Re: Asus VG279qm/VG259QM vs MSI MAG251RX. in depth comparison of the best IPS 240hz(i've tried them all,Amazon BAN incom

I have a few questions about the ASUS overdrive modes. Do I have to change which overdrive to use depending how many FPS I can get depending on what game I play, or is it when I use VRR/change the HZ on the monitor? I would, I see ghosting at 80 (which is the 280Hz preferred overdrive), I lower it ...

Re: VG27BQ vs Y27gq-25, best input lag

Re: 05/22/2020 UPDATE. The IPS 240hz monitor tier list.(I've measured/tried the all) and my honest explanation why.

But seriously, why would anyone spend nearly a thousand dollars to play low end/low graphically demanding games or esports titles on this monitor? There are better options with lower input lag with better response times. I have the rtx 2070 and i can barely get 80 FPS on a AAA 1440p title. what mak...

I got a headache looking at UFOs with ULMB on, but it's the first monitor that I've had that had strobing. I'll give it another shot at lower refresh rates maybe.

Re: M

So I just bought it, I'm wondering what the best settings are. So far I can either cap the game to 250 FPS (capping above doesn't actually cap anything, it goes 300+) or use VSYNC to get 280 FPS. Which one should be better? It's an RTS game, so pure speed is not necessary, but I did get a 280Hz mon...

You should do these as a YouTube review, even a few thousand views per video can get you some extra cash for your effort without compromising any integrity of the review

Re: M

So what I use now for competitive gaming is 280hz refresh rate + ELMB (with VRR disabled), at 280hz I don't really notice tearing even in the 220-280fps range. The strobe duration last 1ms compared to ELMB-Sync's 2ms, which is surprisingly long enough to remove crosstalk and idk if it's placebo but...

Re: Would appreciate suggestions for my first 240hz monitor.

There's a big thread about 240Hz IPS monitors, you can start there. I got a 280Hz IPS, but maybe that's too fast for you, since you specified 240?

I bought a VG259QM for 2449 RMB ($344) as part of the 6/18 sale. I mean, it's not 6/18 yet, but I had my gf talk to the seller and get a "price match guarantee" that if he dropped the price lower later he'll give us the difference. I split it half and half with the gf, my point being she gets it whe...

i've never owned the asus vg259qm but i'm fairly certain it has the same specs as the 27" version. Forii here owned both and claimed that the 25" version showed ghosting at 80 OD so he reduced it down to 60od generally speaking, the 280hz Asus is around 4ms response time with the fastest overall an...
