Looking at picking up a dirt cheap budget 1080p gaming monitor as a display for a second setup, and I’ve found 2 from Acer that are well reviewed with these specs respectively. Which one would provide a better experience for games with fast motion?
It depends. For general, fast-paced gaming, 165Hz is enough and the monitor being IPS is always a plus. On the other hand, if you're really tryhard (CS:GO, Valorant or even some racing games) go for 240Hz, but beware of ghosting as LigTasm said.
