What is your take on 1080p vs 1440p at 27-inches debate? (Also, I failed to mention in the video, both monitors were set to 60Hz, even though they can both go higher)
Is console gaming on a 1440p monitor good or bad? Check out this video: ruclips.net/video/5j_PpF8NUqk/видео.html
1080p if you're on a budget, 1440p if you have money to spend
Would a Ryzen 5 laptop be enough for 1440p for mixed use? Or 1080?
@@kyle_vr i have a ryzen 5 2600 CPU in my pc, and I average 200 fps in apex legends with medium settings
@@Ruinz9891 Desktop (with also a dedicated GPU) or a laptop?
@@kyle_vr desktop, a ryzen 5 will be fine for 1080p, 1440p and you'll be getting pretty low fps
It's kinda funny how in the "text is razor-sharp in 1440p", in the examples shown, the text looks literally exactly the same down to a pixel, because (as is evident with the Premiere example), you've left the 1440p monitor at 100% scaling in Windows, so the effect is completely lost when you compare them like this at the same pixel size.
I'm a noob at this. So you need 125% scaling for the real effect?
@@vigilant545 Depends on what you consider the real effect. Going from 1080p to 1440p can have two outcomes (provided you compare the same size displays, otherwise it obviously gets more complicated).
If you leave the scaling at 100%, more stuff will fit on your screen, because everything will be smaller (since there's more pixels, but 1 "desktop/virtual" pixel is still 1 pixel large, so to speak). So text will not look any sharper (and especially not when you compare it pixel to pixel like it's done in this video, since it's literally identical in that way), not really, but you'll have more screen real estate available and fit more text on the screen.
If you set the scaling to let's say 125%, roughly the same amount of stuff will fit on your screen (because your desktop will effectively be "zoomed in" 25%). So text will look smoother and sharper, because to get the same size of text, there's now more pixels to draw the letters/curves with. At the same time, bitmap images/icons will look slightly worse and blurred, with less detail, because they will effectively get blown up and since they're bitmaps, they can't be enlarged easily without quality loss.
Hope I'm not making it more confusing ;)
@@Case_ Thanks, makes sense!
Thanks man appreciate the help. I was super confused because could see literally 0 difference lol
I couldn't agree more. Text in the examples look exactly the same. There is nothing "razor-sharp" about the 1440p example.
Honestly, i'm coming from a Dell S2817q (4K TN 60hz 28 inches) to an Alienware AW2720HF (1080p 240hz 27 inches) and i stand about 60-70 cm from the monitor, the difference is slightly sharp and it doesn't even bother me, but after reading a lot of "27 inch is too much for 1080p" i've found this video and totally agreed with it. Of course there is a HUGE difference if you stand really close to your monitor, but if you stay relatively far like me you will be fine. I changed the monitors to play some games like Valorant, CS:GO and Fortnite. The difference in the FPS in those games are pretty much the same, since any calculator can run those (except for Fortnite, that i've gained around 80 FPS).
I used a 21 inch 1440x900 TN 60hz monitor from 2006 to 2014 that's when i made the jump to a 24 inch 1080p 60hz IPS display and i was blown away. I've used that monitor between 2014 and 2019, i kept the resolution at 1080p and jumped to 144hz, but the display was VA and curved, though i was impressed by the smoothness and fluidity of the monitor i missed the IPS color quality. A few days ago i upgraded to a 27 inch 1440p 170hz IPS display and i am super happy with this new monitor (the new Gigabyte M27Q), i have a ryzen 5 3600, 16gb ddr4 RAM and a GTX 1080 that still performs really well at 1440p.
This video just sealed the deal for me. I was just confused about this. I mostly use for work stuff which you covered briefly but precisely. I will go for a 24 inch 1080p, since my usage will be mostly doc and remote connection work because of the wfh scenario presently. I tried to use the a bigger screen for this purpose and my eyes strained like hell with the pixels being seen at close sitting range. Cheers man.
Glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching!
I had the same doubt for choosing between 1080p 24" or 27" monitor as i do the same wfh and mostly use for work not related to game or video..so it was nice that you explained well..thanks
It's a totally personal opinion for everyone. I moved from 22" 1080p to 27" 1440p and my workflow is better than ever.
Docs, Excel sheets, autocad, Solidworks and my free time is gaming
I subscribed because you have charisma while explaining stuff and not just someone pretending to know something when in reality you don't. Thank you for bringing us this video.
