LG is once again trying its hand at a crossroads somewhere between gaming monitor, smart TV and OLED self-realization. The result is two new UltraGear models that present themselves with a curved posture, high speed and smart streaming expertise – for people for whom even high-end is still too normal. Two sizes, one inner life Let’s [...]
ASUS has unveiled two new monitors aimed specifically at competitive gamers and eSports enthusiasts. The ROG XG248Q5G-P, a 24.1-inch model with a Super TN panel and a maximum refresh rate of 610 Hz (via overclocking), is particularly striking. This places ASUS clearly in the extreme range, where response time and sharpness of movement take [...]
While industry giants such as LG, Samsung and ASUS are increasingly focusing on the premium segment with QD OLED technologies, AOC is continuing its strategy in the entry-level and mid-range segment – and with the new 25G4SXU and CU34G4Z models is presenting two screens that are explicitly aimed at e-sports enthusiasts. Anyone thinking of [...]
With the MAG 272UP X24, MSI is launching another display based on Samsung’s QD OLED technology on the Chinese market. It sounds high-end and looks that way on paper – but as always, the devil is in the detail. Because although 4K resolution is combined with a whopping 240 Hz refresh rate here, the lavish equipment is saved elsewhere [...]
What takes a long time will… at least finally be released. Acer has taken a surprisingly long time to catch up with the competition. While ASUS and MSI have been relying on Quantum Dot OLED panels (QD-OLED for short) for some time now in order to wrest a little brightness and color printing from the OLED principle, Acer is now also coming [...]
Yes, ASRock has now also arrived on the monitor market. The ASRock Phantom Gaming PG27FFX2A was sent to me by ASRock – with the request that I take a closer look at the monitor. The PG27FFX2A offers a 27 inch Full-HD (1920 x 1080p) IPS panel with 520 Hz refresh rate and 10 bit (8 FRC) color depth. This results in a pixel density of 81 ppi [...]
Today we have another affordable monitor from the Far East, the Titan Army P2710S. This is the big brother of the P2510S, which I have already presented to you. The P2710S comes with a 27-inch IPS panel and offers a resolution of 2560 x 1440p with a refresh rate of 240 Hz. The built-in panel has an RGB subpixel layout and offers 10 bits (8 2 FRC) [...]
Today we have something completely different to marvel at, namely the ASUS ProArt PA27JCV. This is a monitor that has its genes not in gaming – but in content creation. In other words, the focus today is more on color accuracy and not on response times or latency. This becomes clear when you look at the data of the installed panel. The [...]
GAMEMAX, previously better known as a supplier of affordable cases and power supply units, is now trying its hand at the high-end monitor market – and with a QD OLED panel, 4K resolution and 240 Hz. According to the manufacturer, the VISION GMX32UCDM is designed to compete with big names such as ASUS and MSI. Sounds like big ambitions, but [...]
Philips is expanding its 5000 series with two new models that focus on sustainability as well as modern productivity functions. The 24B2G5301 and 27B2G5601 models are designed to be more energy efficient and are partly made from recycled materials. Energy efficiency and environmental friendliness Both monitors come with environmentally [...]
Today is a premiere, because I’m testing the first AOC monitor – the AOC AGON Pro AG326UD. The AG326UD comes with a UHD 3840 x 2160p QD-OLED panel, which we are already familiar with. The AG326UD will therefore differ only slightly from its market competitors in many respects. The main difference is that the AG326UD only has a refresh [...]
CES 2025 is just around the corner and numerous companies will be presenting their latest technological products there. Samsung will also be taking part and has already announced its new monitors in advance. The focus will be on the first Odyssey OLED G6 and G8 monitors, which are set to impress with their innovative functions. Samsung has [...]
The ASUS ROG Swift PG27AQDP is the world’s first gaming monitor with a WQHD resolution (2560 x 1440p) and a refresh rate of 480 Hz. This power is generated by an LG OLED panel. In addition, this panel has even been given a new subpixel layout – RGWB. This should have an effect on text readability. In other words, the PG27AQDP could [...]
Corsair sent me the new 34-inch ultrawide monitor, of course with the request that I take a look at it. The Corsair Xeneon 34WQHD240-C QD-OLED, everything you need to know is in the name. Screen diagonal 34″, resolution WQHD 3440 x 1440p, refresh rate 240 Hz and the C = Curved. However, when I saw the price of 1,350 euros, all the batteries [...]
The company ViewSonic is probably well known to some, especially for its gaming monitors. ViewSonic is now planning to expand its portfolio and wants to launch a new gaming monitor on the market that is specially designed for users who attach great importance to a high refresh rate. Shaurya Tomer from Gadget360 wrote about this. A 4K OLED monitor [...]
Today we have another UHD monitor with a Samsung QD OLED panel, the MSI MPG321URX. The MPG321URX is the big brother of the MSI MAG321UPX. You read that right, there are two versions of this model, whose names are so similar that there is basically no risk of confusion. Yeah, right! I’ll explain the differences between the two monitors at the [...]
As most of you probably know, AMD Ryzen CPU owners in particular will benefit from Windows 11 24H2. Great performance improvements that 24H2 has miraculously unlocked. Over the last few weeks, I’ve had various software problems that have forced me to perform a completely new Windows installation. My old image with Windows 23H2 just [...]
The ASUS ROG Strix XG27AQDMG comes with a WOLED panel from LG, the special thing about this panel is that it has a glossy finish. Until now, LG OLED monitors were only available with a matte panel, so glossy fans should get their money’s worth today. Basically, the XG27AQDMG has inherited a lot from the PG27AQDM. If you place both monitors [...]
I’m going poaching for noname devices today and have bought the KC-KVM8201 8K KVM switch from the big river for the test systems. This is a useful device for users like me who want to control multiple computers with a single set of monitor, keyboard and mouse. This KVM (keyboard-video-mouse) switch supports resolutions up to 8K at 60Hz (ok [...]
