If anyone is wondering, yes going from 1080p to 1440p makes a huge difference in image quality. 1440p is really clear and it cleans up the image. You can't ever go back to 1080p.
Thanks for clarifying this for me. I have a new laptop with an RTX 3050, 13th Gen I5, and 32gb of ram, but the display is only 1080p 144hz and I want to try out 1440p gaming.
I own 2x 1440p monitors, currently using a 4k monitor, and i am gaming in 1728x1080 lol.. Depends on the game you are playing, if you are soloing, yes go for high res, if you are playing competitive FPS, then go for higher res if you want to get rekt
you know monitors are used for watching content and work/editing not just gaming, for those 1440p oled prices i would rather stick with the new 4k ones who came recently (they both cost the same)
@@ahmedelbashir8789 Yeah but OLED isn't suitable for work/editing either. I'd only recommend them to people playing singleplayer and for media consumption.
I swear, I built a new pc with a 4080super and 1440p benq ex270qm monitor to game on the best settings for years to come. I do have an oled 65" 4k sony A9G for 4k 120hz gaming if I really wanted, but I hardly switch over.
I picked up a Dell G2724D (165Hz, 1440p) back in March and it has been fantastic for gaming. It retails for $300, but I snagged it for $200 and I'm blown away by how good it is. I think this is another monitor worth checking out in the midrange. Rtings has a great technical review of it as well for anyone curious.
If I was looking for a 1440p monitor under $300, I'd really have my eyes on the AOC miniled. That 1000 not peak HDR brightness combined with the local dimming zones just make it a different experience from other monitors in that price point. If you are in a region that has these monitors more expensive than yeah, that's unfortunate. So I personally don't see any reason to go for the Dell unless it's a fair amount cheaper and you can't afford the AOC or if your country has higher prices for tech like in Europe.
Because of you, I get all my parts for my computer tomorrow so I can build and I bought a monitor from this video. That CPU / GPU combo with the Ryzen 5 7600 build videos really helped me a lot.
I took him up on one of his suggestions about a 1080p monitor and holy shit night and day from the one I was using lol. I didn't even realize how much better it could look on 1080p and thought I was just gonna have to go up to 1440p. Definitely listen to this man.
Agree, got one in the UK for ~£200 about 2 months ago and its fantastic, also considered the LG Ultragear 27GR75Q at same pricepoint but Dell seemed to have better reviews.
That's not even the real, full model number. That's just the short code that has several models under it. The full model number for that one is XV272U V3bmiiprx.
This man has early 2000s commercial energy (which 100% a compliment coming from me) as someone who is very visual and sound attention focused, this held my attention and I learned a lot that I definitely did not know beforehand. Will definitely browse more videos. ^_^
Glad this was helpful! Most TVs are not meant to be monitors so they have way less hz capability etc. There are some great 4k TV options like the LG C2 or C3 line.
Aww video i was loking for. wonderfull video, i think i will buy the first monitor because the one you send me the link to (btw thank you for that very much) was so confusing what version it was (i mean the BGR ir RGB one) because the dont provide it and i dont wanna have a hasle with it, this one look good, i been using a 1080p 60hz anyway so i dont need the mid range ones (but its still cost 300 buck for me here R.I.P)
Hey, what do you mean with you will buy the first monitor? Which one did you buy? Also you mentioned BGR and RGB.. You mean the M27Q-X monitor from gigabyte right? It has 2 versions and I couldn't find the 2nd
Hey man great video! While I’d love to jump into OLED, I just can’t justify spending $700+ at the moment. With that, would you choose the AOC Q27G3XMN or the LG 27GR83Q-V? I mostly play single player games, but I do still play only fps games with friends, just not at a competitive level. Is one better than the other or is it more of a “240hz vs HDR/better colors”? Thanks!
