Re: Does black bars give more fps?
Black bars are the result of running your monitor at a lower resolution than native and then forcing the monitor to maintain the aspect ratio of your custom resolution, hence the black bars. Assuming those factors are true and is how you plan on using black bars, then yes, in general you can expect...

Re: Samsung QD OLED
Man I have been trying to hold off but you are really selling me on this thing. Last year I bought the Acer XB273U GX after only ever using TN panels, and while the monitor is mostly great, I learned quickly that IPS glow is a gigantic downside. Games with a lot of dark scenes (Escape from Tarkov) ...

Re: Samsung QD OLED
Been playing csgo all day....this monitor is CRIMINALLY good. The level of motion clarity with the brightness you get for a non BFI monitor is just insane. My Asus XG27AQM 240hz with ELMB got nothing on this. Absolutely nothing. I honestly can't quite believe this thing really exists lol. Oh and wa...

Re: Looking for: best 27" 240hz+ counter-strike monitor
My Acer Nitro XV272U Xb https://www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/model/UM.HX2AA.X03 https://www.amazon.com/Acer-XV272U-Xbmiipruzx-Agile-Splendor-DisplayHDR400/dp/B08M6B6T1H came in today but I only had about 30 mins to get an initial impression. To re-baseline, I'm coming from a 165hz 27" Omen 27i. I ...

Re: Inputlag/floaty mouse in every game and on desktop
From the looks of it, you have enough parts to build an entirely separate PC. Have you tried an entirely separate PC to see if it exhibits any of the same behavior?

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
640x480 for life!! I don't have any issue with 27" other than the motion handling which is challenging. Right now I'm sacrificing that for better tap feeling with sensitive guns like AK/deagle + AWP fast shooting as soon as the awp delay ends. Those guns I'm really sensitive to after nearly 20+ yea...

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 mo...

Re: Acer XB273U GX (270Hz 1440p IPS) review
So my takeaway from your statement is that while you feel the monitor delivers value you still feel there is something more responsive from TN panels? I came from a 144hz TN panel, this panel is sooo much smoother. Especially when I can drive the frames way high like in CSGO. I do however notice th...
