Computer Gaming Monitors
Posted: Sat, 2. Dec 23, 15:48
Hi All
I hope you're all well, especially in these troubled times. I look into these forums from time to time but not as much as I used to, real life getting in the way!
Ok, on with the Topic I've posted above.
I'm just building up a second computer solely to use for gaming. The new build is centred around an Asus MB which is a Rog Strix B650E-F Gaming Wi Fi DDR5. An AMD Ryzen 7 7800 X 3D Cpu, 32 GB DDR5 Ram 6000mhz Amd Expo. And a MSI Radeon RX 6750 XT Gaming X TRIO (3 Fan Model) 12 GB Graphics Card.
My Present Monitor Display is a iiyama ProLite B2409HDS 24" 2ms Monitor which (I'll probably regret saying this) I've been using for the last... ...maybe 8 -10 years (maybe even longer!), and it's still good as far as I can tell. It's refresh rate is 60hz native resolution 1920 x 1080p.
I'm just debating whether to buy a second monitor to go with this new build that would be more inline with 'gaming'.
I was thinking whether to keep to a 24" monitor with a faster refresh rate and the same resolution or perhaps a '2k' monitor 24", or maybe a larger screen?
Questions are:- Will I notice any improvement with the display if I buy a more gaming focused monitor?
What are the limitations (in respect to the core build of the computer at this present time) of choosing which type of monitor.?
As always, any suggestions welcome, either the experiences you have or had with gaming monitors (If you have one), which type would be generally suitable, which monitors to avoid for various reasons, and also bearing in mind the budget I'd be trying to keep within if possible (which is about £250).
I'd also prefer a monitor that can be adjusted for height, perhaps a small amount of tilt, (swivel not important) and colored black, also Energy efficient.
Feel free to discuss anything generally connected about the main topic!
