Just got a 2411z some questions.

Hi guys,

So I bought the benQ 2411z this friday and I'm still messing around with the settings. I'm still unsure if I want 120hz + blur reduction or 144hz.

I mainly play CSGO, on 1280x960 4;3 stretched. When I'm using blur reduction and 120hz do I need to make a custom res for the 1280x960 res? (don't suggest I change my res please cause I wont :<).
Also if theres any more of you csgo players what do you prefer 144hz or 120hz with no blur?

Would be great if someone in a similar situation could give some insight.

edit: Also I used 500hz polling rate if that makes any difference

XDDDDD
These forums are getting flooded by 4:3 stretched resolution people.

Yes. If you have a Nvidia GPU it's really easy. Are you using the 1350VT/1500VT trick? If not, you should.

Also if theres any more of you csgo players what do you prefer 144hz or 120hz with no blur?

Neither of them . I play at 125Hz with blur reduction. I value motion clarity over everything. Well, vsync would look smoother, but for this game I prefer vsync off (less input lag).

I use the 1350VT trick, I tried to use the 1500/1502VT it works when I test the setting but then it reverts to 1350VT not sure why, I have NVIDIA gtx 760. (2.0 ms persistence 0 crosstalk)

edit: I just tried the 1500VT one should it be 1500 or 1502? but It's working now. Also if I decide to use 144hz instead do I still have to make a custom resolution for 1280x960 and any VT tweaks?

They are almost the same. 1502VT is the maximum. If 1500VT looks fine, don't change it. Sometimes, changing the VT a bit can cause/fix some visual "waves" going up or down in the monitor.

Also if I decide to use 144hz instead do I still have to make a custom resolution for 1280x960 and any VT tweaks?

1280x960 will work normally at 144Hz. You don't need to make a custom resolution for it, because it appears in the list of non custom resolutions.

And you can't make any meaningful VT tweak at 144Hz. Any little change can lead to an out of range error.

Ah I see thanks for explaining, what about persistence is there like a general setting that is good or do you just have to play around with it. Mine is @ 2.0ms and 0 crosstalk.

Guys, don't use 1280x960 on any 1920x1080 monitor. These questions really need to stop.
IF you were used to CRT 4:3 resolutions from the CS 1.6/CSS days, then try this:

Use 1440x1080, so you get a properly 1:1 screen size without vertical bars or image scaling or aspect ratios.
It matches the size of your panel. Why not get a perfect 1:1 pixel mapped screen (with horizontal bars and NO vertical bars) instead of having to deal with either a stretched screen, 1280x960 interpolated fullscreen to 1920x1080 or a 'centered' 1280x960 with 1:1 but with vertical bars?

for the 1440p monitors, do the math and find the equivalent 4:3 for this one and make a custom detailed resolution for that too.
