In addition, they all have one thing that all gamers are looking for, a super fast response time. The Asus MLH has to be on the top of our list as the number 1 gaming monitor of the year. It also features LED backlight technology which gives you better color with its 10,, contrast ratio and less eye fatigue despite the brighter picture and lower energy output. Another nice thing about the MLH is that its easy to setup and adjust.
Another great monitor for this year is the ViewSonic VXWM which was built for gaming and movie goers for maximum performance and detail. We even got G-Sync Compatibility to work on it, despite it not being certified to do so.
This is a fantastic monitor for those with mid to high-budget gaming PCs. In terms of speed, this p screen competed well against other Hz monitors when it came to response time and input lag. In terms of image quality, this screen offers rich and saturated color ratio and contrast that hit an impressive 1, after our recommended calibration settings see page 1 of our review. At this price, the G27F is hard to top in the inch category.

In addition, it rocks HDMI 2. Although the Optix MPGUR-QD was one of the most colorful monitors we've ever tested, we do wish that that monitor had gamma presets, and properly calibrating the display resulted in drop-offs for contrast and light output. Contrast is also strong for an IPS panel, hitting 1, And for those concerned about speed, this Hz screen kept up with the Hz Gigabyte M27Q in our testing.
Its backlight strobe for fighting motion blur is also a disappointment. Its R curve proved to add an immersive touch while gaming, helping to fill our peripheral vision. There was no distortion, and we enjoyed having multiple windows open for boosted productivity. You also get a Hz refresh rate and response times and input lag that kept up with Hz rivals during our testing. On the battlefield, we realized the high pixel density of a p screen and smooth gaming without any screen tearing, thanks to FreeSync.
Color and contrast were competitive with pricier gaming displays too. At its low price, the build quality of the stand is lacking. With its impressive specs, it shined in our input lag and response time tests when pitted against Hz rivals. With a VA panel offering 3, contrast, image quality is no joke either.
But as far as HDR goes, this monitor only goes up to nits brightness; we prefer HDR displays that hit at least nits. Read: Aorus CV27Q review. If you have extra room in your budget and want to squeeze out that additional drop of performance from your p screen, the Asus ROG Strix XG27AQ may be the best gaming monitor for you.
This screen is ready to compete with the speediest of screens, competing well against other Hz screens in our response time test and falling just ms behind in our input lag test. Out of the box, we recorded solid IPS contrast 1, This is also an excellent HDR monitor, thanks to a dynamic contrast feature that bumps contrast up to a whopping 22, The Razer Raptor 27 is the best gaming monitor for Hz refresh rates.
It'll make any gamer you know jealous with premium touches, like an RGB stand, flat green cables for cable management and drool-worthy build quality. Despite its Hz refresh rate, the Raptor 27 was able to stay competitive with Hz monitors in our benchmarking. More: Razer Raptor 27 review. For speed demons, a Hz monitor hits the spot. Up until recently, that level of speed required two things: settling for p resolution and a TN panel.
We encountered a few flaws during testing. But besides those small caveats, our gaming experience was a record-breaking pleasure. The inch Samsung Odyssey G7 is in a class all its own. With this curvature, we could view productivity apps without any image distortion, and when gaming our vision was filled with action. The inch, build offers ample height for productivity and, coupled with p resolution, hits a sweet spot for gaming. In terms of image quality, the inch Odyssey G7 proved accurate before we even calibrated it while boasting a 2, contrast ratio, according to our testing.
In our response time benchmarking, this monitor kept up with similarly specced screens, doing justice to the Hz category. More: Samsung Odyssey G7 inch review.
Contrast, meanwhile, proved comparable to your typical IPS panel, but the dynamic contrast feature helped when gaming. Combined with the wide color coverage, the image impressed during gaming. In our benchmarks, it showed a competitive 6ms response time. With a Hz refresh rate, it fell behind and Hz screens from more premium brands but only by ms. Plus, the monitor feels strong and reliable, despite its lower price. Just make sure you've got a beefy enough GPU that's capable of spitting out a high number of frames.