Just snagged the 240hz LG for $299! Seemed to good to pass up, will wait to see what Black Friday deals and see if I can get a better quality 240hz IPS or maybe an OLED...might stretch the budget to $500.. you planning on another 1440P monitor video for Black Friday deals?
Yes that's a great deal! I'll be covering them in our Black Friday video and I'm posting the best deals I see on the youtube community page and twitter/threads @pcbuilderjason. But yes I posted that one its a great great deal
@@PCBuilderChannel I actually just cancelled the order before it shipped... Snatched up the AOC Agon Pro OLED for $400, cannot believe that price!! Great value and wanted OLED but not at $600+. I have had 2 AOCs for years so I will remain loyal.
I wish there were an option for increased quality at reduced frame rate. I, personally, can’t see a significant difference in anything above 120fps. I’d be happy to take a 120hz monitor at a lower price or with better quality.
Look no further than mini-LED options. KTC M27T20 for $340 or the budget AOC Q27G3XMN for just $279 but with only half the dimming zones making dark scenes have a lot of blooming.
@@anitaremenarova6662 I have a RTX 3060TI, so that 1440p Ultrawide would be too much for the poor 8GB GPU, even with DLSS. I gather that 32" 1440p is similar PPI as 24" 1080p.

Thank you for keeping the prices in the description updated! I was refering back to this video to decide what monitor and see that both of the ASRock monitors have dropped in price. Awesome. looks like a good time to buy. After that I'll start my build.
The oled is very bad. Very sudden writing items, high response time, and the worst is in the games, the shadows were too black and ne see things that with others yes.Mi asus vg278qr, it looks better, it is faster and bigger screen(oled no is 27p,is more small ,is 26.5p). I didn't want the OLED, it's a scam.My ASUS has an option called Vivpxel and blacks look better than the OLED, as I am glad to have this 27. And it costs only 250 euros monitor(ahh,0,01 ms real...the oled is 2 o more.I put the 2 monitors in parallel and I did evidence. The Oled was worse in everything I compared, and I am already an old dog in this
Great video as always! Struggling on which AOC to go with... overall value, do you think the Q27G3XMN is the way to go? Them both at the same price makes it very hard to pick...
Wow! Thank you for making a complete video that explains everything in detail but concise and at the same time adding the necessary gpus to cater for these displays.
Hp Omen 27QS Open box for $229 or the LG GR83Q for $346?? Which one is the best bang for my buck for best all around quality and performance for FPS 1440 p gaming and also wanting to play more story games . I need to know fast please!
They are just price too high to compete with my current recommendations. If they come down in price we'll add them to our links but at the moment just not worth the price jump from out picks.
The only 1440p monitors I'll buy are 21:9 units. I've never owned a 32:9, but my brief experience using one was not particularly good. I have a Dell 3400x1440 IPS monitor at 60Hz driven by a 6750XT or a 2070 Super for non-gaming tasks and an Alienware 120Hz driven by a 6800XT for no-RT gaming. I've had both for at least five years, and I'm still in no need of an upgrade.
Thanks for the Info......very informative......Any thoughts on the Samsung Odyssey G95C 49 Dual for video editing?......Its going for $799 on Amazon and is more in my budget.....and should i get an amazon warranty on this monitor? Thank you ahead of time.
Awesome video, i cant decide if i want a 27" or 32" monitor for my ps5 pro. The oled look so awesome but little pricey but im willing to spend about 800 for a monitor so which monitor would you choose if your budget was 800
Dang, I finally made the jump from TN to IPS with my newest monitor, and I come here and don't even hear about TN and hear "IPS is budget/mid-range". Oh man XD
Currently the MSI G274QPX is the same price as the HP OMEN 27QS. I was wondering why you would specifically recommend that one over the omen, as well as how you ordered the other 2 monitors above those (the LG and the gigabyte). Thank you for any info.
I'm still rocking my MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD gaming monitor from 2022. I paid $400 for it at the time but it's still going strong and satisfies all my 1440p gaming needs.
