbox series x so an hdmi cable is not some monitor exclusive thing lol😂
Am i heard right? Freesync is useless without hdmi 2.1 port for my PS5? So i'll buy a good cheap QHD from Asus (VG27AQ). for gaming and productivity use.
I am looking for one as well, I have chosen the AOC CU34G2X/BK and I have watched some videos on it so I think, that it will work fine (can’t say 100% thou)
I have a ps5, Xbox series s, and a laptop with an rtx 3060 anyone have recommendations for a monitor for all of them? Preferably one with g sync and I don’t care abt hdmi 2.1
Does monitor latency ADD to server latency (in-game ping) or is it absorbed by higher latency in game? Like if I’m connected to a game at 13 ms ping, does mo it ir latency add to that?
Yes 100hz will work with any hdmi connection whether it is hdmi 1.4, 2.0 or 2.1. Hdmi 1.4 does 1080p 144hz and both hdmi 2.0 and 2.1 do 1080p 240hz max
I have 300 dollars and a Xbox series x. I usually play fortnite madden mlb the show and warzone and siege. What is the best monitor i can get. Not really looking for 4k and I want a 27 inch pls comment great monitors I would love and appreciate all the help. And can someone explain to me what most of this stuff means like I don’t even know what refresh time is
I’ve recently got myself a aoc cu34g2x/bk monitor for ps5 gaming. Although i did everything possible (correct hdmi cable, settings etc.) i’m only getting 60fps on r6 siege or fortnite. Can somebody help me what the problem may be?
When it comes to Xbox, the only reason you would want an HDMI 2.1 monitor is if you are wanting to play games at a 4K resolution AND get more than 60fps at the same time. If you are someone who is fine with a 1440p picture at 120fps, then honestly any monitor that has AMD FreeSync will be great for you!
Hello guys, I've got Sades M60 which is 165HZ and HDMI 2.1 and I'm using the PS5 cable which is also 2.1; however it's still saying your tv doesn't support vrr!!
I've not heard of that model before but when doing some searching I seem to be seeing conflicting info as to whether the HDMI port is 2.1 or 2. Is it possible the monitor does not actually have a 2.1 port?
@@TechAuditTV I’ve done some searching as well and it seems that there is no law preventing companies from using 2.1 marketing for a 2.0 monitors; kinda like the usb naming ,confusing and a lot of specifications. If this is not a fraud I don’t know what is! I bought this monitor specifically for the 2.1 hdmi.
wait but if we have a 1440p monitor that only supports 2.0. wont it only run 1440p at 60hz on PS5 bc its not getting that VRR support that only comes when you use a monitor that supports hdmi 2.1? Or does freesync or gsync allow it not to screen tear and does the same thing as VRR@@hasssooo5469

Hey, what’s up people I figured I would come here for help. I got this new monitor that should be perfect for me although it’s a 144hz monitor I can only run it at 60hz on my ps5. I don’t know if it has something to do with the display port cable only working on pc. I’ve tried a lot of different things and none seems to work. I would love to game at 1440p 120hz but it’s looking like I’m going to go for 1080p 120hz if I can’t figure out why this is happening since I don’t want to get another monitor in hopes of running 1440p 120hz but only to have the same problem

