    Best Reviewed A-MVA Monitor Thread: Read the 1st Post

    I may be wrong, but as far as my experience goes from articles and reviews I've read, TV's have always had significant input lag compared to the PC monitors. Whether thats an inherited shortcoming of the OLED technology or just bcs the LG was a TV I can only speculate. But eventho it still...

    Hey I got the Samsung e370 PLS and wanted to tell you that if anyone is interested in more info on it I'll update my thread whenever I've done some more testing on it in the coming months. :p First impressions with the Iiyasma are really night and day for me. There's maybe slight faint of...

    Choosing a good gaming/overall PLS/IPS

    I got my monitor, so far haven't done any tests on it, but it looks pretty good and I think I'll keep it. :D Will update the thread after I have done more tests on it. :P

    Choosing a good gaming/overall PLS/IPS

    I dunno rly, but from what I saw after the Iiyama I had for a week, which had blue gamma shift in the lagom test, it also was visibly blueish in general. The iiyama logo that shows when you turn on the monitor which was supposed to be on white background, looked rather blueish as well. So can't...

    Choosing a good gaming/overall PLS/IPS

    So far I've been hearing that PLS are better for gaming and IPS are generally slightly better with color accuracy. Imo I doubt there really is much of a noticeable difference. That Samsung also does 75 hz and has FreeSync. As for whether an LG is better than a Samsung, would be easier with...

    Choosing a good gaming/overall PLS/IPS

    The Predator have good promises and sounds cool, if you're been a kid and watched the original movie what is my case it will have something on top of that to associate with, but other than the high price it also has other drawbacks like coronas/severe overshoot. Other than that I don't really...

    Choosing a good gaming/overall PLS/IPS

    I found another review, in rus and de. Overall it's very positive. The only part I couldn't understand is this line, but I am assumiong they meant "a little too warm". Тест и обзор: Samsung S27E370D – 27-дюймовый монитор с функцией зарядки смартфона It provides very good color quality...

    First gaming benchmarks up

    DX12 is shit atm still. All cards does worse than in DX11 in 99.99% of the tests of games that "supports" both DX12 and DX11. Besides, Vulkan. ;) DX12 is only available in Win10 and I have no plans ever installing that shit. I'd rather go to Linux, but either way I wouldn't have to as...

    First gaming benchmarks up

    The temps are not surprising, have you seen what cooler the stock cards use? :P There are a few tests with some custom cooling mods and temps are more than pleasing, but what bothers me is the power draw. Don't confuse that with the TDP, that's for temps. How fast Radeon RX 480 can be? |...

    To describe it as accurately as I can, it's akin to what a reflective stripe (on reflective vests) looks like, sorta, but it's of course not as pronounced as a real reflective stripe. It's noticeable on dark hues and mostly dark greyish colors. Describing it as a "reflective stripe" is the most...

    Depends whether it has strong AG coating. Most ppl wouldn't even look or notice it. Or at least that is what the over impression/assumption is. There may be a bigger number in general that will notice it and be bothered about it, but in most cases ppl won't bother with writing or complaining...

    Polaris it is. :) I may go blast some Megadeth to celebrate it later. ;) Now I am left with choosing a proper display for it.

    It would seem that TN has the least severity concerning this "Reflective Stripe" issue then? :P I still haven't ordered or completely decided on any panel so I still have time to change my mind. However the only TN panel worth switching instead of PLS/IPS would be a BenQ XL and ZL (or wtfever...

    It wasn't a typical lcd sparkle effect or anything like that, nor the mirror effect from the semi-glossy coating, which I have to admit bothered me initially as it was pretty noticeable, but I've adapt to it pretty quickly and it stopped bothering me. But that was a different thing, even if the...

    Choosing a good gaming/overall PLS/IPS

    More or less so, however there's differences between brands when it comes to stuff like coating f.e. Most notably AH-IPS vs AD-PLS. I generally prefer as least matte as possible, or rather stuff close to semi-glossy. Nippon Electric Glass would be best, but as far as I am aware there isn't any...
