Posted April 14, 2019 There are 28 different 240 Hz monitors on the market. I repeat: 28 different monitors which support 240 Hz! Here is the list: https://www.displayninja.com/gaming-monitor-list/ The list does not include MSI Oculux NXG251R which MSI release a few months ago. So in total there are 28 options. I am wondering which one we should go for my brother's PC. He is mostly going to play first person shooters: Rainbow Six Siege, CS GO, BF V. The budget doesn't matter. Anything that isn't ridiculously overpriced is welcome. The most important question is which monitor can give a player the best competitive advantage? His hardware is good enough to support 240 Hz. We also tweak the settings to get the highest frames per second possible when we play competitively. i9 9900k @ 5GHz, RTX 2080 Ti, 16 GB CL14 3200 MHz 2*8 RAM Kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The competitive players tend to play on 1080p too so I think for 240 Hz 1080p is the best. Am I right? Almost all 240 Hz panels are TN. But there is no preference, of which we can speak, from our side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted April 14, 2019 G-sync and freesync are irrelevant from a competitive pov because they have some input lag, in my opinion a bigger display could be better for fps since you can spot enemies easier if they are bigger, so i would go for one of the 27inch ones, the benq one is pretty good, acers should be good too.