ive seen people run 1440p at 120hz on a ps5 through the 2.0 hdmi on a monitor
Only play warzone and pubg. Im on a 1080 monitor at the moment. Looking to go to 1440p. What would be the best purchase for €350 budget?
Gigabyte M28u
@ thanks buddy, just got one reduced from €589 to €359 👊
@@Zer0JusTice-qh8bc Glad I could help. Unfortunettly I'll have to settle with M27Q, might stretch the budget to 275€ for the M27Q X, but can't quite get to 359€.
Hope it will serve you well!
27" AOC Q27G2U/BK Gaming is this Good for ps5 to play on ??
Can you do this with just the monitor or do you need the whole pc setup ( tower and stuff)
Hi!
Which HDMI-version do I need to get 1440p at 120Hz on Ps5. Getting different info on this. 2.0 or 2.1?
2.1😊
In 1440p resolution the 2.0 HDMI can achieve 120hz but the fps you get depend from how many fps the game gives.
But in 4K resolution you need 2.1 HDMI for 120hz
2.0b and 2.1
can superframe vision pro be used on PS5? im between it and benq zowie xl2411k
Do you need hdmi 2.1 on ps5 or just hdmi
HDMI 2.1 port in monitor won‘t give anything, because both xbox and playstation can’t perform 4k in more than 60fps…
Llm and vrr
So your saying there is no point in looking for a 2.1 for pa5
He might have a point
@@Robbo117 there is a bunch of games that are supporting 4k with framerate higher than 60. You can find this list in internet. If you’re interested to play those games and you‘re ok with giving away some extra money for that, so why not? But there are really a little amount of games, which are supporting this
I just need my 120fps and i am fine with that 😁
BRO!..Answers ppls questions down below ffs!!! ✌️💜
Will I see the frames if I’m using a 1440p 165hz monitor on ps5?
You will see 1440p 120 fps, but only if you have a monitor and cable that supports atleast hdmi 2.0. Ngl hdmi 2.0 is really common so there's a big chance you're good to go😅
What are your thoughts on the AOC Monitor LOL Edition AG275QXL to use for PS5?
Do you think that the AOC CU34G2X/BK is a good choice? Bc I think that the price is a bit too good to be true for such a good an especially big monitor
then what's up with the videos that say ps5 now supports 1440p 120hz? would it not work on ultrawide without black bars
can i play 1080p 120hz with a gaming monitor with my ps5 ?
Can someone answer this guy pls
You'll need a monitor with HDMI 2.1
Yes you can.
@@Abdlmnn1 most likely, new monitors always have one ever since hdmi was introduced
@@Abdlmnn1pretty sure 2.0 works as well you can do 120hz at 1440p with 2.0
Can I play my PS5 at 1440p 120 hz on a HDMI 2.0 input display?
Or does it get capped at 1080p?
what is the best monitor for xbox series x for under $200
Do I hafto buy a pc or can I just use the monite.
You can use the monitor with a console basically you want a high resolution rate and a hdmi 2.0 like say you play cod on a ps5 the ps5 is already 120fps but if ur monitor doesn’t have hdmi 2.0 it can only play up to around 60 fps so you wanna make sure you get the right one
If the monitor does not have a display port of 1.4, is there any benefit in having a refresh rate of more than 144 hz?
For example some monitors are 165 to 180 hz and also feature hdr10 which is unable to run 1.2 displayport.
So where is the benefit?
Looking for a monitor I have about £150 what would you recommend I have a Xbox series x
I found a monitor that is for the series s that can run 165hz 1440p for $99
What one?
Its my first time getting a monitor and it dose not have a HDMI 2.1 and its 1080p , 180hz will it be limited to 60hz ?
which monitor should i buy gigabytem28U or samsung odeesy G7 144hz.Pls suggest
G7 is by far the greatest looking monitor ever
Do you need a HDMI switch to plug a ps5 and Xbox X into a monitor.
You just need an hdmi cable. You also need that for litterly every single tv that you're gonna connect with your ps5 and xbox series x so an hdmi cable is not some monitor exclusive thing lol😂
Am i heard right? Freesync is useless without hdmi 2.1 port for my PS5? So i'll buy a good cheap QHD from Asus (VG27AQ). for gaming and productivity use.
It says you need to go back to your regular tv
Is fine to have a 170hz monitor for my console(xbox series s)?
Yea it is, as long as you didn't overspend to specifically get 170hz, cause your xbox series s can do 120hz maximum and not higher😅
Also a good monitor is the dell 3223q 🎉
i have a ps5 so do i need a monitor with hdmi2.0 or a monitor with hdmi 2.1 if i want 120fps
Can I still use max fps for ps5 if it doesn’t have and HDMI 2.1
Tnx bro
Does a 34inch ultrawide curved gaming monitor will work fine on the ps5?
I am looking for one as well, I have chosen the AOC CU34G2X/BK and I have watched some videos on it so I think, that it will work fine (can’t say 100% thou)
If I have a amd freesync 120 hertz and Xbox series s will I get 120 fps
I have a ps5, Xbox series s, and a laptop with an rtx 3060 anyone have recommendations for a monitor for all of them? Preferably one with g sync and I don’t care abt hdmi 2.1

Does monitor latency ADD to server latency (in-game ping) or is it absorbed by higher latency in game? Like if I’m connected to a game at 13 ms ping, does mo it ir latency add to that?
Monitor latency and ping are 2 separate things so no.
If i use hdmi 2.1 but the port on the monitor is 1.4 will it limit me to 60Hz even if the monitor is 100Hz
You need 16:9 ratio for the consoles.
So what about the Xbox series X issue to achieve 120fps to 1440p resolution monitor they fixed or must make alchemy's again?
I wanna by 1440 monitor but cuz of this reason im confused
2.1 have to!!!!
Can you recommend me a monitor for a ps5 pls under $300

