Hi, New here, just purchased this monitor and would like to know if theres a guide on how to configure monitor + gpu for the best results?
I admit with purexp on it is a bit dim and hard to see.
currently i am vsync off + purexp + 240hz and no limitations in RTSS.
What is recommended for best motion clarity results?
Motion Priority PureXP+
PureXP + 120Hz + VSYNC ON*
Latency Priority PureXP+
PureXP + 240Hz + VSYNC OFF
Also Increase mouse DPI to at least 1600dpi minimum to improve PureXP, make sure mousepad is clean and ultrasmooth, make sure mouse feet is clean. The extra DPI makes strobing smoother and more jitter-free. If your mouse does bad job at 1600dpi buy a new mouse that does 1600dpi properly. If you have no mousepad, buy an esports mousepad. This will fix your strobe-amplified mouse microstuttering.
I prefer motion priority PureXP because it just looks like a Sony FW900 CRT to my eyes. During solo gaming of fast-motion gaming, I prefer the blissful nirvana motion over a smidge of extra input lag. Refresh rate headroom and fps=Hz makes strobing more enjoyable. Give it a temporary test.
There is better motion clarity for PureXP+ at 100Hz and 120Hz (though 144Hz still looks reasonably good). There's more jitteriness and strobe crosstalk at 240Hz. However, 240Hz PureXP+ is indeed lower latency if that's your priority. But you asked about motion.
The new firmware will provide brighter PureXP options so you can choose your brightness versus clarity tradeoff. However, bear in mind, the new upcoming firmware (delayed by COVID-19 Coronavirus, by CNY), many scaler vendors in China had to temporarily shut down due to COVID-19 Coronavirus so that delayed work for a lot of monitor manufacturers, including many in Taiwan who often needs to work with Mainland China vendors. I'm just as excited to see the new firmware come out already, we have to hang in there until this all clears up.
*Note: Lower latency versions of VSYNC ON can be used, such as RTSS Scanline Sync or Low-Lag VSYNC HOWTO.
**Note2: We have noticed a 120Hz Custom Resolution with Large Vertical Totals (double-up the VT at 120Hz) actually slightly reduces lag of VSYNC ON during 120Hz PureXP+ even if there's little to no difference in strobe crosstalk. This is the Quick Frame Transport effect
