    Looks like a really cool monitor. Must admit, the specs are pretty similar to the Dell I've had for a while but the USB C port is killer - could use it with a work laptop if you have one that charges by USB C

    • @ChrisHendrickson

      I've got one of LG's ultrawide 1440p monitors with a USB-C port and a hub in it. It's great with my macbook for work, one cable and I get power, keyboard, mouse, and ethernet (I have a gigabit USB3 dongle plugged in). My only gripe is there's no way to get the hub connected to anything other than the device on the USB-C port so it doesn't work as a usb switcher.

      Dell has got more expensive options with USB-C as well, and the higher end models have a KVM switch as well. But this is a 165 Hz gaming monitor which also has a matte screen it seems. So I think it would perfectly double as an office monitor too. You really don't need portrait mode for that, especially if you have another screen that could do that trick.

    Honestly, maybe a hot take, but I would prefer the three screws. Yes, it might not need them, but I like the peace of mind that the monitor is actually well supported. Realistically you are only going to assemble this thing a few times, so that extra hassle isn't a huge deal.

      I mean, toolless doesn't necessarily mean less secure.
      In this particular case what he's probably talking about are the monitor stands that have screws but the screws themselves have a little flip out piece of metal that you can use to move the screw with your fingers (and they're tight enough that they stay in place when not flipped up) and they still have the Phillips head so if you don't want to use the little handle or it's broken you're not screwed (ba-dum-tish)
      Considering that Pixio is trying everything they can to send out a quality product at a very competitive cost, those kinds of screws were probably considered extraneous and unnecessary, so they cut them to cut costs a little.
      So yes, while they're unnecessary, they're definitely not less secure.

      @@hugh_janus121 I have the new 1440p version of that monitor (GP850-B) and it’s been great so far. Good color and brightness right out of the box and is better once you mess around with the settings and even fully calibrate it. It’s obviously not going to have the best blacks and will have some backlight glow because it’s IPS, but for the $400 I paid for it, it’s a great deal.

      It's a great monitor (granted I upgraded from 1920x1200p 60Hz TN [Samsung T240] :D)
      You can disable RGB (it only shows on "wake-up"), and it does have lock to "original aspect ratio" ;)
      Main issues I have with it are blacks. It really can't do them dark enough, there is a "dark grey-ish" or "dark chrome-ish" look to them, regardless of brightness/contrast level set AND it get's worse as you go higher on brightness.
      HDR is there, looks really nice on bright scenes, and sucks in dark[er] ones (but that's IPS for you).
      Possibly not anti-refleflective (or anti-glare ?) enough on coating - in my case, white objects on desk (close to monitor itself) get reflected easily, but how much it effects you is up to your desk (ie. what's in frot of the monitor) and light environment you have.
      Lastly, there is no "one mode to control all things". You ALWAYS drop some optinons to tweak (brightness/contrast/gamma/etc.), REGARDLESS of the mode you pick.

    I bought a Pixio PX329 about 2.5 years ago and I've loved it. Its the 32" 1440p 144hz base model and it's served me well since I bought it. I had some early problems with the screen blacking out during full screen gaming, but it must have been an Nvidia driver issue, because it went away on its own after some time. With a few settings tweaks, the picture and color quality are really nice and it was only $300 when I purchased it. Overall, I think Pixio has a real shot at being a hidden gem of a company for those who are willing to go find their products. Delivering high quality monitors at good prices is exactly what we need in the industry right now, so I hope Pixio keeps it up.

    - first one ordered on Amazon UK just went missing and was marked as delivered. Amazon refunded and sent another one out immediately which was great.
    - one of the two monitor stand screws arrived knackered but I’ve mounted it on a clamp as the Pixio stand is painfully low and takes up a lot of desk space!
    Apart from that it’s a fantastic FreeSync QHD display, playing competitive and older games at 165fps!

      @CreativityNull 2 года назад +3

      AMD does too actually, you just don't hear much about it because it typically doesn't work as well. It's the same concept on AMD as their cores dedicated to OpenCL (vs Nvidia'S proprietary CUDA) and they keep the whole thing open source so software that implements it (There are plugins for OBS that do utilize it very well with no noticeable performance impact.) is all community driven.
      Honestly though, I miss having shadowplay for doing clips. I don't stream, but AMD's answer to shadowplay is lower quality and honestly the interface is so clunky I haven't figured out how to get it to save clips with a keybind like shadowplay does. Granted I do like not having to have an account to use what should be completely offline software lol. I'll figure it out eventually I just haven't sat down and given a lot of focus on it, but I didn't have to for shadowplay IIRC.

      I don't know where you heard that but it's not true. Using NVENC reduces the core performance as there's still some processing being done that isn't just the video encoding. If you're livestreaming, most software use your GPU for compositing the scene. Even ShadowPlay reduces your in-game performance a little.

    I would absolutely looove a monitor with a built-in KVM! This definitely looks interesting. Would prefer 16:10 to make it better for work, but I have barely seen any ~28-inch 2560x1600 monitors for some reason.

    Honestly what I care about most in a monitor is how color accurate it is which unfortunately many gaming monitors are not the best at. If it's right refresh rate gaming monitor vs color accurate studio monitor with 60 hz...

    • @Girvo747
      @Girvo747 2 года назад +1

      If colour accuracy is really important, then it’s worth getting a SpyderX or something similar and calibrating one of these wide gamut high refresh monitors yourself. It’s what I did - my own ICC profile, User mode which is calibrated for my work and content viewing, and then chuck it in FPS mode for when I’m playing Valorant and I don’t *want* accurate colours but instead overly vibrant ones so I can notice enemies quicker. This is with an Asus XG27UQ (4K 144hz)

I wish the HDR function worked better but that's more of a windows fault. But Pixio seems to be a good brand, I'm happy with it and it'll run at full 10 bit color without DSC

    • @kendokaaa
      @kendokaaa 2 года назад

      The PX7 Prime is in no way capable of HDR despite the branding, like pretty much every other monitor in this price class. It's not just a Windows thing, low color volume + low brightness + no local dimming means not capable of HDR. Look at any professional review of that monitor or any similarly priced one, HDR it ain't

    • @tittledieselperformancellc
      @tittledieselperformancellc 2 года назад

      @@kendokaaa Not true HDR but can process the signaling for it which helps in some situations. The issue I have is the washed out windows 10 nonsense from lack on color pallet switching. Works fine on everything else (such as an xbox or 4K HDR player) though. More then 450nits isn't necessary anyways. I know its not a really HDR display though. I also have a bright room its in so true black level isn't really a thing anyways but thanks for pointing it out.

    This monitor reminds me of mine that I'm using right now (Gigabyte Aorus AD27QD). 27", bezels/frame/stand very very similar, same resolution, the menu navigation (the nipple on mine is centered under the logo).. The pixio has higher brightness, more ports, higher refresh rate (165 vs 144). Mine has displayport 1.4 instead of 1.2, & more screen modes. Idk about some of the other stuff (response time/colours). Mine was $700 cdn in 2019. The pixio is around $465 cdn for a straight usd to cdn conversion.
    Hopefully Pixio does well and contiues to make more monotors that are cheaper than the competition and good :D