You have gained karma
I feel like it defeats the purpose if you have to scale text because pixel density makes it smaller. It's like increasing the distance to the monitor, so I would prefer to just sit farther back and have more room on my desk (by putting to monitor further from me).
Awesome! Very helpful & informative! please send more!!
Thank you! Will do!
Not the video we deserved, but the video we needed.
Thanks for this video bro,you helped people a lot by doing this detailed comparison!
Cant find more the. 2-3 videos plus your this one on youtube doing this review.
So i put 👍 on this video,you helped me to go for 1080p 27 inch. I can ez play games with RX 580 60fps with Freesync enabled.
See ya in the next one!
Excellent video, thanks for uploading it.
Here's what I'm looking for... Thanks for this great video...
Glad it was helpful!
dam this was super helpful for me, thanks for the video
Thank you for the video! We're trying to decide between 1080p (69 ppi ) or 1440p (92 ppi ) for 32" monitors on a triple setup. It will only be used for a racing simulator with view distance of 24" approximately. The GPU is an Nvidia RTX 2080Ti. Future proof is important so if some sims can't run 1440p x 3 then we don't mind reducing to 1080p on the 1440p monitors. In order to reduce costs the 32" will be IPS, FreeSync, 75Hz, 4ms. Since fps won't be able to get much higher than 75 fps so 75Hz doesn't bother us too much and will only be used a couple of hours a day and more on the weekends. Do you think the 1440p 32" based on our setup is the better choice?
Just upgraded to a BenQ EW 2780 from a 22" 1080p Dell and for general purpose usage, the reduced ppi does not bother me AT ALL.
My eyes are definitely not the best, maybe that's the reason why I don't see the difference/doesn't bother me.
But the massive jump in the screen space is absolutely breathtaking.
For gaming, net surfing, reading and movies, I have no issues with 27"(1080p) screens.
Thanks for the sharing. I consider to buy 1080 too
Thank you so much for sharing your opinion
I bought a 1080p 27" and i was worried but yeah i suffer from astigmatism so i think it's cool
@@nghtwanderr Honestly the one time when it comes in handy. Everything looks blurry so 1080p looks fine.
@@nghtwanderr Do you feel pixelation? How far are you sitting?
I'm currently in the process of building my new Gaming/Workstation PC, complete setup in fact. I needed a monitor which is suitable for all kinds of work. When I started searching I came to know about different kinds of panels - TN, VA and IPS which made things too confusing, though after a while I was convinced I want an IPS but in my region there were very less options in 1080p IPS.
Then I stumbled upon BenQ EX2780Q and I was intrigued! It was significantly more expensive than a 1080p but I knew it was worth it. It also has great sounding speakers something I wanted in my monitor. I don't regret spending money on this simple, elegant feature-rich beauty.
For now I'm using it with my notebook as I'm waiting on the new graphics card. My notebook has a 2GB Nvidia mobile GPU so I don't think pixel sharpness at 1440p is as good as it should be. I'm sure I'll get the best experience on my new Gaming PC. Thanks for this video, glad I made a good choice. One thing I'd like to ask is the monitor shows 4K resolution too even though it is a 1440p panel. I googled it and it turns out that some companies use 4K panels in their 1440p monitors as they're cheaper to manufacture. Then they lock the 4K resolution on the firmware which means 1440p here is a downscale.
Did you notice any irregularity at 1440p on your monitor compared to a native 1440p?
which one should we buy 32 inch (1440p) or 27 inch (1440p). because PPI of 32 inch 1140p is same as 24 inch (1080p)
My monitor is a BenQ. It's a 24" , GL2450, 1080. It's not perfect, but it does, though I can see myself upgrading it in a year or two time. So thank you for the info. :)
Awesome! I still have an older BenQ monitor I purchased 6-7 years ago and it still works flawlessly.
I like you explaination so thoughtful
Bro would you choose 24" 1080p screen or a 27" 1080p for text based work if the specs are similar and prices are only about 15--20% different and you're on a budget?
I currently have a 27in 1440p 144hz monitor and for me the benefit of high refresh rates paired with high frames is more than the ppi so I am considering replacing it with a 1080p model. The density is not very noticeable in games and I’m tired of needing ever more increasingly expensive gpus to drive 1440p especially with RT or some of these new and unoptimized games.
Could you just set down the in game resolution to 1080p?
@@user-lr6hw4dq4t Why would you do that if theres dlss thats far better than lowering resolution?
Ive gotten very used to the 1080p and dont notice it unless I actually look for individual pixels. I sit about 28 inches away from my monitor so I dont notice. And when youre watching movies, videos, or playing games, you wont notice at all.
