Brilliant straight forward and ticks all the boxes. After watching probably 20+ reviews this is the one that sold it mate. Thank you! Dead pleased. Subbed.
i am gonna buy one, thank u for this video
Good review. Thinking about to upgrade my 1080p 240hz
It'll be a good upgrade especially if you haven't experienced 1440p :)
Cool
Bought this today. I used my 144hz 1080p tn panel for over 9 years. Inever used an ips panel but i never hated it or had any problems. All i do is game and youtube web browsing etc. Fps is very important for me. I play old games like cs and halo mcc using a gtx 1080ti and a ryzen 5900x. I will upgrade my gpu once prices are acceptable. I bought this to play older games at a higher resolution and high fps. The IPS counterparts are like 250 bucks more expensive. People hate Tn panels but i was ok with it and dont have any complaints since i just sit in front of it and just play or watch UA-cam. I hope i made the right choice to go for this instead of a 165hz ips which where i live is only around 100 bucks cheaper. I went for max fps to futureproof and make the jump from my old monitor to this one more noticable. I am a huge fan of high fps in games. Lets wait and see..
It's a good monitor and I prefer TN, but if you need colours to be accurate then IPS is the better option
Mine arrives on Friday 😊
Enjoy :)
Mine too
Nice review! , i have a Benq Xl2411P and is very good for gaming , and the colors are very great... TN panels are the best for gaming.... i buy a 27 IPS and give me motion sickness.... return it and buy OLED 27 1440p , and the motion sickness feel very bad too , worst that ips panel .... for people have PWM sensivite the best is a TN panel... in my opinion this Hp is the best monitor for gaming... head to head Benq zowie 2546k =)
my advise... don´t buy a Oled monitor.... burn your eyes in 20m of gaming , you gona feel very dizzy , trust me
I've had mine for about 6 months now I love it. Was looking to see if you found some good settings for it
Nothing special tbh. I typically use one of the presets. I'm not too fussy, but normally find something I like to begin with and just leave it alone.
@@WayneWebbFilms ya i did the same its just ive read some people say if you have certain settings it can be alot better either way out of box amazing
How do i calibrate it?! Do i have to calibrate it ?!
Had the monitor for 3 years now and It’s great. However my only gripe with it is I can never get HDR to work on it. Even when I enable HDR in settings on windows the monitor still doesn’t activate HDR, and says on the monitor settings HDR is off and won’t let me turn it on. I even connected my Xbox Series X to it (which works perfectly with my LG CX) and the Xbox says the display does not support HDR, and can’t seem to do anything to get HDR working on the monitor.
Can anyone help with this or is it just a case of the HDR support for the Omen X27 is just very lacking?
I can’t get 120hz with this monitor on my ps5.I have the 2.1 hdmi cable and it won’t let me change the refresh rate on the monitor is there anything I can do to fix it?
How do you optimize the settings?
Mine arrives tomorrow, can't wait to click some heads in CSGO at 240 hz
Have fun ;)
How is it In cs go Kalzz
@@samashworth6359 It's very good, the response time is very fast and there's little to none motion blur when flicking hard.
The cool thing I've found about this monitor is that it's great for esports but it can also do everything else well... 1440p and very good colors for a TN panel.
Thanks Kalzz il def get it
What best setting for it mate it’s amazing I hit almost every awp shots but on my old 75hz monitor I was getting 200-300 FPS but this one I get 120-180fps why is that?
How would you mount the monitor?
fantastic review! I do have s Serious question tho, Im an owner of 3 monitors LG GL850 144Hz 27" 1ms 1440p IPS / ASUS ROG SWIFT PG278QR 165Hz 27" 1ms 1440p TN / Dell S2417DG 165Hz 24" 1ms 1440p TN. My Gpu is an Asus RTX 3080 TUF Gaming OC and Im playing Fast paced FPS games at a competitive level. Having said that my particular gpu performs way better at 1440p than 1080p. What I need is the absolute fastest responce time and lowest possible input lag. Dont care that much for colour accuracy as for a fast responce time and that clean sharp antighosting stellar TN motion. Having said that i realised my eyes are screen coating sensitive, what i mean i cannot stand at all that greyish tinted "whites" of a medium-heavy screen coated panel as my ASUS ROG SWIFT PG278QR has but instead i prefer that light screen coating of my Dell S2417DG where all whites are 100% whites with no gravel type of greyish tint all over it. My Question is> How would u describe the screen coating of the Omen x27 as i had an eye to insta - buy this model especially for that no input lag whatsoever, the TN panel and above all that Sweet 240Hz! P.S. i heard the coating is on the medium-heavy side rather the medium-light side.. thats seriously the Only thing that is holding me back.
Hi dude, firstly I probably could answer the question with any accuracy because it's subjective and not something I have a comparison to judge it against. Secondly I am not in possession of the monitor now. I decided a little after doing the video that I actually needed an IPS panel. The viewing angles and colour accuracy actually caused me issues in a few videos whilst using it and it wasn't until later on that I realised how much I really needed an IPS. Always learning and all that :)
For gaming it is fantastic and you seem to have a vast selection of monitors at the moment that I'm not totally sure this will see a vast improvementover any of them, but as I said before it's subjective. I've owned the Dell 24" version and the ROG monitor (IPS version as well) and enjoyed using them all. Good luck in getting your answer and I'm sure you'll be happy of you do end up with it. Maybe get it from Amazon and send it back if you're not 100% happy.
@@WayneWebbFilms ok sounds like that Amazon it is then, thanx for the fast and honest reply and good luck with the channel !
