I really can't decide

Go to solution Solved by Wydz,

out of those ones, get the VG248QE

 

its an amazing monitor

 

source: im looking at one right now in my setup ;) 

i really can't decide between: http://www.mediadot.ro/compara-produse.php?id1=116957&id2=219152&id3=&id4=224036&id5=276294& (hint: right click - translate to english)

 

some background: i get motion sickness from almost all single player FPS, i mostly game on my pc, but there are days when i binge anime and movies

 

24 Asus VG248QE has a standard rez and is nice cuz i like to play competitive: pvp in mmos, cs:go, overwatch, lol, dota, smite, etc.

 

LG 29UB67-B and LG 29UM68-P is 75hz and awesome for RPGs, media, my motion sickness in some games for a more "natural" FOV 

but i'm a bit cared that 29' it's a bit too big for me (that my eyes will have to move to much, which will add fatigue)

 

LG 25UB55-B is cheaper, and not 29' ... but it's 60hz 

 

why these 4 ? ... it's what i can find in my country that are relative good and in my price range 260-360$ :D

 

for the past mount i searched for the "magic" monitor, but it's so frustrating to inform myself with TN vs IPS and the tons of variations of it, 16:9 vs 21:9, support for rez like 2560x1080, cables, 

and on top of that you don't find clear product info like ?hz you only get ?ms (ex: u can have 144hz at 1ms or 4ms and at 5ms u can have 60hz or 75hz), so annoying  :(

 

please help me decide on one of them

These aren't bad monitors per say, but you should consider 2560x1440 resolution at those screen size. It will be so much better for generic browsing, editing and gaming. If you could find affordable 1440p 25-27" IPS monitors where you live, and if you have the GPU horsepower to render all those pixels in-game, it would be nice to consider them. Otherwise, go for a 24"-25" IPS 1920x1080 monitor, it's be sharper than FHD resolution on 27"+

How are the colours and viewing angles on it?  

Viewing angles arent TOO bad for a TN panel, which I mean it's a TN, an IPS would shit all over it if you want good viewing angles

 

The colors, once again, arent as vibrant as a IPS panel (I have a Dell U2312HM sitting right next to it as well as an Acer H236HLbid [both IPS], and I can tell a world of difference). But still, for a TN the colors are great, it took me about an hour setting the colors to the way I wanted them, out of the box they aren't the best so you will have to tinker with them for a bit

 

but overall its a great, smooth monitor, especially around the $250 price point, currently $230 I think on Amazon in the US