You wont notice till you play on a friends pc and realize that 1440p is just... better. Ive been gaming 1080 24" for years but i played warzone on a buddies 1440p 27 inch and it was just better
@@user-nb8yt2il2r ok but it’s not like 1080p is extremely fucking horrible
Many thanks for the excellent practical advice. Since Apple finally offered an upgrade worth the cost, I'm about to update my 2012 Mac mini with one of the new Mac mini M2 Pros. It makes sense to replace one of my two displays and I'd like that to be a 27". In my case being post-forty, while sharp text is a plus, my vision is no longer sharp. Even the sharpest text gets blurred. I need both larger and sharper. I wonder if I need to go with a low-end 4K.
Wich one do you bought? I ordert my macmini and im not sure wich monitor is the best for me. I used it primarily for musicproduction
How do you feel about the Samsung LC27F591 for CAD, editing and basic school functions? I will not be gaming.
Good video, you help me a lot
Good evening sir, nice video. Loved it. Here's my question:
I will do casual gaming and video editing and productivity for youtube but nothing professional. I am including a 1440p 144hz monitor from Acer but I am compromising on my CPU. I can get a 3900X if I get a 1080p 144hz 24 inch monitor but I will have to stick with a 3700X if I go for a 1440p 144hz. Is the compromise worth it? I think more workspace on 1440p is good but I also think if I can get going on a 1080p. I mean I just want to know how is video editing on 1080p 24inch? Is the workspace too crammed? And please answer on behalf of 1080p. Don't answer in comparison with 1440p because I just want some kind of assurance that I would be fine with 1 1080p 144hz even for productivity.
Great videos dude!
Glad you like them!
Luffy the ghef
Little bit late to the party but would you say that 1440p 32 inch monitor is good middle ground? Just wondering what monitor to get next, still torn between 1440p 27 inch and 1440p 32 inch, viewing distance somewhere between 2-3 feet. Oh and both are 144Hz, will be used on gaming and school stuff
Nice vid! Really clarified some things for me. But: do you think de AOC 27G2U is also good for (semi-professionel) video editing?
I got this monitor the 24" one
It's just soooooooooooo goooood
I highly recommend it
hi, sorry for bothering you, but i have a question/ rather dilema: which is better for playing and watching movie, etc. (not for working tho :D), the 25" TN monitor (i have now Asus VG258QR) or some 27" IPS? I will explain: i have been on NEC EA232WMi IPS monitor and everything was fine, but just fine ( only with 60 FPS, no GSYNC...). Then i have upgraded to ASUS and since then i have a weird feeling about this. Maybe it is TN technology itself or the pixel density of this monitor.. that causing the suspension of disbelief in games or films (feels like i see actually the screen/ pixels rather the content of the screen). It is hard to describe. So I will think to buy again some IPS monitor with a high refresh rate.. which should i get to playing in 1440p ( if i get 27") or in some expensive/ RTX games in 1080p/60fps? Do you recommend the setup of two IPS monitors (1440p/ 27", 1080p/25") or only one 27" IPS? Can only one monitor setup do the same job? It is able 1440p 27" monitor with a game in lower resolution 1080p on it visually looks the same as on 25" monitor with black bars (aspect ratio the same as 25" monitor - without stretching on full screen)? If it can i will buy only one monitor as a replacement for ASUS for a higher price otherwise i must split the money between two monitors. Anyways i look forward to your replies, recommendation, etc. guys. Thank you and have a good day ;).
Well done bro.. I do mostly text editing based work.. would it make any difference on the text pixelation ff you're sitting 4 feet away from both the 1080p and 1440p 27 incher?
Hi,
i mainly do programming (60%), movie and games ( 40%), i sit around 50cm from monitor, what should i currently buy? 27inch or 24 inch 1080p?
(1440 out of budget)
When you say sharper text and sharper image, what do you mean? Could you give similar words as to what that means?
Hi Brad. I'm in dilemma on this issue for almost week now. I want to upgrade my monitor as I did do some upgrade to my PC, I bought i5-10400 with ASUS Strix RTX 2060 Super. I can't decide which monitor would be best for me, either 27" 1440p or 24" 1080p, both with high Hz. My old monitor are 24" 1080p and only with 60Hz. I'm not hardcore or too competitive gamer, and I'm usually do use my PC for multimedia like watching movies, doing some Photo editing, would you recommend me, what's monitor that actually will work perfectly or well for my current specs, really appreciate your answer.
