Hi,
Can you guys help me find my ideal monitor? Here are the information that I can provide you guys.
- Budget: 800$ Canadian
- Games I play: League of Legends, Overwatch, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds and Fortnite. I also play horror games and Rise of the tomb raider.
- Refresh rate: 144hz or more
- Panel type preference: 1) IPS, 2) VA, 3) TN
- Resolution and Size: 1080p - 24", 1440p - 27". Heard that 34-35" 1080p UW is a waste of money? so that why i'm not considering it.
- Bezels: Slim, I hate fat bezels but If there is no choice then I will deal with it.
- Company preference: 1) Asus, 2) LG. AOC/Viewsonic/Acer is not here since I don't like their monitor aesthetic or it doesn't fit my build color scheme and Dell has banding issues(I tried their monitors).
- Adaptive sync: I guess Gsync since I have an nvidia GPU(GTX 1080).
- Specs: I7-7700k, GTX 1080, 16Gb 3200mhz.
Here are the monitor that I found based on PcPartPicker:
- PG248Q (1080p,TN, 180hz, Gsync)
- PG258Q (1080p, TN, 240hz, Gsync)
- MG279Q(1440p, 144hz, IPS but has a horrible stand and I don't want to wall mount it). TN version of this is the same price as IPS.
I am thinking of getting a PG258Q or MG279Q but I am open for other suggestions.