Portable monitors have always existed as a novelty. Whenever you see one out in the wild, it's usually attached to someone's boring work laptop and tasked with displaying mind-numbing spreadsheets.
Portable monitors give you a second screen during travel without the fuss. This thin and lightweight inch IPS display has a Hz refresh rate, along with a 3ms response time, making it the perfect gaming monitor for a LAN party.
Shooters like CS: GO, and Apex Legends will benefit from the buttery smooth refresh rate, and you needn't sacrifice battery life for it. The built-in mAh battery will give you a couple of hours of gameplay, at least. The XG17 is the ideal companion screen for work and play The clarity of image, viewing angle, and color reproduction are far superior to the cheaper technology, but you'll often find a faster TN for cheaper.
The colors aren't quite so hot, but the contrast performance is impressive. In general, FreeSync monitors will be cheaper. Nowadays, though, it is possible to find G-Sync compatible FreeSync monitors if you're intent on spending less.
With a High Dynamic Range monitor, you can take advantage of the ever-growing list of games and apps that feature HDR support. It offers more vibrant colors and greater contrast but is going to drive up the price a little. Windows native HDR function also leaves a lot to be desired, and you may find you have to fiddle in the settings to get HDR looking like it should. Today's movies and games are best enjoyed in a widescreen format at a aspect ratio or above.
In , those cinematic moments will look stunted with black strips along the top and bottom. There are a host of minute variations on each ratio, but at the end of the day choosing between these depends entirely on your personal preference. And the very far-out option, if you have a little extra cash to blow, is ultra-wide aspect ratios like and and their variants.
These will provide a much more immersive, encompassing experience. Or literally, encompass yourself with a curved monitor, up to you. Refresh Rate Hz The speed at which the screen refreshes. For example, Hz means the display refreshes times a second. The higher the number, the smoother the screen will appear when you play games.
V-Sync Graphics tech synchronizes a game's framerate with your monitor's refresh rate to help prevent screen tearing by syncing your GPU frame rate to the display's maximum refresh rate. Turn V-Sync on in your games for a smoother experience, but you'll lose information, so turn it off for fast-paced shooters and live with the tearing. Useful if you have an older model display that can't keep up with a new GPU. It basically allows the monitor to sync up with the GPU.
It does by showing a new frame as soon as the GPU has one ready. FreeSync AMD's take on frame synching uses a similar technique as G-Sync, with the biggest difference being that it uses DisplayPort's Adaptive-Sync technology which doesn't cost monitor manufacturers anything.
Ghosting When movement on your display leaves behind a trail of pixels when watching a movie or playing a game, this is often a result of a monitor having slow response times. Response Time The amount of time it takes a pixel to transition to a new color and back. Often referenced as G2G or Grey-to-Grey.
Slow response times can lead to ghosting. A suitable range for a gaming monitor is between milliseconds. TN Panels Twisted-nematic is the most common and cheapest gaming panel. TN panels tend to have poorer viewing angles and color reproduction but have higher refresh rates and response times. IPS In-plane switching, panels offer the best contrast and color despite having weaker blacks. IPS panels tend to be more expensive and have higher response times. The result is more vivid colors, deeper blacks, and a brighter picture.
Peak Brightness This refers to the maximum brightness of a monitor or television and is measured in nits. Ultrawide Shorthand for monitors with aspect wider aspect ratios like or Resolution The number of pixels that make up a monitor's display, measured by height and width.
For example: x aka p , x 2K , and x 4K. He built his first gaming PC at the tender age of 16, and finally finished bug-fixing the Cyrix-based system around a year later. When he dropped it out of the window. Now he's back, writing about the nightmarish graphics card market, CPUs with more cores than sense, gaming laptops hotter than the sun, and SSDs more capacious than a Cybertruck.