I found the asus 27 inch 1440p 170hz VG27AQA1A for $170 on amazon, would this monitor be good for a dual monitor setup? Also, should I get this over any of the recommended budget monitors in the video?
This video was literally uploaded at *THE* perfect time! I've been looking for a new (27"/1440p/240HZ/preferably curved but not necessary) monitor for quite a while now but I'm not sure if the two I found are the best in my budget range. (I'm a price to performance kinda guy) First pick would be the MSI G274QPX, second LG 27GR83Q. My max. budget is 400€. They're both just a bit under 400€. I mostly play (competitive) FPS shooters. I appreciate some opinions/recommendations for this monitor category👍(since the monitor is usually the longest lasting equipment in a PC setup, newbies like me don't want to make a "wrong" purchase😁)
Went with the Alienware 2725df and it's a fantastic monitor. Which preset would you reccomended is best for gaming? Creator HDR 1000 seems to be the one I see a lot of people use on these videos would you agree?
I upgraded from a 1080p 144hz monitor to the msi 34inch oled with a 4070ti super. First thing I did was play dead space remake, Resident evil 2 and 4 remake all on ultra settings. That monitor is the best gaming purchase of my life. Do I even want to know what 4k is like? 😬
IMO, at that price point you aren't spending that much more as a %. And you are a higher end buyer. So I figure why not spend a little bit more and get the best, which is QD-OLED in my opinion. But the $699 ASUS panel is quite amazing, and if that is as far as you can stretch you are still getting something amazing so go for it. That's why I listed both in the video. Hope that helps!
Great video as always. Please do a 4k Monitor one! I know the new Display Port is coming soon but would love to see your latest and greatest recommendations.
Got the AW2725DF when it came out a couple months ago. Jason was not lying in the slightest.. the thing blows my socks off every time I boot a game up still to this day since I bought it. Ghosts of Tsushima on PC is something really special to witness on this monitor, so is Helldivers 2
I got the Gigabyte M27Q V2 monitor for a couple of months now and I love it! Amazing colors, which is super important to me, and with working mostly from home I love the KVM feature
Love your content! Really appreciate this video! I hope I'm not a bother but just a quick question for you. I have a Legion 7i laptop with a 4070. Do you think the Alienware 360hz OLED would be wasted on me? Im not if I have enough power to push past 240 but that monitor does look fantastic. Lastly, if you were to get it, would you just order it now or do you think there's a decent chance for a thanksgiving/blackfriday deal? thankyou in advance. wishing you a great weekend
Thank you for the super thanks!! So the Laptop 4070 performs closer to a 4060 Ti desktop GPU, so unless you are playing very easy to run titles like CS2 / Valorant / Overwatch 2, you'll struggle to hit over 240hz even at competitive settings. So I wouldn't overspend, but the monitor will likely outlive your laptop so keep that in mind. In terms of when the best deals occur, it's hard to say. Likely the week of Black Friday but sometimes we see the best deals on the early black friday offers.
@@PCBuilderChannel ah appreciate the honest reply, thanks! and my pleasure! I had a feeling the 4070 in the laptop couldnt possibly have the same performance as the pc (desktop) 4070. But really appreciate you pointing out which gpu it does compare to. also great point about the monitor life. Its funny you say that, as I pretty much only play overwatch2 (maybe fortnite once in a while). My only followup question though, for clarity, would you no longer look at OLEDs? Do OLEDs just require more performance than what my laptop can offer? or were you mainly just referring to the ability to push 240+ frames. If I was really committed to getting an OLED, would you opt for one of the alternatives that are a tiny bit less pricey or at that point, if Im already spending big, would you say its worth it to spend the extra 100-200 to get the alienware given how great it is overall?
Hey ! I have a question . Im looking forward to buying a 1440p gaming pc but decided ill buy a 240hz monitor that I can use with my xbox and when I get the pc ill use it wiht that. What do you think about that? Is it a good decision?
