The value King of 1080p 144hz monitors in 2020?

Post by ogchampion » 29 Jan 2020, 07:16

All the media attention is understandably on the new 1440p/240hz and 1080p/240hz releases this year.

That's all fine and good, but for my money, 1080p/144hz is still the sweet spot for most people, most of the time, all things considered.

Usually I would just buy the venerable gold standard ViewSonic XG240R and be done with it, but they're currently £270+ in the UK, which is, too much.

So what is the pound for pound 1080p/144hz price:performance champion in early 2020?

I'm eyeing the (IPS!) AOC 24G2U at £179.99 and the LG 24GL650-B at £144.99

Have the G24U2. Very happy but sadly dead pixel.
Really good monitor though.

Thanks for the feedback, Stitch7.

Already had an LG 24GL600F and wasn't blown away.

I think I'll give the 24G2U a whirl.

I don't like the way it does strobed though. Motion doesn't feel clearer, response times cause a crosstalk.
