Out of Stock, so what are my options?

GavJL · 14 Jun 2020 at 20:28

Was recently suggested i pick up a https://www.overclockers.co.uk/sams...-gaming-widescreen-led-monitor-mo-23m-sa.html to go along with my new PC build but unfortunately the model is now out of stock with no restock date marked.

What would people suggest as a match for this in the same price range?

I'm also looking a touch higher but im torn, i can't quite work out which of these two is better.

no problem at all...taken the plunge on the 32" myself...was unsure as so many say bad things about VA panels but the samsung tv i use just now is VA and i am very happy with it and only play modern warfare..liked the sound of 240Hz though plus the curve

Now its just a 2.5 week wait hopefully

Thanks for the link, I'm considering the 32" - I would consider 27" too small for a curved screen - what are your thoughts?

Can't say as never had a curved screen before.

Presently on a 40" and have a flat 27" 60hz so was a no brainer which I wanted to get....

I take it the 40" is curved - correct?

You don't think you'll find the 32" Samsung Odyssey a bit small after the 40" Samsung TV?

Yes but I can live with the trade off to get 240hz and that curve

plus will be keeping the 40" on desk too so can easily alternate

Sounds like a plan

I've got a 1080p Sony 40" TV I use with my Media-PC and as a TV it is good, but close up as a PC monitor, it's actually really poor.

I'm thinking of going with this one as it seems to have good reviews and there's a decent offer on at the minute.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

1 x LG 27GL850-B 27" 2560x1440 NANO IPS 144Hz 1ms FreeSync/G-Sync Compatible Widescreen LED Gaming Monit= £379.99

I'm on an old HP Pavilion 23xi atm so going up to a 27" will be a boost for me. In the space i have i think a 32" would have been too much.
