Wiki 1558 Posted March 8, 2016 Hi guys. I need to change my monitor, but don't know which one I should take now. It will be for gaming most of the time. Here are the spec I seek: -27" (or more) -FHD (minimum) UHD (if possible) -G-Sync -Price about 400 euros Thanks for your help! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anthariel 165 Posted March 8, 2016 Well, UHD stand for Ultra High Definition, wich is 4K so a 4K G-Sync monitor under 400€ is not possible ^^ Even G-Sync is not usefull for the 4K at the moment. And in general, the G-sync module is itself ~120€ so... (you may be can found some Gsync monitor at this price but less than 27" and probably with a not so good TN panel) if I was you I would rather look for the freesync module from AMD wich is way less expensive and the up-coming AMD Polaris architecture looks awesome so :) ( ) For under 400€ with free-sync, you have better options like: https://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B00VX8YX42?SubscriptionId=AKIAIIN3YAWIOWEJ7C7Q&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B00VX8YX42&linkCode=xm2&tag=shoptimate073-21 for 282,33 € and it's ultrawide so <3 However it's 60Hz only :( (also http://www.ldlc.be/informatique/peripherique-pc/moniteur-pc/c4623/p1e48t3o0a1+fv889-4957,4947,8362,4948,9961+fc2210-1.html ) However, you can set up your budget a little bit and try this : http://www.cdiscount.com/informatique/ecrans-informatiques/acer-ecran-27-xg270huomidpx/f-10732-xg270huomidpx.html?refer=zanoxpb&cm_mmc=zanoxpb-_-1535464&cid=affil This monitor is not pretty but the pixel rate for a 27" (2560 x 1440 pixels), the freesync and 1ms response time is awesome, only the TN Panel for the colors bother me.

Wiki 1558 Posted March 8, 2016 Thanks Freesync works for nvidia GPU? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anthariel 165 Posted March 8, 2016 Unfortunately nope. Your GPU will work fine but it wouldn't be able to use the Free-Sync benefits and same if you buy a G-Sync monitor, you woudn't be able to use the G-Sync technology if you have an AMD Graphic card. Just a question, what is your current GPU? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, satisfied of this monitor. However, I use the one without gsync - cause I couldn't buy the one at the time. Glad with that purchase, but if you can buy the one with gsync, maybe it's worth it.

Johnny Drama 33 Posted January 3, 2017 cheers for your opinion. im really tryin to dig in this. The price range is just immense (340-1300+) € for 4K/ultra wide 4k, with/without Gsync.... I posted some overview in this thread: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