27" 1440p will be a nice fit for your specs
I made the switch from a 1080p to a 1440p and I can say I will never go back. I use my computer for everything ranging from gaming to work, so the increase in PPI is huge for me. I have the Acer Predator XB271HUA, and while on the expensive side, is hands down the best purchase I’ve made in a very long time.
Does watching videos on your 1440p monitor on 1080 resolution look blurry or anything like that? I want a 1440 monitor but not sure on how it will affect watching anything that only offers a lower resolution
@@horizon1234510 So, I actually had this thought when I was upgrading. I can say I haven’t noticed any “degradation” when watching let’s say 1080p RUclips videos or even 720p for that matter. Even Netflix looks good on my monitor.
However, I recently just picked up a 4K TV for my bedroom from Prime Day and have seen that it does look blurry when watching RUclips or Netflix.
All in all though, at 1440p, you’ll be fine because the pixel difference isn’t really that much of a difference compared to 4K. If you’re looking for a 1440p monitor, I’d be more than happy to suggest a few that I really like!
@@chris977s thanks for your reply !! I was worried that watching videos or anything below a 1440 monitor would look bad , thanks for clearing that up ! And yes I’d take any suggestion for a good monitor , my preference would be a 27 inch curved and 144 hz. Do u know anything about the viotek gnv27DB QHD monitor ?
@@horizon1234510 No problem! Yes, I actually looked into the non curved version of this monitor. While Viotek certainly is a great option, I've seen some complaints about getting DOA monitors and some complaints on their customer service. My girlfriend got the MSI Optix MAG27CQ about 4 months ago and she loves it. It's a great curved monitor and is the same price as the Viotek. So for the same money I personally feel you get more features and also a little bit better spec wise. So check out the MSI monitor and compare the two
@@chris977s I definitely will thanks so much for your advice ! I will be getting my first gaming P.C. today so advice was well needed !
Hi, your explanation is awesome, how about a 1080p 27" and using DLDSR to make it 1440p display? is using native 1440p is better?
HI - Very helpful video! I just picked up a FHD 32 inch curved monitor. Love it, but also a big mistake. FHD at 32 inch is terrible for general use. Everything is huge and still cant fit much on the screen. I was happy with my prior 24 inch FHD. So, if I get a different 34 inch curved, should I get a 2K or 4K? Which would be the closest to my old 24 inch FHD, as far as fonts, etc keeping their same actual size and clarity? THANKS!
32 inch 2K is the same pixel size in your case. I went from a 1920x1200 24 inch (Dell U2410) to a 31.5 inch 2K monitor (Gigabyte G32QC). The pixels are close to the same size on both monitors.
Looking for a new monitor for let's say 80/20% office/gaming use. I guess 1440p is great for desktop use but a bit too much for my setup for the latest games. So my question is would turning down the resolution to 1080p for certain games be advisable at all? I've read in another review that the ex2780q is quite good at 1080 upscaling actually?
1080p on a 1440p monitor won't look as nearly good as a monitor with native 1080p.
Hi! thanks so much for your video. It's been a GREAT help! Question? I have an original Nvidia Geforce GT 710 and I wanted to know if this card can handle say, the BenQ PD2700Q 1440 monitor? Can you help me out on this question? THANKS!!!
Hi, how will 1080p movie looks on either a 1080p 24 inch or 1440p 27 inch?
Any nice budget option for 1440p upgrade from aoc 27g2?
uhmm i have a 27 inch 1080p monitor and cannot notice what you are pointing at
Great video, really informative and good editing! If I could advise something, and please don't take this negatively. I can understand it could be perceived as negative, but I would advise moving back a few inches from the camera. It feels just a little bit uncomfortable!
Thanks for the constructive criticism. You’re the second person that has mentioned that to me. If I may ask (and you don’t mind answering), what about makes it feel uncomfortable? Just too “in your face?” I’m always open to to criticism and I don’t consider it negative.
@@HomeTheaterGamer Yes it is a bit too much "in your face" as you said. It might be because the lighting contrast is quite literally night and day and this makes you the main focus, and might make it more an "in your face" type of situation. There is one RUclipsr that does this nicely balanced but in a different aesthetic, that is The Tech Chap. He doesn't centre himself and is a bit further from the camera, but he makes the environment more bright. JayzTwoCents does it in your style, centred and a bit closer, but also doesn't have the lighting contrast. I think either brightening the lighting or moving a bit further from the camera will help, but the lighting might be an aesthetic you are not looking for, I understand that. The video you have with your wife (ruclips.net/video/AGCrUoP7vZY/видео.html) is the better balance for me aesthetically, based on lighting and distance. Either way it is just something I would like to point out and i do like your content, that should have a lot more subscribers based on your last few videos.