I bought a Lenovo Legion R27q-30 about 2 months ago for 249 euro (That is including VAT). In combination with my ASRock Radeon 6750 XT it is a really good monitor. I am very happy with it.
What would be the better panel in your opinion. I'm stuck between the Dell G2724D and the LG GP850-B, I've heard good reviews and both and bad reviews about both and they are the same price in AUS.
What about the Alienware 1440p 240hz AW2723DF? Is it as good as these other 1440p 240hz ones or is the m27q-x and the LG one better? I don’t care about pricing as it’s all within 100$ of each other
I wish there were more smaller 1440p gaming monitors. 27 inches is a bit too large for my desk but I still would like to game at 1440p. A 23.8 inch QHD gaming monitor would be the best of both worlds for me.
The samsung Odyssey 8 are currently $550 for black friday do you recommend? I am currently using two 24 in 1080, wanting to upgrade to 1440p, but 2 27in seems too big but I also love multi tasking. This deal seems a hard to pass, should I give it a try?
My old 32" Samsung Odyssey G7-QHD 240Hz 1440P monitor is still rated @7.7 on Rtings for PC gaming , and it seems to work well enough with my old i9-10990k and my old EVGA RTX 2080 Ti XC Ultra so I'm not really in a hurry to upgrade but I'm addicted to these PC Builder videos anyway. Too bad the monitors recommended around that size are ultrawides. According to Rtings, the best gaming monitor is the $1200 32" 4K 240Hz Dell Alienware AW3225QF but I suppose anyone with deep pockets would also have the fastest CPU and GPU to go along with it.
I am currently using a Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 GPU on my Lenovo Legion 5 laptop and I wanted to buy a monitor and plug it into my laptop so I enhance my gaming experience and I really wanted to know your personal recommendation on a monitor you think would give me the best display possible. My budget is around $500. If you could also recommend the exact cables to use to connect that monitor to my laptop, I would greatly appreciate it, thank you! Subscribed :)
I am looking to buy new monitor, thinking between Dell AW2725DF/ Dell AW2721D or AW2723DF? My pc Specs are i5 14600kf and Nvidia 4070ti? What are u recommend as the best option to go? Thanks in advance 😊
So the first one is decent though expensive. The other two aren't worth it because of the price. If you want a QD-OLED I would look at the MSI MAG 271QPX QD-OLED E2 though if you want a 360hz Monitor that Dell looks good. If you just want a Regular 240hz Monitor the Gigabyte GS27Q X and MSI G274QPX are good options for less than that Dell.
Got the acer xv271u for $155 last month from a sale. Best value for a 1440p 180hz monitor! Would also like to mention Koorui monitors, if you haven't heard of them yet.
I have a medical condition causing me to play from a medical bed across the room, probably for the foreseeable future. I would like to get something like a 50-55" flatscreen type monitor with preferably 144hz+...do you have a recommendation for that kind of thing? I greatly appreciate anyone who answers this question. Next tax return I have the intention to build an updated PC, focusing on maximizing 1440p gaming. Was thinking 4080 super, 7800x3d, 32g of DDR5(6000hz), 2TB N.VMe...something like that. But I don't want to have that power and be bottle necked by a crappy output device.
there are no 50-55" gaming monitors. the biggest is 32" for non-ultrawide and 49" for ultrawide with the height of 27-32". only the side is bigger. for 50-55" size, you have to buy a TV.
I got the hp omen 27qs at 300 dollars due to your community post a few months ago, absolutely love it and i am so glad i went with your recommendation!

Thank you for keeping the prices in the description updated! I was refering back to this video to decide what monitor and see that both of the ASRock monitors have dropped in price. Awesome. looks like a good time to buy. After that I'll start my build.
Happy to help!
Lets go! New jason vid
:) Let's GOOOOO!
Best channel on youtube, straight to the point like always.
Btw, i like your T-shirt !
