I have 2 monitors, and the second is a LG w2043s (a little old) 1600x900, and I decided to move it as 20 cms and when I turn on my PC, it only shows 1024x768. an important detail is that I use a VGA adapter for DisplayPort, and it worked perfectly all month, but maybe it's the problem. I want to...
So, I have a crappy 20 inch hooked up to my second PC. I am looking for a new monitor (general usage, potentially gaming but I'm not a hardcore gamer with a picky eye) and I figure the deals now (Black Friday + Cyber Monday) mean now is the time to buy. What I'm looking for: 24" or bigger...
Hi, I have a budget of ~$1,000 for my monitor setup. I'm debating between the Dell AW 34" Ultrawide or a dual 27" monitor setup. I plan on using these for photo/video editing and gaming on the side. The allure of the AW 34" is its ability to reproduce color fairly accurately while offering a...

So I've been trying to sort this for a while now.
I have two displays, an acer x34P and an elgato 4k60 pro capture card.
the x34p connected via displayport and the 4k60 pro via hdmi 2.0. (I have a dual-PC setup and am not using passthrough)
When I "Clone" the displays, the display that is set...
Hello
I am a lawyer who spends more time than I care to admit to staring at documents on a screen. All I really use my display for is word documents text PDFs. I am looking to purchase a screen that is 27-32 inches (still narrowing that range down), and would be very grateful for your...

Hey Gents,
Just letting you guys know I picked up this bad boy due to my failing eyesight to replace my AOC AGON 35QCX 200hz.
Gotta say once properly set up it has not skipped a beat.

Ah... another year, another monitor with yet another bug crawling inside.
Last year my trusty IIyama xb2483hsu-b2 got a visitor:
And this year, few months old HP 27ea got a little asshole roommate.
I blame the summer and not enough of a tight seal on a matrix of these monitors. But mostly...

Ken Addison over at PC Perspective dove into ASUS' new ROG Swift PG27UQ, a 27", 4k, 144Hz, G-SYNC, HDR monitor. The 27" IPS screen can throw out 1000 nits of brightness, but only if you're willing to throw down $2,000. Check out the review here.
It's a monitor.... with 3GB of DDR4-2400. What...
ACER has announced 49" and 55" IPS 4K HDR monitors to be released on June 28, 2018 and June 21, 2018 respectively in Japan. Pricing isn't known on these yet. The 49" EB490QKbmiiipfx and 55" EB550Kbmiiipx displays share similar specs other than size. The HDR10 implementation on these monitors...
I also had this problem under windows 7 on the same machine and it persisted through an upgrade to Win10. The monitor is set to turn off in 10 minutes, although the time doesnt matter, and sleep is set to never yet the monitor never turns off. I have tried powercfg /requests which comes up...
Hello,
Would you please suggest an IPS monitor for work, web and occasional photo editing next to my 1080p (16:9) gaming monitor?
I am used to from my work to 24'' 1080p (16:10) however I'm willing to try the 27'' 1440p. I'm just not sure if it's worth it to my gaming monitor.
I'm now...
Sooooo in unpredictable times throughout the night while im gaming (mainly FPS) my ping will spike from around 50ms to almost 2.5 seconds. The spikes resemble times when I'm gaming and say steam decides to download an update and blows up my bandwidth. (no, the above situations is not steam...
I currently use a 27" Samsung C27F591, which is a SPVA PC monitor with around a 3000:1 static contrast ratio. I was looking for an upgrade, but I hate IPS glow and the low contrast of IPS panels. Do the new Nano IPS monitors from LG still exhibit IPS Glow and a low static contrast ratio? I...
When I turn on the monitor after it has been off for a while (1hr+) it has alternating levels of bright/dim in vertical bands. They disappear after the monitor has been on for some minutes (~5-10). The effect is more apparent at lower framerates (such as HotS being capped at 60 fps on title...
Hello!
I'm quite curious which is the current best 32" 4K monitor.
I need something that is at least 350 cd/m2 bright since something that is 300cd/m2 won't work in my current work conditions, being too dim (LOTS OF LIGHT IN My ROOM).
High contrast, good colors and everything else, the...

Seems that this will fix a lot of problems moving forward and not just monitor based.
I'm going through a mixed time in my life at the moment (great professionally, not so great personally / breakup with my girl), so I figure I'll distract myself with some new shiny tech bits.
I was originally going to buy a new TV for my living room but YouTube video heads have said to wait...
I was in the market for a new monitor and I will say the sheer quality of monitors that support G-Sync now is insane.. I ended up wanting to get the Asus ROG Swift PG279Q (absolutely amazing gaming monitor) and all I could think of is it really would be nice to its customers if AMD/ATi would...
I have had a issue with all 4K monitors that I owned and it's driving me a bit nuts so I wanted to see if somebody has a solution.
When I cold boot the PC the monitor shows picture during POST so I can enter the BIOS or see the boot menu.
But 99% of the time when I restart PC the monitor does...
Philips BDM4037UW and Samsung UN40KU6500 (UE40KU6100) seem to be a good choice for a large curved (3000R) 4K PC monitor. Unfortunately KU6500 (KU6300 in non-curved version) uses PWM backlight dimming, though BDM4037UW has some dramatic pixel response time issues.
Which do you consider better...
Hi. I'm planning to buy UE40KU6100 TV (which is a curved version of UE40KU6000 which is european name for UN40KU6300) to work and movies. I used it for a short time and I know it's great but I'm little concerned about flickering. On Rtings they say that this TV doesn't flicker at 50-100%...

As we reported on last month, a new version of the HDMI standard is soon upon us. Many of you know that I use a large 4K TV as my primary monitor on my desktop. As fantastic as this solution has been, I've always wondered what if. What if I could have higher refresh rates than 60hz, or what...

Hi, this is my first forum post. After reading the forums about using the UN40KU6300 as a PC monitor, I decided to give it a go and I am very happy with the experience, however the main thing that has been bothering me is the rather aggressive AG coat on this TV, so I have decided I want to...
Hi everyone.
It seems to be that there's quite a few folks here with more in depth knowledge than I can find form typical reviews, so I thought you might be able to help me:
