I was looking into getting a entry level 4K moniter. was wondering what you guys would suggest I am looking for very low lag moniters the one ive seen that I was interested in is.

My only issue is I see people who complain about the moniter have some BAAAAD experiences. Like Black light bleed and very poor picture quality apparently. Screen Flashing and Dead Pixels as well. Also the black coming out as GREY ...

Also HDMI ports not working just alot of different things. And I would like something reliable I would like to NOT waste my money on something thats going to break consistantly and quickly. Also states HDR dont work properly eighter LOL

 

Also I have a decent 43" Vizio TV thats pretty decent that I currently use and do not want to DOWNGRADE so thats why I need your help. Also if you could tell me why gaming moniters are better than TV's for gaming ? if both are near the same amount of lag what else is the difference ? I simply heard its better for more hardcore gamers and hence why I would like to swtich if its superior compared to a TV.

 

Do you guys know of a 4K moniter thats as lagless and near that price point that is more reliable ? It will mainly be used for PS4 / PS5 gaming and watching videos on my PC which is a amd FX 8350 CPU with a AMD RX 480 GPU.

 

 

 

Thank you for any suggestions / info

yea 60Hz is fine because PS4 and PS5 can only do 60HZ anyhow I heard PS5 will be 4K 60Hz so considering it wont be used that much for pc gaming the 60 should do me just fine.

That is an old revamped Innolux panel that is 2015 vintage.

It does have a very fast response time and was tested in a Samsung version by LTT. 

The panel itself is very reliable. I own 2 of them(one Samsung, one ASUS).

 

The down side to is that it is a TN panel. The upside is that it has better color than a lot of cheap IPS monitors.

 

There are a lot cheaper versions of this panel.

Acer has one for less than $300