EDIT: Wait a minute, LMAO! For me the lighting and distance in your tutorial video ruclips.net/video/v00N_NUZprU/видео.html are perfect in my opinion! At the end at around the 11:00 mark!
Thanks for taking the time to respond, with examples no less! I really do appreciate it. I’ve been thinking of rearranging my desks as well so that’ should definitely help. My biggest issue currently is space since I have our guest bed in the room (just behind the camera). Unfortunately that does limit my placement of the camera which drives me crazy. Haha. I’ll work on some stuff for next weeks video so lookout for some changes. Thanks again!
@@HomeTheaterGamer Not a problem, thanks for taking the time to listen and reply to my feedback! I do look forward to your upcoming videos!
Hey buddy, you seem to have a ton of experience with monitors, can you give me a hand? I can't wrap my head around this...
I really like the 27-inch display size as my main display for productivity --coding, taking notes with my graphic tablet, and watching educational videos--. Because of that, I would like to have a monitor that complements the 27-inch display...Which resolution would you recommend for the 27-inch display, and which monitor size and resolution would you recommend as a complementing display for the 27-inch display?
I was thinking of going 27 at 4k plus a 24 at 1080p
Appreciate your suggestions!
PS: I don’t do gaming at all!
I have 27 inch 1080 280 hz and was thinking to go 1440p 165 hz but cant deside should I change it to it or keep my current monitor
Ive been using the asus vg278 for a while now and since i play fps and not very immersive single player games it doesnt bother me too much. When it comes to csgo or siege i usually have it stretched to 1280x1024 anyway
Like your video and already subscribed. My dilemma is I now have an old laptop (14" Lenovo Z480) with limited memory etc. so 1440p will be too much for my laptop (I assume). Currently not willing to replace it yet (still running well), and but battling whether to buy 24" or 27" monitor. Mainly for internet browsing, watching RUclips, reading emails, news and ebook, and occasional video editing (more in the future). What advice do you (or anyone) have in this case?
Its a late reply , i have the same issue like you now any news ?
1440p is for gamers imo. Helps with the sharpness in games and gets rid of rough edges on things far away. Definitely not for your average pc user just doing light work.
1440p is for content creator and artists, high refresh rates and response times is for gamers
Excelente video! Saludos desde Argentina!
In your opinion, which one better on 1080p. 25inch or 27inch ?
I had a 1440p tn panel and swapped it for the benq ex2510, a 25 inch ips panel at 1080p. I use it for gaming and admin, writing and research/study. In gaming I notice it in highly detailed games, but not in others. 25 inch is a great size for me. All in all i am happy. I got fed up of having everyone bang on about 1440p and seeing the price of the gpus you need to power it in modern games compared to 1080p.
@@Eric_Von_Yesselstyn the landscape today is very different from two years ago when this comment was written. Two years ago we were dealing with crypto mining/COVID related price hikes etc. Yes 1440 would be what I chose now. My 1449p screen was tn panel today's are much nicer
Hello, I have a laptop with a Intel i7-1065G7 CPU @ 1.30GHz that has Intel(R) Iris(R) Plus Graphics, do you think i can use a 1440p monitor with a 144hz refresh rate, or should I stick with a 1080p monitor at 60-75hz instead?
So is there ALOT of a difference with 1080p 24inch and 27 inch or not
If I wear glasses and just want to use it for email and stock charts should I go with 24 inch 1080? I like clear text but I magnify they size anyway.
A 24 inch monitor would work great in this instance!
Definitely go 1080p, no need for anything higher unless you're gaming or video editing
Hello is there a visible different between a 24 and 27 inch monitor on fhd? I bought a 27 fhd 240hz monitor. 240hz at wqhd is way to expensive and I have a wqhd 70hz Monitor as second and I hope I won’t see an extrem different.
I would say the difference is not that big of a deal. For a 27in 1080p 240 hertz I would recommend the LG UltraGear 27GN750-B. I really like how the colors look out of the box and it has HDR support.
