Re: Looking for: best 27" 240hz+ counter-strike monitor

Ived noticed 2 things when it comes to this monitor I havent seen elsewhere:

1- VRB setting does not hold when powering off then on (could be my ignorance behind the tech)
2- VRB is greyed out when using multiple monitors, even if the other monitor is using the integrated GPU and ACER the nVidia

Re: Looking for: best 27" 240hz+ counter-strike monitor

I couldn't be happier. the thing performs so well! Still 0 issue with any retention since the monitor has 'warmed up'.

The bad part is when 360hz IPS 1440p comes out I will want it :)

Re: Once and for all, Advise for monitor choice

I seem to be of a similar 'persona' as you. Here are my initial thoughts on the ACER nitro XV272U Xb

Re: Acer XB273U GX (270Hz 1440p IPS) review

I ended up getting the ACER Nitro XV272U Xb, which is essentially the same monitor without predator branding. I posted my thoughts below in my thread searching for a top counter-strike monitor. If I can answer any questions on this similar monitor let me know. https://forums.blurbusters.com/viewtopi...

Re: Looking for: best 27" 240hz+ counter-strike monitor

Thanks for your input. Im glad you're of a similar use case and feel its buttery smooth. I ended up pulling the Acer Nitro XV272U Xb trigger because: -My Omen 27i motion blur is playable but annoying - I spend too much time on CS to deal with that -Motion handling settings -black boost -1440p fits ...

Re: Looking for: best 27" 240hz+ counter-strike monitor

Figured I would chime in here since it sounds like we're pretty similar. I've played CS since the beta in 1999. I am hyper sensitive to monitor performance. When I switch from a CRT to an LCD screen in ~2006, I realized I made a huge mistake due to the performance of LCDs at that time. I ran that m...

Re: Looking for: best 27" 240hz+ counter-strike monitor

Hi, thank you both for your reply. I play 1.6 (hence stuckin2003 :)) mainly on 27" 640x480 black bars on my OMEN 27i. Like I said, on the extreme setting I can get it close to feeling like my VG248QE but it has motion issues from time to time. I completely agree with you sk1p, something about the V...