@@kostistsiutras4373 Let me know was it good. I need the lowest response time and lowest input lag with at LEAST 165hz or Above 1440p monitor. I'm playing comp only and I absokutely hate my monitor. It's Asus Rog swift 1440p 165hz 4ms IPS 27inch G sync monitor. The picture quality is really good but is is so bad for comp gaming. Lots of ghosting and the response time is super slow. I can see a HUGE difference between my old 1080p 144hz TN panel monitor.
in the image settings it says image scaling
what is pixel for pixel scaling???
So I'm thinking about buying a 1080p monitor with 240 hz for very good frames in Warzone or buying this one but where I would loose some frames. What do you think I should do? I have a 3070 with AMD Ryzen 9 3900x
From what I gather, the War zone engine allows a maximum of 144fps (hz). I really like 1440p and also have a 1080p 144hz monitor, but I do feel that there is little difference above 144hz and lots of other factors from server or Internet quality shape your gaming experience. I would say go 1440p, the 3070 is a beast of a card, but save a bit of money and go for a 144/165hz monitor. That said the 165hz ips version of this monitor or the new 27i are excellent choices. Both have gsync which is great considering you have a 3070. Anyway, I hope this helps.
@@WayneWebbFilms Thank you so much for your help. I'm going to get one with 1080p and 240 hz first and if I want to upgrade at any time I'm just going to buy the same monitor with 1440p
Cool. The new Alienware 240hz/1080p monitors are good. Also, the PG258Q is a good choice...link to a review i did ua-cam.com/video/f0ZrMn-li3I/v-deo.html
@@WayneWebbFilms hello do you have change of monitor since that vidéo ? I don't know if this omen IS better for occular confort than a Asus or a Samsung odyssey Can you give an me your opinion ?!
Hi do you still have the Omen X27? I intend to buy an Omen X27 1440p 240hz. I have a Ryzen 7, RTX2060 notebook and would like to know if can benefit of the 1440p 240hz monitor with my notebook to play games such as Valorant Fortnite and csgo.
Hi, I don't have it still, but a serious question, is your notebook capable of pushing 1440p 240hz? The 2060 is a good card and I know that csgo isn't that taxing, but my current system 5600x with a 6600xt at 1080p high is struggling to keep over 100fps with Fortnite. You'll probably play low settings but it's not a great experience
@@WayneWebbFilms Do you still recommend this monitor in 2022 to play games like Fortnite?
Yeah a great monitor. Loads more options about now so you have more choice. Suppose it depends on budget, whether you need 240hz and if you want TN or IPS
damn yeah.
best for gaming. playing in overdrive 4 with a minimum of 0.72ms on the pixel
and freesync 2 IS g-sync too
The only thing I'm scared about is the lack of dark equaliser. I see in battlefield footage you've shown that certain areas are pretty dark, if an enemy was in there, I wouldn't be able to see them.
Have you used only dark settings and low brightness or?
Does it get better after some tinkering?
Do you have visibility issues at all when playing, especially in BFV which already has vis.issues?
Would you recomment this monitor over Lenovo Legion Y27gq-25? Price doesn't matter to me.
Its either x 27, aforementioned lenovo, or back to 1080p with omen x 25 or zowie XL2546K.. The only use of the monitor would be gaming at a higher level. System is top of the line i9 12900k + rtx 3090
I really can't pick my poison here lol.
Can you show us your settings ?
Its just the default ones, I've not tinkered
I'm gonna buy one, is the vesa bracket also in the box?
Comes with a 100x100 bracket, but I didn't use it myself
@@WayneWebbFilms Great, thank you so much! I heard some people say it was not in the box and I need to mount it on a arm. Btw, it's said in the review the monitor is flickerfree, but it's not. It's based on pwm. Mostly invisible for the human eye. Anyway, I bought the monitor, it comes tomorrow. Thank you for the excellent review!
It's tucked away in one of the corners so you'll have to hunt for it. No idea how it connects though ;)
@@WayneWebbFilms I looked up how to connect, it will be allright. I have one more question tho, I read the monitor is 400 nits , is it very bright in the dark or can I change the brightness as low as needed in the dark? I play in dark or with led light like in the beginning of your video. In the video it looks excellent by the way! Tonight it will be delivered, really can't wait :)
I cannot remember tbh but you'll find out soon enough ;)
Let me know how it goes
How is this monitor for playing movies etc. Other than gaming?
I only used it for UA-cam and had no complaints. Unfortunately I don't have this particular monitor anymore due to requiring an IPS in the end, which was a huge pain tbh. So I am unable to give you the best first hand advice. Try asking on one of the comments, maybe someone else can shed some light for you.
@@WayneWebbFilms require? why?
Can I put 2K and 240Hz together?
The monitor is 2k and 240hz ;)
If you mean a separate monitor then that shouldn't be a problem
i want this but dk if it’s worth the £400😭😭
I think it is, there are lots of other monitors out there. See if you can get it 2nd hand
rn its 360 euro, seems worth it... and u cant find any other 2k 240hz monitors anywhere around that price
Hi there.Could anyone tell me if this is good idea getting this monitor for PS5 only?Will I get any benefit of getting more than 60hz in this monitor?Im mainly interested in new 40fps implemented modes like in Spider-Man,Ratchet, Horizon
Isnt the samsung g7 better?
You may be correct, but I have never used the G7. Maybe owners of both may be able to give their opinion...
Nah it’s not as responsive nor is the image ass smooth because this one uses TN. The g7 has some ghosting
@@jr6905 G7 has much better image quality tho. Better coating, better contrast and better viewing angles.
the hp is 350 euro and the samsung 500 euro
