Twinblade★ 3,930 Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 It took me a while to decide on a monitor and I payed more than I would have liked as there are many different things you want to take into consideration. Do you want a 2k, 4K, or Ultra wide with a 21:9 based resolution (like 3440 x 1440)? Do you want a LCD, LED, or OLED panel? Do you want HDR, if so what rating? What refresh rate do you want? What response time? Most monitors rarely offer everything unless you're willing to fork out a significant amount of money. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

All the monitors i see are 144+. I guess i can use adaptive sync to halve it to 72? Idk man idk about monitors. I have a cheap samsung monitor now and i think its nice.

At the very least, you'll want to get one that supports G-Sync since you have a Nvidia card. The ASUS one you posted only supports FreeSync (which is AMD tech) so it works best with AMD builds. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

__MACK__ 22 Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Maybe you should goto a store and try your options. I bought my current monitor from the internet some years ago and now regret not trying ultrawide side by side with it for example. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Id spend more money on a display if i cared about it but i really dont care too much. I just want 60fps on games that arent 60fps on xbox. And i will enjoy my 2nd play of godlurs gate hopefully without the drops to 15fps Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But both refresh rates are overkill tbh, you will likely not be able to go that high in most games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Substatic 421 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 (edited) I said FUCK IT, and just went with a 42" C2 Need a huge desk and would not recommend unless you really know what you're doing. It's pretty fucking godly tho. Edited August 24, 2023 by Substatic 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Impossible 410 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I have a 27" ProArt monitor. I can't imagine going any bigger. I had one 24" inch one for like 8 years before this one and think that's the best way to go. It's fully adjustable which makes it tolerable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I could not imagine running a PC on a 60hz monitor. It's pretty much impossible now to buy anything new that isn't at least 120hz+... You should try to have as fast of a refresh rate as possible because it will simply improve every aspect of the PC. From input response to smoothness, to potentially reduced eye strain if you're sensitive at all to that.... Not to mention, you're getting a 4070ti.. with frame gen you're easily getting in the hundreds of FPS.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