Got my Acer Nitro XV272U Z 2560x1440 IPS 270Hz for $227 last year.
It's basically a $500 Predator without G-sync.
The oled is very bad. Very sudden writing items, high response time, and the worst is in the games, the shadows were too black and ne see things that with others yes.Mi asus vg278qr, it looks better, it is faster and bigger screen(oled no is 27p,is more small ,is 26.5p). I didn't want the OLED, it's a scam.My ASUS has an option called Vivpxel and blacks look better than the OLED, as I am glad to have this 27. And it costs only 250 euros monitor(ahh,0,01 ms real...the oled is 2 o more.I put the 2 monitors in parallel and I did evidence. The Oled was worse in everything I compared, and I am already an old dog in this
Which asus monitor do you use?
LOL, „the shadows are too black“. Your problems will come down to not setting the display/picture up correctly. Using HDR?
I think you have just decided to go blasters all the way jason. Lovely
The AOC CQ27G2 seems to be out of stock everywhere. Any idea when or if it's coming back?
fr I'm searching for it too...
I was thinking of updating my setup and this video came just in time
Glad we can help!
whats the difference between flat ips and curved?
No mini led monitors? Do we still need to wait a little bit more?
I am sure he had shown us one
what do you think about the BENQ MOBIUZ EX2710Q, does it compete with this list or is superior?
It's good if priced well where you are but in the US it's not worth it.
What about midrange or budget ultrawides at 1440p? Main reason i was watching but it's not here
Any thoughts on the ASUS TUF VG27AQL3A 27" budget or midrange?
Great video as always! Struggling on which AOC to go with... overall value, do you think the Q27G3XMN is the way to go? Them both at the same price makes it very hard to pick...
Wow! Thank you for making a complete video that explains everything in detail but concise and at the same time adding the necessary gpus to cater for these displays.
So glad its helpful! Thanks for watching
Hp Omen 27QS Open box for $229 or the LG GR83Q for $346?? Which one is the best bang for my buck for best all around quality and performance for FPS 1440 p gaming and also wanting to play more story games . I need to know fast please!
Nice video.
Why the Samsung G7/G65b aren't in the recommendations anymore?
They are just price too high to compete with my current recommendations. If they come down in price we'll add them to our links but at the moment just not worth the price jump from out picks.
Great video the cat made it even better
Thank you! The cat is the true star here and everyone knows it ( ;
The only 1440p monitors I'll buy are 21:9 units. I've never owned a 32:9, but my brief experience using one was not particularly good. I have a Dell 3400x1440 IPS monitor at 60Hz driven by a 6750XT or a 2070 Super for non-gaming tasks and an Alienware 120Hz driven by a 6800XT for no-RT gaming. I've had both for at least five years, and I'm still in no need of an upgrade.
Should i buy the aoc q27g3xmn or the alienware aw2723df for the Same Price
Thanks for the Info......very informative......Any thoughts on the Samsung Odyssey G95C 49 Dual for video editing?......Its going for $799 on Amazon and is more in my budget.....and should i get an amazon warranty on this monitor? Thank you ahead of time.
Awesome video, i cant decide if i want a 27" or 32" monitor for my ps5 pro. The oled look so awesome but little pricey but im willing to spend about 800 for a monitor so which monitor would you choose if your budget was 800
Dang, I finally made the jump from TN to IPS with my newest monitor, and I come here and don't even hear about TN and hear "IPS is budget/mid-range". Oh man XD
There are great IPS options don’t stress!
Currently the MSI G274QPX is the same price as the HP OMEN 27QS. I was wondering why you would specifically recommend that one over the omen, as well as how you ordered the other 2 monitors above those (the LG and the gigabyte). Thank you for any info.
I love this guy's enthusiasm, "STOP BUYING BAD STUFF"!! haha love it.
So glad you are enjoying! Thanks for watching
Just got the Omen 27qs today for $299 at best buy, that's a steal thank you for the advice.