Looking for the best ultra curve 2.1 monitor looking for 32or34
I need to know. I have a 100 hz monitor. Can I play at least 100hz on hdmi?
Yes 100hz will work with any hdmi connection whether it is hdmi 1.4, 2.0 or 2.1. Hdmi 1.4 does 1080p 144hz and both hdmi 2.0 and 2.1 do 1080p 240hz max

hey i have an asus gaming monitor VG279QM 27" and i was wondering if it supports hdmi 2.1 so i can play PS5 games with 1440p 120 hz
You should be able to check the ports on your monitor or just look it up
I’ve recently got myself a aoc cu34g2x/bk monitor for ps5 gaming. Although i did everything possible (correct hdmi cable, settings etc.) i’m only getting 60fps on r6 siege or fortnite. Can somebody help me what the problem may be?
can you game 120fps on ps5 using a 1080p 165hz monitor with hdmi 2.0?
Yes, ps5 supports 120hz gameplay using hdmi 1.4 up, but only at 1080p
I’m coming off a tv and I’m tired of the delay I have a Xbox x and I want to know what would be the best Monitor and my budget is 250-300
Should I get the ASUS TUF Gaming 27" but I thought it need to be hdmi 2.1
When it comes to Xbox, the only reason you would want an HDMI 2.1 monitor is if you are wanting to play games at a 4K resolution AND get more than 60fps at the same time. If you are someone who is fine with a 1440p picture at 120fps, then honestly any monitor that has AMD FreeSync will be great for you!
Any higher end Samsung and Sony tv gives great times. I'm 11ms on a Sony x900h
Hello guys, I've got Sades M60 which is 165HZ and HDMI 2.1 and I'm using the PS5 cable which is also 2.1; however it's still saying your tv doesn't support vrr!!
I've not heard of that model before but when doing some searching I seem to be seeing conflicting info as to whether the HDMI port is 2.1 or 2. Is it possible the monitor does not actually have a 2.1 port?
@@TechAuditTV I’ve done some searching as well and it seems that there is no law preventing companies from using 2.1 marketing for a 2.0 monitors; kinda like the usb naming ,confusing and a lot of specifications. If this is not a fraud I don’t know what is! I bought this monitor specifically for the 2.1 hdmi.
@@Elbsmyit’s lying to the customer
@@SuixdeCity I returned the monitor and got Samsung g7 instead. More than double the price but at least it is a real 2.1 monitor plus 4k.
So playing on my 82” is dumb and I could be way better with a tiny tv!?
It's a TV, not supposed to play on a TV, watch movies only. A monitor is way better

Can anyone recommend a 1440p 144hz with hdmi 2.1 vrr supportive monitor?
There is no 1440p monitor with hdmi 2.1 because you only need 2.1 for 4k 120hz. Get the lg27gp850 on sale. Its the best 1440p budget monitor👍🏽

I'm looking at the ASUS TUF Gaming monitors. I want a 1440p 120hz IPS monitor for around £300 that will be good enough for the PS5, but compatible with the PS4 for now. I have the standard PS4 currently but upgrading to the PS5 in the next 6 months. I need help please! 😂
I believe if it has hdmi 2.1 input then you’ll get the most out of your ps5 which as he stated the cheapest one is $500
Hey, what’s up people I figured I would come here for help. I got this new monitor that should be perfect for me although it’s a 144hz monitor I can only run it at 60hz on my ps5. I don’t know if it has something to do with the display port cable only working on pc. I’ve tried a lot of different things and none seems to work. I would love to game at 1440p 120hz but it’s looking like I’m going to go for 1080p 120hz if I can’t figure out why this is happening since I don’t want to get another monitor in hopes of running 1440p 120hz but only to have the same problem

Smaller than the usually

Does a pc monitor work for a ps5
Yes just don’t go ultra wide

Did you get it ? @Broken Vlogger
I'm getting it in a few months bro
so basically. if the monitor is 1440p but doesnt support hdmi 2.1 then you’re better off grabbing a monitor thats 1080p that supports hdmi2.0
PS5 now supports 1440p with the latest update, so things have changed.
