If you have an AMD GPU, I suggest one of these.

monitor thread? monitor thread. do you guys think a 480 can handle 3440 x 1440p?

idk if it would be good. Would just stick with 1080 instead.

>>58644090
oh thanks for the chart this is great! looking for something between $2-400 to last a while.

Op just get both, it shouldn't be that much more. I guess it really depends on whether you can maintain a high enough fps to take advanatge for the high refresh rate, otherwise go with the freesync monitor.

>>58640645
why not 144hz freesync? you can get one for around 200~

Neither, get a decent 24" 60hz IPS

Pros: Cheaper, better colour accuracy and viewing angles, perfect size for the average viewing distance

Cons: A few milliseconds extra lag

My theory though is that the brightness gained beyond the bad gamma viewing angles of a TN panel make even that tiny amount of lag a non-issue. Pic related

>>58643911

480 would regularly go below 60fps with that

Non-standard resolution (poor compatibility) and most of the screen being outside even decent peripheral vision means it's a bad idea

Freesync doesn't add as much to the total cost of a monitor as Gsync does, if you can afford a 144Hz then you save up for another few weeks and get one with freesync

http://au.pcpartpicker.com/user/Venzan/saved/

which should I go for?

number one's monitor is Freesync

>>58646828
the cards are neck and neck but I'd go with Number 1, monitor sync is really good. You used to be able to upgrade that Asus one with a gsync module but I don't think they even sell those anymore, and they were hugely expensive anyway

>>58646934

now let's say I put an 8gb 1070 in the second build

would you still recommend the first?

>>58646676
I really call bull shit on this. As a boilermaker I'd constantly 'flinch' at sparks going to my eyes a moment before impact saving my sight. This 24fps shit in my mind is only explainable by the motion blur we experience, but I put it to you this is with reason. It helps up calculate speed and direction of objects.
Video very related.

I'm just a lonely man looking for a debate on a subject that's unlikely to have a defined answer.

Any thoughts about LG's 22/23/24MP68VQ monitors? They're the cheapest freesync I can find here, or should I invest my money into something else?

>>58647182
>unlikely to have a defined answer.

But thats wrong. Which is an odd thing to miss considering you posted some youtube shit, when you could've youtubed the actual answer.
The human eye can see way more than "24 fps", 24fps is the bare minimum for motion to look fluid with motion blur (in movies), without motion blur (not the post processing effect) it is still choppy.

>>58647214
But what's the upper limit?
Anyone measured the frequency of impulses coming from our eyes to the brain?

>>58640645
144 all day

It's like going from HDD to SSD, there's nothing like it

>>58647242

Nothing solid, or possibly measurable, as it depends on both the person and his situation.

Your example being a good one, know that "time slows down when in danger" thing? It is adrenaline and a bunch of other chemicals boosting your perception to its "limit", so you can see the incoming danger and react to it.
When put in numbers that would be akin to your perception "running at say 100fps" by default, but due to the circumstances it gets boosted to "400fps" and as you perceive more of the world, time seems to slow down instead. Ofcourse its not that simple, but it is basically how it works.

>>58647242
a few years ago I read about how they tested fighting jet pilots in simulators
they had to react to other jet appearing on the screen and they capped roughly at the jet appearing for 1/250 of a second so I guess ~250fps is more than enough considering they were fucking jet pilots, not some subhuman video gaymer playing counter strike pretending to have superhuman reaction and eye hand coordination
I don't think anything above 144hz makes much of a difference really

why should i get a freesync monitor when the best gpus don't support it?

>>58647242
>But what's the upper limit
As many fps as our world has, infinity.

>>58647281
>>58647331
Cheers.
250fps seems about right.
>subhuman video gaymer playing counter strike pretending to have superhuman reaction and eye
>I don't think anything above 144hz makes much of a difference really
In that case I think 180+fps could be a handicap almost. Considering it's still only 60 tick servers. Could end up 'prefireing' on corners.
>>58647365
Smartass.
There's probably an answer to this, I can't imagine the sun and other light sources plus reflections could add up to infinity.

>>58647409
also implying our brain has infinite processing power

>>58647409
Frequency of* the sun and other light sources plus reflections could add up to infinity.

>>58647331

Competitive vidya gamers of ye olde CRT times were actually the closest in reaction times to jet pilots and such.

>>58647409

Diminishing returns apply heavily to refresh rate, the difference between 144 and 180 is miniscule compared to anything before it. As you say - in the packet delays/tickrate already caps you far more.

>>58647430
Depends if we operate on a restricted wavelength. i.e. Single band is restrictive as it depends on the neural network. But if we operate on multi-banding, that greatly expands on our processing power.

Probably a shitty explanation but I think it gets the point across.

Just bought this (waiting on Best Buy to say it's ok to come pick up)
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/dell-27-led-gsync-monitor-black/5293502.p?skuId=5293502

I've noticed most of these monitors ITT are 24"
Is 27" too big for only 1440p?

>>58647603
I've got a 24' 1080. I think that's the upper limit for those as monitors. 27' 1440p should be more than fine. Might be a little big for gaming. But that's an each their own size.

>>58647603

No, 27" 1440p is great, I use it and I'd be more afraid of 24" 1440p making things way too small in general.
Its also great for splitting to 4x720p for multitasking.

>>58648288
>>58647655
sweet, currently using 25" 1080p and after I got my 4k laptop this just looks so awful, like when you see old people still using 800x600

>>58648423
Anyone really, just mostly older women that do it.

>>58648343

>4k laptop

Well I found that kind of shit unbearable on 15" and 17" even.

I think 1440p/27 hits a good density, right before everything on the internet starts looking too small.

>>58648455
I scale to 1440p, but the added pixels help make text look extra nice

>>58648486
Well yeah but some things just don't take to scaling too well, and in the end I found it pointless, would rather have just 1440p in those too (which would still make me scale things up).

But at home, 27"1440p middle, two vertical 1200p screens is pretty damn nice.

>>58640645
Freesync is a meme. Ask yourself do I need a fast monitor or one with good colour. Then buy either 144hz or an IPS/PLS.

>>58648555

I want both.

>>58648569
Your only choice for resolution is 1440p and they're expensive.

>They don't manufacture a fucking thing.
What do you think becoming great again is all about?

>>58648831

Exactly what I said, if the US wants to manufacture its own shit - the consumer paradise will be lost because they are waaay behind the competition and such improvements need money, money that will be taken from the consumer.

As a 3rd worlder this hardly affects me, in fact it can be positive for me.

If you ise this chart, make sure you actually look up the monitors. Didnt check every one, but it lists the xb271hu as a freesync monitor, when it's a gsync monitor.