Thanks, now the question is which budget monitor has good looking text ? Cause i want it for programming and reading pdf books, I'm stuck my budget is under 500$ and im looking for good monitor since a week now most of them are expensive, can you please guys help me
Im in a dilemma in choosing a monitor for the xbox series S between the LG 27GL650F-B.AWZ or the SAMSUNG LU28R550UQLMZD 28”. Although the Samsung is 60hz it's 4k and the LG is 1080 but 144hz... is there much difference in image quality ? I think 60fps is pretty good for consoles but the possibility on running 120fps is putting me in such a dilemma, could anyone help me? i also intend on using it as a 2nd monitor in my imac mid 2011 for photoshop editing.
guys 24 1080p or would 27 inch for a double monitor setup.Also would 1080p at 27 be any good for work or coding?
Im playing only e-sports fps games, i have 1080p 27" 72hz monitor so im used to 27" 1080p. I want to buy 1080p 27" 165hz monitor but i know that same monitor with 24" will work better. Do you think me changing 27" to 24" will be downgrade and it will be hard for me to play good? Or maybe better choose that 27" 1080p
Very Nice video I'm glad i found your channel. But what if i have 24" monitor 1080p is it as good as 27" 1440p?
24" at 1080p monitor has 93PPI depth and 27" at 1440p monitor has 108PPI depth... So theoretically it's definitely better to have higher ppi... But in real life scenario there is not so much gain...
It’s the same as 32in 1440p
What about 1440p vs 4k in the same (27'') size? Is it really that different sharpness wise and worth the performance hit?
I personally don't feel 4K is worth it at the size. The performance hit is so substantial that I don't think it's currently worth it unless a game has something like DLSS.
upgraded from a Sceptre C24 1080p 144hz to an LG Ultragear 27in 1440p 144hz monitor. differencr is night and day, unfortunately im rocking an RTX 2060 laptop so i can get 144fps in 1440p on new games.but still worth it. i usually play @ 1440p 80fps
Which monitor i can buy for text reading smoothly 2k or 4k plz suggest best
what webcam do you use here bro? and for your streaming? Thanks,
I'm not using a webcam here. I shoot my videos with a Canon M50. I don't do any live streaming.
Thanks for the great vid.
I actually don't edit videos nor photos etc. I just watch Netflix or Amazon Prime video, so, will the movies look fine on 1080p?
Did u get one?
I am confused between a 24 inch and 27-inch 1080p monitor. I will use it only for consuming content and doing coding. Which one should I go for?
apparently 27 inches are too pixelated. I have a 32 inch tv being used as a monitor and its hella pixelated when coding so you wouldn't want to use that. If you can try getting dual 24 inch monitor/ If not I'd still recommend getting the smaller 24 inch and getting another one in the future
I cant do 1080p anymore. It started after using my 4k tv as a gamin monitor. I got a HD 27 inch montior i got years ago, used it without to attention to much attention on pixels (tho i noticed it) before i got used to glorious native 4k big screen experience. I used my tv for some time, but 60hz is, well... 60hz. So, i decided to get a new dedicated pc monitor again, plan was to go for a good ultra wide, but came over msi 1440p screen for a ok price. And sick of 60hz, i got it... I got it connected, at first glance at desktop i knew something was wrong.. Then i see it, i got wrong screen. Got the 1080p ver instead of 1440p ver.. 1440p is better, for a decent monitor.. At least when its 27inch.. And even a 1440p 27 inch, my big 4k 60hz screen beats its when it comes to clarity, and well. expect refresh rate. Everything else, HDR, better color, tho black isnt that much better.. And if you got a polaris-pascal series, i would get a 1440p monitor at this point. That screen will be good for some time, if you dont buy a monitor that sucks. One thing i miss is HDR, but feel its to expensive. And rather upgrade cpu, etc. But if you can, HDR is very nice. I can always use my 4k monitor for HDR games if i feel the need. Even after years, experience sitting close to that screen, native 4k with HDR can blow me away. xD
Thanks for the comment! I agree with HDR. It can make a big difference if done right and the monitor has proper support. That's kind of the issue right now: many monitors have lackluster HDR. You need to end spending the big bucks on a monitor to get the best HDR experience. And even then, you have to deal with Windows 10's horrible implementation of it.
i just bought acer xv272u 1440p 27inch monitor for about $302. the other option i had was a 1080p monitor same specs just lower resolution and it was about $168. But in thw 1440p one i was getting height adjustible + pivot stand and 4 usb 3.o io .
I had two 24 '1080p 65Hz monitors. They replaced one main one on 27 '1440p 144Hz.
27 - 1080p dual monitor setup is super for general use. Easy to read from long distance. Like very long. AOC 27G2 is cool.
Indeed it is!
