Weekend Open Forum: What kind of monitor do you use?

[captaincranky]

Well true, thats why I only run 3 displays now, I was just trying out a eyefinity4 display setup with said 4KTV display

So you knew that would be a fail even before you did it?

Dell Ultrasharp U2515H IPS 2560x1440. Best monitor I've ever owned.

Would that rig allow you to feed entertainment content to the TV alone?

'Cause I see a great HTPC opportunity, if you'd be willing to "suffer" with only the 3 Dell (?) on the desktop?

ASUS ROG SWIFT PG278Q

Dual monitor setup, main screen is a 30" Apple Cinema Display 2560x1600, secondary Acer B273HU 2048x1152

I'm using two Asus MX27AQ monitors (one for each desktop). At 27 inches and 1440p it's perfect.

Still using my 60" Sharp Aquos 1080p TV as my monitor. It works for now, but am waiting for the 1080Ti to be released, then I'll get those in SLi and a 70" 4k as replacement.

I just transitioned to a BenQ GW2765HT 27" 1440p monitor from 1080p and I LOVE it. I'll never go back to 1080p.

I second that. Just picked up the same monitor last month. My desk only has room for a single monitor so I went with this one. Use it mainly for Lightroom and some modest gaming. Was trying hard to stay under $300, and this was the best I could find near that price point. It replaced a frozen Acer K272HULbmiidp that I had purchased refurbished.

Samsung UHD TV 6500 @3840x2160 60hz with a Zotac Amp! Edition Geforce 1080.

I had an unknown chinese tv 22" 1920x1080 as my monitor. It served me well for about 2 yeras and than it died. After that I bought a Phillips 21,5" 1920x1080 to repace it. It was cheap and has dvi out. No problems so far and the picture is nice with my amd HD 7770. Its still my main monitor.

Acer 23.8" 1080P IPS with 4ms. Gorgeous and fast. I don't need larger and don't think I'd notice most resolution. Only cost $109 over a year ago too.

Dell Ultrasharp monitors, both at work and at home.
U2415 at work, full HD, great for those spreadsheets.
U2515H at home, great for gaming in 1440p

Love the integrated USB hub, it's great for managing the cables for the mouse, KB.

 

[Jahara21]

Acer Predator X34.

I have this too, 34" 3440 x 1440, running mine at 100 hz with g-sync. It looks amazing, I just hate the 'Predator' tramp stamp of a logo on the front.

I have one of these too, and I totally agree. Wish the logo was replaceable. Other than that, it is a fantastic screen.

 

[Capaill]

Iiyama ProLite XB2779QS - 27" 2560 x 1440 IPS monitor at 60Hz. A lovely size for gaming on and the extra resolution (if you're coming from 1080p or lower) is great for when required to do work.

 

[anselhelm]

Still on the same Dell 2407WFP (A04 revision I think) I've been using since around 2007. It's 24" and has a native resolution of 1920 x 1200 (1200P).

Until there are HDR, IPS monitors at 1440P or 1600P with Freesync in roughly the same size class, or unless my monitor suddenly gives out, I have no intention of replacing it.

 

[nzdave]

Have had a Philips 40" 4k monitor for a few months now driven by a GTX1080 and love it.

 

[Jaxonb]

Asus VK278Q 1080p. It's proved to be a great and reliable monitor over the years. But now I want more resolution and am going for an ultrawide 34" curved monitor. Haven't decided which one yet.
