Im building a new computer and I need a monitor to go with it.
Id like it to be at least 1080p and at least 24 inches. Ill be using a GTX 770 to run it. Id like to spend around 250 to 300. This will be for gaming and primarily FPS games....so it needs to be at least reasonably fast, though Im willing to give up some speed for the better color quality you get from IPS.
Ive seen these Korean specials running around with fantastic panels but from reading reviews there are significant issues with them. One big one is contrast stability....either they use a digital method to reduce the brightness which in turn kills the contrast ratio or the use a very low frequency PWM, nearly 100 hz lower than average which will definitely flicker.
I don't really need to run my games in 1440p, sure they would run and it may be nice, but at 1080 I will get much better performance. Yes the 1440 would be great for surfing and reading, but this will mainly be for gaming.
A 1080p 27 inch seems to be the consensus that that's too big for 1080p and you will see pixels.
So with that in mind whats a good 24 inch ,IPS or PLS, that's fast, for an IPS, and under 250 or so?
Or convince me that Im not going to notice those contrast issues with the Koreans....