5 days with 2k (Acer Nitro VG270UPbmiipx 27\ 144hz) after 2 years with FHD (75) gave me incradible experince in everything! The answer is easy even if you will not see pixels the general picture is great!
So my PC can run 1440p, but not full at 144fps on some games, so would I benefit from getting a 1440p monitor or go with a 27in 1080p 144hz monitor? I'm literally like 1.2ft away from the monitor.
@Jordon Tong my PC can't hit 144fps in most games at 1440p either, but due to things like g-sync and freesync it's not an issue for me. I'd say go with the 1440p monitor if you can afford it and if you know it supports either NVIDIA's G-Sync or AMD's Freesynce technology.
you can always downscale a 1440p to 1080p :p
@@suirty69yearsago32 will it look bad though
I set custom resolution for playing games my gpu gtx 1070 cant handle newer AAA games it can run at console like fps in high detail but i prefer to use custom resolution and adding sharpening via control panel great visual + good fps although not good as 1080p fps
Hi, I am a programmer and mainly use my monitor for watching RUclips videos, writing documents, and programming. I sit 20-25cm away from the computer for approximately 10 hours a day(But with a lot of breaks in between). I am currently looking at Dell SE2719HR which is a 27 inch 1080p monitor. I am worried this will cause strain to my eyes during extended usage. Do you think I should go for it? Budget is tight, but I am willing to go for the higher end if the benefits far outweigh the consequences.
At that distance, you’re better off going with a 1440p monitor as at 1080p it will definitely be blurry and eye straining over the course of 10 hours, even with lots of breaks. And since you’re dealing with text and code a lot, 1440p will be a lot sharper.
@@HomeTheaterGamer Wow. I'm definitely sold. I'll be going for the Dell U2518D instead. I appreciate your fast comment.
No problem. Glad I could help! You won’t be disappointed with going 1440p.
You are very close to the screen. The recommended is 45cm to 70cm
So if i suffer from astigmatism the 27 1080pwould be cool?
Got the LG 27GL650F-B. Its 27 at 1080p. My buddy has a 4k PG27UQ. Its higher than 1440p but I also have a 60hz 27" 1440p monitor. The difference in clarity is less noticeable probably because the IPS Panel of my 1080p monitor was made in consideration of the lower pixel density at 27, but I would upgrade to 1440p or 4k on anything above a 24 the very DAY it becomes more mainstream and affordable. Not worth spending $1k on a monitor tbh. maybe 600-700, but thats a huge reach too.
I know its so much late but did you feel any pixelation on your 1080p 27 inch monitor? And how far do you seat from your monitor?
I looking for a new monitor and im not sure what to get, but im sure of what it will not be and thats 1080p 27" i chose betwien 1440p or 4K and 27/28" or 32" why are it any monitor that are 29/30" thats could be ideal...
I have a 1080p 24 inch monitor is a 27 inch 1440p still a big upgrade in quality even bing bigger ? I can only find videos of both 27 inch
Yes, it is a noticeable difference, I made the same upgrade.
What should I choose for CS2 >>>> 1080p 27 inch AOC 144hz , or ViewSonic 27 inch 1080p 165 hz , or after watching this video should I go to 24 inch 1080p or it doesn't really matter if I play E-sport games and want to do a headshots in long distances ?
1:15 I could say that you can clearly see the low pixel density so 24" is for 1080p I supose.
Excellent video, this is exactly what i´ve been looking for in youtube as i´m about to upgrade to 1440p.
Just a question, there´s this Samsung monitor, 27 inch, 1440p and 144hz but without any form of adaptive sync, is the tearing bad if i don´t constantly hit 144 fps? If it is then that is a deal breaker for me, and in that case, sticking with 27 inch 1080p 144hz but with freesync is the way to go?
Loved your video.
Thanks for the comment! Tearing can be pretty bad, but even worse is the stutter from the FPS changes. It’s game ruining for me. Some games are worse than others, but even going from 120fps to 135fps is noticeable. Unless you limit FPS to a number you know your GPU can hit consistently, I’d recommend going with an adaptive sync monitor.
The moment I saw Jen from The IT crowd, was the moment I pressed like xD
My dilemma is this. I have a 23" 1080 right now. Text is getting harder to read in the last year or so and my eyesight is getting progressively worse. I watch all TV and movies on my PC sometimes with videos often at 720p? Will it be an improvement for me to switch to a 27" 1440? Will the 720p videos still be clear and will text be any easier to read?
