Hey so Im looking for a new monitor.

I have a 144hz monitor strictly for gaming currently, so this monitor would be my main. For everything else like normal tasks, movies, youtube, web browsing, potentially photoshop etc... so something crisp and HD

Something potentially 4k, or curved, or ultrawide.. something like that. Im not sure what is good and what isnt. So thats why I am asking for help.

Musts:

- black monitor
- 27 inch minimum, open to bigger if ultrawide etc..

Bonus:
- Acer monitor, this is not a 'must' but my other monitor is Acer, and would be nice to keep with that. But is NOT mandatory as I dont want to narrow my search to far

Budget: $500 give or take

Dell ultrasharp
They're amazing for non gaming purposes. I use them over my 165hz pg279q for everything other than fps games.

Lmao
Yeah man, I can see my mouse moving at 20fps :rofl:

They're more than 500 if u want 27+, I'd wait til they go on sale, in the mean time u can sign up for their email for coupons. Can also talk to live chat if they can hook u up with 10 or 20% discount etc. I can also hook u up with Dell promo card which is stackable. So it shd be within Ur budget. Also check out ebates.ca, u can get 4-10% cash back from Dell as well.

144hz to 60hz feels like 20fps. Is what I said, but yeah, take more stuff out of context. Keep it up

Doesn't matter what program you have open, it's the mouse cursor that looks like 20fps, which is above all apps.

Btw, congrats on the 10% for flaming me. Keep it up. Hope it was worth it.


Yep taking shit out of context :rolleyes:
No point trying to back track, pathetic.
Just stay clueless af

You said "see my mouse moving". Which is ambiguous to both things that I said (iuno which one you were referring to).

In any event, you said u have a 165hz monitor? Now go back to your 60hz monitor and tell me how it feels.

Tell me how it really feels. Don't lie

look = see
look =/= feel

continue to be pathetic and back track some more clueless af miller.

It feels fucking awesome, ultrasharps color quality can't be compared. Hence why I said i use it for everything other than FPS gaming. I mean if it was such a "HUGE" difference like you state (seeing 20fps mouse moving :rofl:), i would've ditched the ultrasharp and got myself another pg279q monitor. I dont need to lie like you, and don't have trust issues :rofl:

"It feels fucking awesome" from going to 165hz to 60? Lol, lies lies lies.

Go google, and read how millions of other people disagree with that.

just how you desperately linked a CS:GO subreddit to pathetically attempt to defend yourself, when we said there's no difference for non gaming purposes? :rofl:
try harder and keep up the clueless af persona. You can also google and read how millions of other people disagree with you.
Lying is when you can see 20fps mouse cursor LMAO
