1080p 120hz monitor for Xbox Series X

BEN_UK · 22 Nov 2020 at 23:28

Hello,

I'm after a 1080p 120hz monitor for my Series X

Tried Warzone at 1080p 120hz on my 65" C8 down stairs and now want it on a monitor upstairs.

Any recommendations ?

1080p
24" or 27"
120hz support
Free sync

Thanks Ben

Will do hopefully tomorrow.

Gotta sell my BenQ 4K/60Hz screen now.

I've learnt frame rate over resolution anyday!

Few days with the EX2710 very happy with it for £230

Works perfect with the Xbox Series X, 120hz and VRR

Lovely smooth experience with Warzone.

Much happier with 1080p 120hz rather than 4k 60hz

I'll make the jump to 4K 120hz When there's a good selection.

Or when there is a graphics card/console in the world than can hit 4k/120Hz

Yeah I've been happy with it.

Only used it for Xbox Series X and warzone but does a good job 120fps and VRR support nice smooth experience.

You only need HDMI 2.0 for 1080p 120hz

HDMI 2.1 is for 4k at 120hz

Whats the experience like at 1080p 120hz?

Only games I've played are cold war and warzone and very happy with the experience.

Variable refresh rate also helps a lot and is a must have feature for me.
