Is XG2431 the Best 240hz Monitor for Competitive Gaming

Post by Shallo » 26 Jan 2022, 00:24

Hello, I want to get a 240hz monitor and I found on Youtube the XG2431 is apparently like the best 240hz 1080p monitor, but I don't see any pros using it. I know that I shouldn't copy pro setups but it's like a reference to me. I see a lot of people using the AW2518Hf or XL2546K, but never the XG2431. Hopefully someone can help me with these concerns:

I don't know if the monitor is still better than all/most (including the examples I gave) 240hz 1080p monitors without strobing, as well as whether or not it's actually usable on high/any strobing settings because of the low brightness, and whether or not I should even use it. I don't know if there's bad input delay making it worth it for clearer motion.

I don't know if its input delay or whatever is worse because it's IPS compared to these other TN panels

I'm curious if anyone can tell a difference or feel a different effect from 23.8" and 24.5"

Would you guys say that the XG2431 is better than most most commonly used monitors for competitive games and I should buy it, or is it like the same thing?

For some reason it's hard for me to find this monitor, but is it only better because of the refresh rate? Also, no one can really stay on consistent 390 fps for fortnite.
