Stuck Between 240hz OLED or 360hz IPS
The people spamming OLED are completely wrong for your specific circumstance. The guy said he mainly plays competitive games. You’ll rarely find a pro playing at a tournament level using an OLED monitor and there are reasons for that (DyAc is a MAJOR one). They are all on 1080p 24 inch TN BenQ Zowie

New Monitor recommendation?
Most pro gaming leagues play on 24-25” 1080p 240Hz+. I believe RLCS uses the BenQ Zowie XL2566X+. It’s 400 Hz which is a little overkill for non-pros so I reckon a nice 240Hz would be fine, also cheaper

Pulsar has less crosstalk and a clearer image at nearly half the fps
Deleted my comment but I figured it out. Having my second monitor plugged in causes the refresh rate to drop to 240hz on the main one for some reason. Never experienced that before. So I'm leaving it disconnected until I figure it out. But I'm loving this monitor! What an improvement over the XL2546

Nvidia Pulsar vs zowie 600hz
I had the XL2546k for years (240 with DyAc+). Then I tried the new XL2586X+ and returned it. I stayed above the refresh rate FPS wise. Then I decided to try the Asus model of these new G Sync Pulsar monitors and actually felt a massive difference right away. The few review videos online don't do it

Monitor Upgrade Worth it?
I have used XL2546K for 2 years, then went to 2566K for a year and half, and now I’ve been using the 2566X+ for over a year. For me I think the biggest difference is the 2nd generation panel on the X+ series. Going from 240hz to 360hz and 400hz is noticeable, but not significant. However the color p

Question about zowie monitors
I used many monitors including high end IPS, 360hz oleds, other TNs etc and the zowie just feels better. While i do use dyac as it’s just that much better, even if i turn off dyac it’s still way smoother than my IPS monitors which felt blurry at the same Hz. Compared to the oled motion clarity is ju

AOC just launched 3 new high refresh rate gaming monitors
You don't understand nothing hahaha I play cs2 on high level, not pro but in top ranking. Why the q25g4sr is good for me ? Because its can handle cs2 on 1080p or event on 4:3 800/600 for most of cs2 players, so i have my high refresh rate when i want to play cs2, and my 9800x3d can easily handle thi

get Zowie or stay at 27 oled?
nah the difference is definitely noticeable, I went from a 165hz laptop screen to a xl2546k and it felt 10x better. but yes monitor is terrible for everything else, OLED is way better for that
