Looking to buy a new monitor

Irish_PXzyan · Apr 7, 2014

I'm concerned about the crossovers anti-glare coating as it's not matte :/ It still looks good though but I dunno...

I wouldn't be bothered with the OC to 120hz but in the future I might be.. will have to consider it.
So the 63amg has a 4k res at 30hz? sounds kinda cool but pointless?
I can't stand playing games at 30 frames! but I really would love to see 4k res in action though ^^

Irish_PXzyan · Apr 7, 2014

They're good detailed reviews I must say! I will dig deep into them and hopefully I'll finally have the monitor of the future ^^

Are you planning on driving this new monitor with the laptop you have on order or is there another PC that you have that will be driving this new monitor? If it is the laptop, then you need to see what kind of resolution output capabilities it has before buying anything.

Irish_PXzyan · Apr 9, 2014

Oh no not at all, the laptop will just use it's own display and the monitor will be for my desktop rig that's listed in my spec list.
The laptop GPU would probably stuggle running 1440p anyway

144hz vote.

if you decide to wait till higher budget is avialable have a look on http://www.komplett.ie/komplett/pro...85/iiyama-prolite-xb2779qs-s1-27/details.aspx
review for it http://www.prad.de/new/monitore/test/2013/test-iiyama-xb2779qs-s1.html but en translation isnt ready yet

Nah to 144hz

I don't want to be forced to buy high end GPUs to get such high frame rates

60hz is perfectly fine for myself ^^

Yeah that monitor looks good, bit pricey though! but I will have to consider it anyway.
But at the moment the Crossover is very hard to ignore.

Those 144hz monitors has tn panel which dont offer as good, clean and colorfull picture "and black is black and not gray"
Why even bother to buy 144hz tn when u can get 120hz ips?

I personally like Crossover alot, maybe not the best monitor for Battlefield players but for that price its absolutely perfect(in my opinion)

Ja.KooLit · Apr 10, 2014

you will use your vapor x 7950? for 1440p? i think it will struggle. although high setting games and no AA has no problem. i have crossover 3020mdp and playing with this res was so good. but when i had 7950, it struggle in new games. but can lower settings so it is playable

arskatb · Apr 10, 2014

hi settings runs fine without aa

Irish_PXzyan · Apr 13, 2014

I don't fuss over max settings so I will be fine

I usually always play with FXAA or just 2x MSAA with 4x AF and don't care for ambient oclusion and stuff ^^
7950 will do the job very well for me! thankfully ^^
