Hey! Did not wanted to create separate topic for this but after all I have a hard time deciding. Monitor for singleplayer games, dark souls, bloodborne and many sp games like new metro exodus. I am ok with 60hz since those games are either locked to 60fps (soulsborne) or are very demanding...

https://4k-monitor.ru/reviews/obzor_acer_nitro_vg270up/ 27", 1440p, 144hz, 100/120hz strobing, freesync. Very good review results (translate) and most importantly - 400$ price. Stand is not adjustable but the monitor does have vesa mount. Cannot find it anywhere for sale yet. Good to see some...

https://www.asus.com/Monitors/VG279Q/ Just came out about a month ago unnoticed. A late to the party, 1080p IPS panel(On Asus site it says IPS so LG?) with 144hz, Freesync and some strobing modes (no idea if it's 120hz strobing or 144) I personally think it is pretty interesting proposition...

Hey. Anyone have link to resolution interpolation test image? Prad.de always uses it in their reviews. like this: https://www.prad.de/testberichte/test-lg-27uk850-w-attraktives-gesamtpaket/4/#Interpolation edit: btw - It looks like lg 27uk850 have just as good 1080p scaling as 4k eizo monitor...

New 4k 60hz ips just came out. Seems like direct competition to LG 27uk650(same price) and Asus PB27UQ(asus is 100$ more expensive). Couldn't find any response times measurements in comparison to monitors mentioned above so not sure if it's good for console and/or pc gaming. The few opinions and...

Hey! Even though my pc and consoles are not fully 4k ready (gtx 1060 6gb and ps4), I am looking at 4k upgrade options. I am running 4k dsr in all of my older games and 4k dsr 30fps in some newer games. Right now I am using 27" 1080p ips. It's hp 27ea. Almost glossy (sweet) ips with good colors...

After a bit of a failure with 27" 1080p Benq ew277hdr, I am looking ag 27" 4k monitors for maximum image quality. The biggest problem with 4k montiors ever since is suppsoedly bad blurring/scaling of 1080p resolution. Many people say "it's perfect because 4k is 4x1080p and pixels..." bullshit...

Just asking about the "old" golden standard 1080p, 60hz, IPS or VA. Good calibration and so on. I know that nothing changed on high refresh rate front, so there is no point even talking about that unfortunately. There are still only very grainy, bad quality IPS, TN and curved VA (except that one...

Ah... another year, another monitor with yet another bug crawling inside. Last year my trusty IIyama xb2483hsu-b2 got a visitor: And this year, few months old HP 27ea got a little asshole roommate. I blame the summer and not enough of a tight seal on a matrix of these monitors. But mostly...

Hey everyone! Since 4k is where things are going in long terms, I am thinking about upgrading to 4k... so I started digging again (just months ago I've had 240hz, gsync, 144hz, multiple ips montiors and now have simple hp 27ea as a nice stop gap) and the market is still in a weird/bad place...

Hey everyone. I've went through quite a few monitors lately. Two AOC AG251FG monitors and two Dell U2417H. I wanted to give a fair chance to decent ips and fair chance to newest and greatest gsync 240hz technology after owning amva 60hz montior for about 2 years. In short - Dell ips completely...

Hey, I've had interesting discovery today and not yet sure if it's an issue on my end or another Chrome bug/problem. I've just noticed that images become washed out/brighter when viewing in Chrome in comparison do Edge or windows 10 images viewer. It's not due to uploading. Just drag image to...

Hey! I just returned my 2nd AOC AG251FG and these both had very bad bezel backlight bleeding. The picture if over saturated but You can see what I am talking about. Contrast was in reality but glowing whole edges of the screen were distracting. It also had terrible 1.8 gamma... I don't even need...

Hi everyone! Overall I have: -gtx 1060 gigabyte 6gb g1 (new) -evga g2 550w psu (new) -fractal define c case (new) -3.5' sshdd firecuda (system is on plextor ssd) (new) -fiio e10k as sound card -2500k, asrock p67 pro3, 2x8gb kingstone 1333 (2012) 2500k is running stable at 4.5 for like 5 years...

I got rift in recent sale and Even though it looked ok, there was this film grain over part of the screen. Totally ruining black scenes or just dark scenes. The "dirt coat" even made normal color image look somehow worse. I disabled "SPUD" in registry and it totally removed mura calibration and...

Hey everyone! Win 10 here, installed on ssd. LGS software for my mouse (g400) starts about 10-15 seconds into win10 boot. Until that time, mouse defaults to low dpi. Is there a way to speed up launching of this service ? thanks

Hi, I have Cambridge soundworks dt2200 which I am using in 2.1 setup for last 15 (!!!) years. It sound great and I really like it but I am thinking about moving on to something more clutter free. Any powered 2.0 speakers on a budget? I will be plugging them in the back of e10k. thanks!

Hey everyone! I was always using some noname silicone or silver paste. Did some reading because I wanted something universal, that is non conductive and can be used for cpu, gpu, console etc. Easy to clean, long lasting and performing at least well... Don't know if I did well but ordered Arctic...

Hey everyone. I am getting a lot of coil whine from my corsair 600w gs from 2012 and I Guess it needs replacement. About the coil whine - I get it as constant low whistle or short whistling if that means anything. Usually when vid is jumping around. Already set voltage to fixed but that didn't...

Hey everyone. I bought this in 2012 and it's still going strong. I don't mind capping games to 30fps with riva tuner if needed but I feel like my pc might need some cheap refreshing anyway. I will post list of my parts and what I think about them. This is what I have: Motherboard: Asrock p67...

Hey everyone. I just got Benq Gw2470h and its a well made monitor. no problems with it except some ghosting which is to be expected with amva but the quality of finish on bottom bezel is super weird. It looks like it was molded incorrectly and not matted in all places. It is only seen under...

Hey everyone ! My Dell U2312hm which I got back in 2012 thanks to (as always) great advices here is getting long in the tooth. I really like the display but it lacks hdmi and have rather bad blacks and bad uniformity/ips glow. Not ideal for movies and gaming in dark room. I am a bit on a...

Hi guys. I am currently on my onboard acl892. it's not bad but many people insist that I should get external sound card or amp+dac to get a real proper sound. I am mostly using headphones(as for now sound blaster tactic sigma 32ohm) but I also have 2.1 cambridge soundworks creative speakers...

I just got a 7870 from gigabyte and its an awesome card. Just something I've noticed. The end of the card is lower than the front. It is so heavy that it is slipping down the pci-e slot. Not like its going to crack or fell out or anything tho :P Should I support it with something or hang it...

Hi guys. couple of month ago I got this (silentiumpc spartan- kinda of a new brand becoming more popular in Poland) for about 30usd. I was using it for my old e6300 but it was causing plenty of vibration.. maybe due to bad thermal grease, I am not sure. here it is: It came with this fan...