Text will if anything become harder to read. 23" 1080p has around a 91 PPI, 27" 1440p has 108 PPI, this means that in general text is going to appear quite smaller
Would you recommend the MSI optix mag273r 27inch 1080 for sitting about 2 feet away
Honestly, any 1080p monitor will look great at 2 feet away. The Optix Mag273r looks to have really great specs however I don’t have experience with it. I don’t think you can go wrong with it, though.
I just bought a Samsung 27" 1080p monitor and I was expecting it to be way worse based on what others were saying. I primarily work in a DAW (Reason) and it is fine. I hadn't ever had anything bigger than a 16" laptop screen up to that point.
have u did a 1080p vs 1440p at 144hz vs 240hz?
Hi, i want to buy new monitor for lots of video editing, after effects work, graphic editing and gaming too. I have 20" monitor now.
Going for 24" fhd 144hz refresh rate is good enough (in term of size) or i must buy 27" 2k monitor? I m tight on budget. So thinking to go with 24"
Kindly respond asap. ✌️☺️✌️.
Or
Shall I buy 27" fhd monitor. Use my GPU to make 2k resolution. Will it consume more power??
This helped make things clear although just how bad is the LG 27GL650F monitor? It comes with Gsync compatibility and is FHD on a 27" screen size
I don't have experience with that monitor, but 1080p at 27 inches is fine as long as you're more than a foot away from the screen. If you have a compatible NVIDIA GPU then getting a gysnc compatible monitor is the only way to go, in my opinion.
@@HomeTheaterGamer well, I got an RTX 2060. Hope it holds up just fine.
I think you’ll be good. Hope you enjoy the monitor. Be sure to post back once you get it and let me know how you like it!
@@HomeTheaterGamer Sure will :)
Thanks.
Hi dude, i am considering buy that LG, how was your experience with it? thanks!
I'd assume that the 1080,27 inch monitor is good for gaming but bad for web browsing due to the low ppi.
What happens if you put the 27 inches 1080p monitor a little further away from your sight? Doesn't that cover the issue with the pixel density a bit?
It does help (based on my common knowledge), which is why I'm here looking for the same answer. I'd guess that once it reaches a certain distance you would be able to tell.
what about using 1440p monitor and playing games in full hd resolution? how it looks bro? bad?
I am still rocking 1080p 22 inch 😀
Everything looks good on thise things..
I Found a 27" 165Hz 1080p VA monitor for around 180$ Should i buy it?
Excellent 👍. Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Thank you! Welcome to the channel!
india (me) loves bangladesh (you)
Excellent Bro. Good explanation just like and subscribe your channel
Thank you so much!
I'm still concern about what to pick resolution at 27 inch, coz we only see through video, but never really on place testing it *sigh*. Would you recommend this BenQ EW2780 or LG27GL650, Sir?
Anyway, your explanation is very well understandable. keep up the good work 👍🏻👍🏻
If you can afford it, the LG 27GL650 has better specs on paper. 144Hz, better sRGB coverage, G-Sync compatibility (great if you have an NVIDIA graphics card) and it also has height, pivot and tilt adjustments. Granted, the EW2780, in the US at least, is about $130 CHEAPER but is more of a budget monitor.
I don’t personally have experience with the LG monitor specifically, but if you can afford it you’ll get more features and a higher refresh rate. The AOC 27G2 is also one you may want to consider, but it can be hard to find at a decent price and goes out of stock frequently. It does look like Amazon currently has it due in stock on July 12th in the US.
@@HomeTheaterGamer thank you for this information! But I'm still really confused what to pick lol. Some saying ps4 slim on 1440p monitor is look bad and strecth, but on desktop it looks great, while on the 1080p vice versa. The 1440p is future proof, but 1080p is what I consider, rhe only concern is the pixel density
You get a like for the it crowd reference
Would I blow everyone's mind if I ate dessert first?
If my viewing distance is 3-4 ft, is 1080p good enough for working with text?
That is....quite far sitting 3-4 feet away
It should look crisp though
Can i strech on 2560 1440p?
Mac 2017 27inch.
Good video. Like!
hi bro i have astigmat i will buy my first gaming pc rtx 4060 8 gb i dont know how is image quality good on 1080p or i must buy 1440 p ?
do u know how to fix the problem with things being blurry when using 27inch 1440p with 125% display scaling
For each application/ program you have to go to Properties -> Compatibility -> Change high DPI settings -> Override high DPI scaling behaviuor. At the end you'll end up throwing anything beyond 1080p due to Windows scaling issues. (Win 11 might have that fixed but i doubt it)
