AMD : FreeSync Monitors Shipping in December – Will Cost $100 Less Than Nvidia G-Sync

Come on children, play nice

The simplest solution would be not to jump in creating a fuss when there wasn't one instead of blaming others...

No, I have an interest in Freesync and will enjoy having an input. You pulled up G-Sync and CS:GO, so don't have a dig at me when I say "turn off G-Sync" for that game and whilst we are here, what wi you be telling 4K freesync gamers to do when the frames are above 60? That is the refresh rate of that monitor.

60hz vs 144hz
That is a good question, if games give High input lag when maxing out Gsync 144hz - 144fps

Whats happens when you max out 60fps on 60hz... because that would then = 60hz Vsync = input lag without the frame stutter..

Limit fps to 60 turn off vsync get less tearing with next to no input lag (which I don't notice anyway)

If this was available on current monitors with a f/w update then amd would have a winner, The fact you have to buy a monitor for it to work puts me off unless there is a 4k 144hz monitor available for it.

TFWT, buy an old CRT and be done with it.

What about the guys who sitting waiting for there next monitor upgrade? "Me"

4k 144hz now that's extreme future proofing..

 

[thokkiano]

That's a good point for AMD

Hey I am still on 60hz and happy so what do i know

I know if I had a 120/144 hz monitor I would be even less bothered unless like I said there was some super monitor at a reasonable price, like the rog swift features and res for 300 pounds.

Am in need to move away from 1080p... Badly

Here a question guys is the big difference between 1080p and 1440p like well worth upgrade?

Yeah to me it was, Quite a bog difference visualy I found!

In your shoes I would wait for a 1440p 120/144hz freesync monitor and go for it!

 

[jh30uk]

You got a lot of replies to that last time, remember the images I showed you of a 27" etc as you said it was too big (Displaywars)

4K is not doable for most games today on 1 GPU and even 2 GPU's and will only be worst for newer games if like example Crysis 4 or next Metro games.

Yes 1440p is nicer looking than 1080p as its smaller pixels, you can even see this once you have one on YT watching the 4k videos at the 1440p setting (and YT is compressed crap).

I'm desperate to move off this XL2411T and get some real colours again. Only thing is I won't ever buy another TN and I need 120hz.

 

[jh30uk]

I will never believe any BS hype about "higher quality TN" again after Rog Swift, I will try again once a Sharp VA type panel arrives like in the Eizo, in fact there is talk of one in the monitors section.

 

[shankly1985]

I hoping 1440p 24" 144hz or higher.. Dont think I would like to go above 1440p for performance reasons.. I dont want 3 or 4 GPUs.

 

[jh30uk]

Or 60HZ (some are 30HZ).

You will not see an 24" LCD" with 1440p AFAIK, it would be hard on eyes and no matter what you read all Windows so far are crap at scaling (and not all things even scale on desktop etc) but Win 10 promises to improve this but the builds so far are same as before.

I found 27" 1440p like many here too small outside games.

If I tried to run this desktop at 2304x1440p on this monitor I would struggle as its CRT tiny round pixels not large square pixels like LCD, so desktop in 1680x1050.

Its a nice spot to be in, 1440 over 27" is a nice fit, everything looks sharp and you notice the extra real estate and image quality more then you'll notice the performance hit.

I'm currently holding fire before upgrading my 22" 1050p screen. I'm just hoping that i cant get a 27" 1440p FreeSync monitor for £350 or less.

It helps if you make the right adjustments instead of just looking at it out of the box and sending it back

Yeah my BenQ out the box was horrible.. After calibration and better Profiles I am very happy with the colour and blacks.

It helps if you aren't deluded.
