$199.99 4k Monitor

Paul Rudd

$199.99 28" AOC 4k Monitor It's tough to pass on a $199.99 4k monitor. Some people don't like AOC but I find nothing wrong with them. 1ms response time as well.

 

$249.99 28" Samsung 4k Monitor Owned this monitor and miss it a lot. 28" looks massive compared to 27". Recommended for 4k gamers. 1ms response time.

 

$349.99 27" Dell 1440p 144Hz Monitor Been using this one for a good 6 months, on sale right now. Never seen it this low. Worth every penny. 1ms response time.

 

$59.99 20.7" HP 1080p Monitor Figured I'd throw this on here for insane budget gamers. Only 60Hz and 5ms response time but it will suffice nicely for your budget.

 

$165.00 24" Acer 1080p 144Hz Monitor For the 1080p gamer looking to get a NEW 144Hz monitor on the cheap. 1ms response time.

 

$140.99 24" Asus 1080p 144Hz Monitor If it has to be Asus. The $140.99 price is if you go into the store right now. It's $169.99 online. 1ms response time.

 

Snag them while you can, most likely will sell out.

Response time is pretty useless, what matters is input lag.

Depends on just how much time you've spent using different gaming monitors in general. From my experience, 1ms does make a difference but it is barely noticeable. I do recommend not going over 5-6ms. 1ms basically means you're rarely noticing the so called issues gamers are supposedly experiencing with higher ms monitors.

For K&M gamers, sure. Being a controller gamer all my life, I rarely ever experience input lag using a controller unless I game from a console on a TV.

I have an IPS and TN dual monitor setup. The difference is there but while gaming or while watching videos, the difference disappears. Not the fps difference of course. The visual difference.

There isn't s standard measurement method so the numbers from different manufacturers are pretty much random and you can't compare between them, so it's a useless metric.

 

Also input lag is what matters, response time does not affect that.

Pixel response time is mainly important for reducing ghosting on high refreshrate monitors.

Input lag matters for ANY game.

It's just more important on competitive and fps games.

Do you even know what input lag is?

Of course. I rarely use K&M to experience it. The only way I do experience it is to game on a console hooked up to a TV.

Input lag of a display literally does not depend on what controls you use.

I have not once experienced input lag on my PC using a controller. As I said, I don't use K&M much so I can't tell you about any input lag using a K&M on my PC. So maybe that's because my monitor does not have any input lag according to what you are saying. My TV does have input lag when I game on console using a controller. My TV is 4k but it's nowhere near as good as my monitor.

 

This is one of the reasons why my preferred platform is PC. When I play the same games I own on both console and PC, the input lag just doesn't exist on my PC using a controller. It does on my 4kTV using a controller though. I don't use K&M enough to have a clue if it exists using K&M. 

 

A perfect example is Ultimate Chicken Horse. On console, the input lag is insanely noticeable. Every button press is extremely delayed. When you're trying to jump up from a vertical edge, you can almost press the jump button twice to make the dude jump. But when I play the same game on PC, every button press has absolutely no delay whatsoever. I say as you are saying and that is that my monitor is much better than my 4k TV.

 

Both my 1080p 60Hz 5ms Dell monitor and my 1440p 144Hz 1ms Dell monitor have no input lag whatsoever. According to what you are saying(and what is most likely true), even if I did use K&M, I would notice no input lag on these monitors. I guess because I only use a controller and hearing people say they experience input lag using K&M, I must have confused myself to thinking it's because I use a controller on PC and experience no input lag and they use a K&M and experience input lag on PC.

 

Sheesh, lots to clear up there.