Great deal!
I'm still rocking my MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD gaming monitor from 2022. I paid $400 for it at the time but it's still going strong and satisfies all my 1440p gaming needs.
I found the asus 27 inch 1440p 170hz VG27AQA1A for $170 on amazon, would this monitor be good for a dual monitor setup? Also, should I get this over any of the recommended budget monitors in the video?
I would put the ASRock PG27QFT1B over it.
The ASUS is a VA and people prefer IPS for Monitors.
@@kelley09162 noted, I do like motion blur tho, and it is $70 less than the asrock one
@@Mifibythe ASRock is currently $168 on Amazon
This video was literally uploaded at *THE* perfect time!
I've been looking for a new (27"/1440p/240HZ/preferably curved but not necessary) monitor for quite a while now but I'm not sure if the two I found are the best in my budget range. (I'm a price to performance kinda guy)
First pick would be the MSI G274QPX, second LG 27GR83Q. My max. budget is 400€. They're both just a bit under 400€. I mostly play (competitive) FPS shooters.
I appreciate some opinions/recommendations for this monitor category👍(since the monitor is usually the longest lasting equipment in a PC setup, newbies like me don't want to make a "wrong" purchase😁)
I would say the MSI as I've seen good reviews on it.
I noticed the Koorui GN10 1440p 240Hz MiniLED is 290€ here. Also worth a look, though that one is more for AAA games and less for FPS games imo.
Which one did you end up getting?
Went with the Alienware 2725df and it's a fantastic monitor. Which preset would you reccomended is best for gaming? Creator HDR 1000 seems to be the one I see a lot of people use on these videos would you agree?
My top 3 budget monitors as of now:
-Dell G2724D
-Asrock PG27QFT2A
-Asus ROG Strix XG27ACS
What monitor do you recommend for someone with a RTX 3080TI?……. Best 4K option that I could also use with my PS5 as well please. Thanks in advance.
See our Best Gaming Monitor 2024 video! We have out 4k picks there.
Hello, what do you think of this Samsung Odyssey G5 G51C 32 ?
hey, an help with buying my new monitor, is this one SAMSUNG Odyssey G6 good compared with the ones you mention?
Usually not priced competitively but if you see it on super sale sure
I upgraded from a 1080p 144hz monitor to the msi 34inch oled with a 4070ti super. First thing I did was play dead space remake, Resident evil 2 and 4 remake all on ultra settings. That monitor is the best gaming purchase of my life. Do I even want to know what 4k is like? 😬
Hi Jason, why do you recommend 360hz OLED monitor over 240hz one so much? Is there any difference when playing titles at 120fps cap?
IMO, at that price point you aren't spending that much more as a %. And you are a higher end buyer. So I figure why not spend a little bit more and get the best, which is QD-OLED in my opinion. But the $699 ASUS panel is quite amazing, and if that is as far as you can stretch you are still getting something amazing so go for it. That's why I listed both in the video. Hope that helps!
@@PCBuilderChannel Thank you so much for answering! Really excited for my first 360hz oled :)
Great video as always. Please do a 4k Monitor one! I know the new Display Port is coming soon but would love to see your latest and greatest recommendations.
Thanks for the rec! And so glad you enjoyed the video :)
The most educational cat videos on the planet!
Yes! (;
Which monitor should I get to match with my msi GeForce 4070 ti super? Just built a new pc
If you want to play in 4k you're in the right place! Its going to depend on what games you play and what kind of experience you are looking for.
exactly the video i was looking for. keep up the good work.
so glad to help!
Got the AW2725DF when it came out a couple months ago. Jason was not lying in the slightest.. the thing blows my socks off every time I boot a game up still to this day since I bought it. Ghosts of Tsushima on PC is something really special to witness on this monitor, so is Helldivers 2
Great to hear! Thanks for sharing
How is the text clarity on it? I’m on the fence about picking up this monitor and I’ve heard it’s a it hard to read.
