What's your IQ and why is it under 50?

fuck, Tribes Ascend was underrated AF. I enjoyed the shit out of that game

I eel more homosexual from just seeing this

It better be 4k 144hz.

I do not think there are any 4K 144Hz TN screens. OP's is 1440p or 1080p.

Which is sad, because for $500, you can get IPS@1440p@144Hz:

>$450

Does it have tilt, swivel, and pivot?
What resolution?
Any G-Sync or FreeSync?

Do people genuinely like this "gamer" aesthetic?

I bought a 1440p144 IPS monitor for $300, how does that make you feel?

Not with my specs. Forgot to add IPS

Yes to all. Freesync. Also, it's 27" 1440p 144 Hz. And no, I'm not happy with that thing.

SHAZBOT!
No, it's ugly. But I don't care either. Under the hood is what's important

>And no, I'm not happy with that thing.
why not?

>No, it's ugly. But I don't care either. Under the hood is what's important
I don't mean you specifically, someone must like it considering how prevalent it is.

Because getting proper image quality is impossible. Distance to the monitor, height, angle and even ambient lighting must be perfect.
I also can't seem to get it calibrated properly. Only thing that's awesome is the speed. Zero ghosting is pretty cool.

TN panel is all about speed. The colors are never going to be fantastic unless you get IPS panel.

I was thinking about getting a 24" 1440p to replace my 24" 1080p. Apparently it doesn't even look too much sharper tho so maybe I should look for high refresh IPS panel and upgrade muh color gamut instead.

used to play the shit out of that back when I had no responsibilities

I paid $700

You could've got the same thing, but freesync instead, for $500. On a scale of 1-10, how much do you regret throwing away $200?

Zero, because my video card is an NVIDIA one not AMD.

Nvidia supports freesync.

Not in January 2017 when I purchased the monitor

When you have IPS options for the same price, why?

Now make it ultrawide and it would be the perfect budget option.

I don't really research things when I buy them, but apparently $700 was an awful price for it even then - it was often on sale for $550 or something
Also doesn't IPS have worse response times? I bought it for vidya games

filtered.

Thats a terrible price. I paid $433 for a xl2546, 240hz. supports both freesync and gsync

>underrated AF

I take it you weren't on /v/ in 2011/2012 when it was popular here. Judging by the way you talk, you really don't seem like you belong here either

Is that monitor Asyncable?

>Also doesn't IPS have worse response times?
Yes, but we are talking a few milliseconds that you most likely will not notice, since we are looking at a 144Hz IPS alternative, not a 60HZ IPS alternative.

>I don't really research things when I buy them
That is awful for an oldfriend of Jow Forums, Jordan. It is like being Jow Forumsizen since 2008 and still being fat.

>Also doesn't IPS have worse response times? I bought it for vidya games
Technically, but the differences are miniscule (like 3-4ms) and something like a 144Hz IPS panel is going to beat a 60Hz TN panel in terms of responsiveness.

>That is awful for an oldfriend of Jow Forums, Jordan.
Jordan the absolute mongol has been here only since around 2014 or 2015

keep your gatekeeper bullshit out of Jow Forums

Are you a fucking braindead?
Oh, wait, of course your are.

I've noticed a correlation between anime girl posters and snarky, obnoxious attitudes. It makes it really easy to pick you out of a crowd and ignore for future reference. Why post?

They have. I'm using a 1440p 144 Hz IPS monitor.

Welcome to TN monitors. You sacrificed image quality and viewing angle for sheer speed when you chose it over IPS.

inaccurate, nigger has been here forever

My ips 27" just came in and I feel like it's slower than my TN 24" in shooters.
They told me I couldn't tell the difference.
It'll probably only take a week of ips only before I cant remember the differences, and it's not slow enough to complain about. But it definitely feels floatier, but I also have 3rd world internet so I'll need to try some single player shit after work

That game makes me sad

Jordan has been here since 2009, at the very least.

i'm buying a $1000 240Hz 1440p tn panel set to release within the next few weeks, they're fine

What game are you playing at 1440p where TN@240Hz is better than IPS@144Hz? I can only think of professional CS:GO.

alright niggers. What's the cream of the crop for IPS high refresh rate?
I want Gsync/Freesync.

how does it feel having the same tech as a calculator screen?

Why is there such a huge price gap between 1440p/120Hz+ and 2160p/120Hz+ screens? I want to buy a new monitor but feel like 1080 will become obsolete in next years and 1440p is such an awkward resolution that only generates upscaling artifacts on all 1080p content while 2160p scales prefectly with both 720p and 1080p

1440 is a 16:9 aspect ratio. Literally how can you say 2160 (1.78:1) scales perfectly with 720 and 1080 when they are 16:9?

What? 3840x2160 is 16:9.

whats 1.78*9?

Me too. Remember that it got killed for some shitty moba.

Kill yourself

RIP Tribes Ascend

>calibrating a TN display
lol

Yeah I figured I'll just go with what looks decent and doesn't crush blacks. It's for vidya after all

>Because getting proper image quality is impossible. Distance to the monitor, height, angle and even ambient lighting must be perfect.
ah yes, this old meme from ISP/VA users

Checked! It's true tho. Even minimal changes to those things will ruin the picture.

Aren't you that mutt who lives here in NZ? Why are you worried about 4ms response times with a 400ms ping?

Ah I see, they gaymen TN shill squad is out of the woodwork again.
