What is your favorite monitor? P.S. I've posted more alternatives for all monitor categories in the description of this video. Check them out if the one I recommended is out of stock in your region.

Easiest way i explain resolution to customers is the larger the screen, the higher the res you need to get the same picture. No 4k does not look good on a 1080 p monitor, it will just make everything look tiny. Using 1080p on a 1440p monitor will make things look less clear and larger than normal. You should play the resolution that is native to the screen, Full stop. 4k on a big TV has the same fidelity as 1080p on a small monitor.

I used to have a 24 inch monitor for 5 years in my old gaming PC, and I used 24 inch monitors my whole life. I thought 32 inch would be way too much but once I got the Samsung Neo G8 for my new gaming PC it just felt so natural. I don't think I can ever go back to 24 inch.

Thanks Vadim! A proud owner of MSI G274QPD-QD came from Previous IPS and VA. This little Quantum Dot Monitor can give your life full of vivid and vibrant color in Premium mode. Though the RGB mode is probably the best for general usage. I suspect they use samsung panel. ps. mine have moderate ips glow but I do gaming and editing in bright ambient. If you love to do stuff in the dark VA probably the way if you are bother by IPS glow.

Nice ....much needed video... clarify all the doubts... thankyou ❤

this video is awesome. all I have been looking for as a monitor buying guide.

Very good video đź‘Źđź‘Źđź‘Ź , I am on LG 27GL850( Rtx 4070ti) , will upgrade to 4k in 2025 when RTX 5080 comes out .

I use 27 inch 4k monitor with RX 6800. Enjoy it very much, especially the system interfaces looks very clear and the biggest plus for me is clear text on screen :) In games where RX 6800 is not enough I use upscalers ;)
-
I just got the m27q-p as a secondary monitor to the LG c3 42, and I'm considering a 32 1440p instead just due to the sheer size of the c3. If I want the screens side by side, it will be a toss up as to whether i'll even notice 1440p on a 32 at that distance.
-
I’ve been on the M32U for a year now. By far my fave size/res.
-
Just snagged up the 32" Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 today for 750 USD on sale. Cannot WAIT to get it tomorrow!
-
What's your opinion on MSI OPTIX MAG245R2 And VIEWSONIC XG2405? Which one I should Buy?
-
Ive had 27" 1080p monitors for near on 20 years now, just switched to 1440p when half my games load up in 1080p i literally cant see the difference except on super fine text
-
Thank you. I cannot decide, damn it. I want a 4k monitor with 240hz, not smaller than 32 inches. However, I am still determining if I should buy bigger or if this is enough for gaming and Vegas Pro editing? (it must be G-Sync) Thanks, that's a very pro video! I have your recommendation in mind, and that is the SAMSUNG Odyssey Neo G7 32" LS32BG750NPXEN. What do you think?

Thoughts on the AOC Gaming U28G2XU2

Very helpful! Thank you

I made the stupid mistake of getting a 27 inch 1440p monitor and it´s bloody nice with crisp picture but yeah no my RX 6600 does not have the power to run allot of my games at 1440p. So had to sell it and now I spent all day looking for a new 1080p montior. Im so used to 27 inch so moving down to 24/25 inch feel some what to small but then again even with a 27 inch I will have the same screen real estate.

I am on 24” my whole life. Basically ever since I was 17 when I went from notebook that was like 1366x768 resolution max (probably like 17 inch) to my first 24” monitor. Not too long ago I bought a pc that is capable of 4K easily and I feel like by still being on fhd I’m blocking the full potential of rtx3080.