Does the AOC CQ27G3Z have HDMI 2.0 or 2.1?
What is your opinion about Acer Nitro XV272U F3 27 inch IPS WQHD. Looks like an absolute steal.
I got the Gigabyte M27Q V2 monitor for a couple of months now and I love it! Amazing colors, which is super important to me, and with working mostly from home I love the KVM feature
Any recommendations for a 240Hz 1440p monitor that’s a curved 32”? Preferably less than or equal to half a millisecond response time.
The only one I see on PC Part Picker is the Samsung Odyssey G65B and it's expensive at $485.
@@kelley09162 thanks for looking. I’ll check it out
Love your content! Really appreciate this video!
I hope I'm not a bother but just a quick question for you. I have a Legion 7i laptop with a 4070. Do you think the Alienware 360hz OLED would be wasted on me? Im not if I have enough power to push past 240 but that monitor does look fantastic.
Lastly, if you were to get it, would you just order it now or do you think there's a decent chance for a thanksgiving/blackfriday deal?
thankyou in advance. wishing you a great weekend
Thank you for the super thanks!! So the Laptop 4070 performs closer to a 4060 Ti desktop GPU, so unless you are playing very easy to run titles like CS2 / Valorant / Overwatch 2, you'll struggle to hit over 240hz even at competitive settings. So I wouldn't overspend, but the monitor will likely outlive your laptop so keep that in mind. In terms of when the best deals occur, it's hard to say. Likely the week of Black Friday but sometimes we see the best deals on the early black friday offers.
@@PCBuilderChannel ah appreciate the honest reply, thanks! and my pleasure!
I had a feeling the 4070 in the laptop couldnt possibly have the same performance as the pc (desktop) 4070. But really appreciate you pointing out which gpu it does compare to. also great point about the monitor life.
Its funny you say that, as I pretty much only play overwatch2 (maybe fortnite once in a while).
My only followup question though, for clarity, would you no longer look at OLEDs? Do OLEDs just require more performance than what my laptop can offer? or were you mainly just referring to the ability to push 240+ frames.
If I was really committed to getting an OLED, would you opt for one of the alternatives that are a tiny bit less pricey or at that point, if Im already spending big, would you say its worth it to spend the extra 100-200 to get the alienware given how great it is overall?
What monitor would you recommend for base ps5 I’m very new to monitors
Depends on what your budget is
Hey ! I have a question . Im looking forward to buying a 1440p gaming pc but decided ill buy a 240hz monitor that I can use with my xbox and when I get the pc ill use it wiht that. What do you think about that? Is it a good decision?
Yes, it is.
I bought a Lenovo Legion R27q-30 about 2 months ago for 249 euro (That is including VAT).
In combination with my ASRock Radeon 6750 XT it is a really good monitor.
I am very happy with it.
Is there a cheaper curved alternative to the asrock phantom PG27Q15R2A
Great video! What do you think of the Dell 27" QHD 165Hz 1ms IPS LED (G2724D)? I can get it on sale for $150 off where I live.
Good choice
dang i just bought a monitor yesterday, didnt know u made monitor videos! I got a LG 27GP850, for $220 hope thats still good today.
HEY JASON!, do you think a Tandem OLED screens will start to release soon? The brightness is actually amazing
That 49” Samsung super ultra wide looks AMAZING! Hopefully I can buy one for my birthday next year lol
Right?? I want one too lol
What would be the better panel in your opinion. I'm stuck between the Dell G2724D and the LG GP850-B, I've heard good reviews and both and bad reviews about both and they are the same price in AUS.
What about the Alienware 1440p 240hz AW2723DF? Is it as good as these other 1440p 240hz ones or is the m27q-x and the LG one better? I don’t care about pricing as it’s all within 100$ of each other
Not worth if it in the US as it's currently $500. The MSI G274QPX is a better choice at $350 or the Gigabyte GS27Q X at $280.
