2. Administrators Jabo Posted June 6, 2020 2. Administrators Share Posted June 6, 2020 Hello chaps, So I'm in the market to replace my venerable Samsung monitor with something new and shiny (and with a VESA mount - which the Samsung does not have). Having done some reading, I see that there are three main display types - TN, VA and IPS. There are pros and cons to all three of these, but which monitor/type have you guys gone for? And what informed your decision? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted June 6, 2020 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted June 6, 2020 Acer Predator XB241H Why? - It's 24" can't fit anything bigger in - It does G-Sync, which I wanted to fix stuttery in il2 1946. That did fix it, too bad we quit 1946 a few months later I think... TN, VA, IPS? Dunno, do not really care. Yes, put them side by side, I may see the difference - but this one looks good. And if I cannot see things in game that others can, I blame my eyesight... that's the quickest "solution" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfesser Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 I like to use toms guides as a start when looking for hardware. Search "tom's guide gaming monitor" and see what they say Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2. Administrators Jabo Posted June 8, 2020 Author 2. Administrators Share Posted June 8, 2020 Thanks Sid but I wasn't looking to spend £500+ on a monitor. I'll check Tom's Hardware out though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