I wish there were more smaller 1440p gaming monitors. 27 inches is a bit too large for my desk but I still would like to game at 1440p. A 23.8 inch QHD gaming monitor would be the best of both worlds for me.
There is currently one option, the KOORUI GP01.
@@kelley09162 Incorrect, you can also get the AOC Q24G2A for like $199
The samsung Odyssey 8 are currently $550 for black friday do you recommend? I am currently using two 24 in 1080, wanting to upgrade to 1440p, but 2 27in seems too big but I also love multi tasking. This deal seems a hard to pass, should I give it a try?
That is a great deal!
@PCBuilderChannel ok just brought! Thanks!
My old 32" Samsung Odyssey G7-QHD 240Hz 1440P monitor is still rated @7.7 on Rtings for PC gaming , and it seems to work well enough with my old i9-10990k and my old EVGA RTX 2080 Ti XC Ultra so I'm not really in a hurry to upgrade but I'm addicted to these PC Builder videos anyway. Too bad the monitors recommended around that size are ultrawides. According to Rtings, the best gaming monitor is the $1200 32" 4K 240Hz Dell Alienware AW3225QF but I suppose anyone with deep pockets would also have the fastest CPU and GPU to go along with it.
I am currently using a Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 GPU on my Lenovo Legion 5 laptop and I wanted to buy a monitor and plug it into my laptop so I enhance my gaming experience and I really wanted to know your personal recommendation on a monitor you think would give me the best display possible. My budget is around $500. If you could also recommend the exact cables to use to connect that monitor to my laptop, I would greatly appreciate it, thank you! Subscribed :)
I am looking to buy new monitor, thinking between Dell AW2725DF/ Dell AW2721D or AW2723DF? My pc Specs are i5 14600kf and Nvidia 4070ti? What are u recommend as the best option to go?
Thanks in advance 😊
So the first one is decent though expensive. The other two aren't worth it because of the price.
If you want a QD-OLED I would look at the MSI MAG 271QPX QD-OLED E2 though if you want a 360hz Monitor that Dell looks good.
If you just want a Regular 240hz Monitor the Gigabyte GS27Q X and MSI G274QPX are good options for less than that Dell.
Thank you Jason. You’re the goat 3:16
(:
Got the acer xv271u for $155 last month from a sale. Best value for a 1440p 180hz monitor! Would also like to mention Koorui monitors, if you haven't heard of them yet.
LG 27GP850-B VS AOC CQ27G3Z Which one is better overall?
I have a medical condition causing me to play from a medical bed across the room, probably for the foreseeable future. I would like to get something like a 50-55" flatscreen type monitor with preferably 144hz+...do you have a recommendation for that kind of thing?
I greatly appreciate anyone who answers this question.
Next tax return I have the intention to build an updated PC, focusing on maximizing 1440p gaming. Was thinking 4080 super, 7800x3d, 32g of DDR5(6000hz), 2TB N.VMe...something like that. But I don't want to have that power and be bottle necked by a crappy output device.
there are no 50-55" gaming monitors. the biggest is 32" for non-ultrawide and 49" for ultrawide with the height of 27-32". only the side is bigger. for 50-55" size, you have to buy a TV.
What do you think of the alienware r15
I got the hp omen 27qs at 300 dollars due to your community post a few months ago, absolutely love it and i am so glad i went with your recommendation!
Awesome! Glad you are enjoying it! Happy to help!
Was that a powerful pc?
Asus tuf VG27AQML1A 375$ on amazon????? Is good??
Does hdmi 2.0 vs 2.1 matter?
This is how I do it. I got a WS OLED @ 165. So I adjust my GPU settings to get the best looking game with my 7900 XT that will show around 150 fps.
What do you think about the Samsung Odyssey G5?
Not the best price to performance compared to the other options these days
is arm lenght (85cm/33inch in my case)too far for 27inch 2k monitor? it will be on wall mount
