I love that you watch optimum. Every video he posts is so premium IMO. He is not as widespread or as continuously posting as you are, ut whenever he does post, he's got me and probably just about every subscriber HOOKED from start till finish. Not to take anything away from the Badseed, quite the opposite, but the production quality and niche on optimum tech is just.. something else
Thing to note on Optimum’s recommendations is that he’s a competitive nut. It’s his bread, butter and crack. The guy made the lightest mouse in the world and would sell his own mother for a higher refresh rate. So if that sounds like you then yeah he might be your go to for recommendations. Anyone else nah.
+1 for Carpio. Legit game changer product for office work. It's basically like sleeping without a pillow your whole life and then somebody invents the pillow.
@@badseedtech I know I am late to the Party but mine arrived today and I am surprised how natural it feels to use! I am Considering one for my left hand aswell since regular wrist rests are a little uncomfortable for me, does someone here have some expierence with that?
they have 360hz 1440p 27 qd oled panels coming from samsung next year. the native pixel response time of oled will likely mean a 360hz oled will be similar or faster responding compared to a 500hz tn with the added bonus of much better picture quality and contrast.
Never knew this channel existed but this dude is one of the best momitor reviewers already in my eyes after just watching this one review. Really good stuff!
Rhythm games. That is another thing this would be good for, DJMAX, EZ2ON are two I play and I use a 360hz monitor for them, don't think a 540 would matter too much tbh but there are more games than just the ones you mentioned. OSU Mania maybe ( I don't like it so don't know how much FPS they allow up to ), Etterna and more. This is 100% a niche product but its awesome to see them pushing for more stuff like this.
Personally I think grasping for higher refresh rates on rhythm games is a bit of a red herring. Just in terms of peripherals, I think low latency controls make a bigger difference and no one seems to be talking about the role low latency audio has in keysounded games. The Presonus Quantum series of Thunderbolt interfaces boasts sub-millisecond latency. I love to know if it makes any difference in EZ2ON, which already has industry leading audio latency, but I'm not about to throw down $700 to find out.
@@lilpain1997 ehhhhhhhh it's important to a point. look. the monitor on the IIDX Lightning Model is objectively bad. TN, ghosts like a motherfucker. Doesn't matter, the jump from 60 to 120fps was a game changer. We are getting 12 MAXs now. That did not happen before.
@@badseedtech oh okay its all good at least you’re doing it i haven’t started anything really. And i should’ve mentioned i found you i think when you was at like 10 or 20k subs. It just felt really fast. Lol
for fortnite you should've used preformance mode in the rendering mode section instead of the low preset as the majority of people that play it run it on preformance mode to squeeze out as many frames as possible
I can confirm I use the Carpio G 2.0 (G standing for gamer I'm pretty sure) and it has a rubber strap instead of just being a free wrist support like the 2.0. I personally love the G 2.0 as it helps me when editing or when I'm playing an extremely high APM game (RoR2 with huntress or mercenary). With valorant it's a bit tough but my wrist issues have gone down tremendously since buying the G 2.0 so I don't need it for everything anymore. HIGHLY recommend. I have also bought third party 3D printed wrist supports on amazon and they do not work the same at all. They feel either too stiff or don't support my hand as well. Highly recommend just buying the Carpio :)
Hi Bri, 🥰👋. I’ve been using the original Carpio wrist wrest for over 2yrs now and for me, they are worth the money and are great for long gaming / productivity sessions😇💪👍!
Great question! G2G response times have everything to do with how fast the monitor transitions from one frame to the next. What it looks like with lower G2G is that you can still see the previous frame exiting while the new frame is drawing in - that's Ghosting, not Motion Blur. In other words, G2G doesn't have a lot to do with motion blur. Motion Blur is when you eyes are tracking a moving target on screen and its why we test with a camera moving at the same rate as a moving target - to simulate what your eyes would do. The only way to reduce motion blur is to 1) increase refresh rate or 2) employ a backlight strobing technique to reduce the visual effects of "sample and hold". In this particular statement, I'm comparing two monitors with *very* impressive backlight strobing tech to OLED panels which lack backlight strobing bc their max brightness isn't enough to utilize strobing. If you compare these two monitors with their strobing turned off, then the OLED would look similar in terms of motion blur. You can check out Blur Busters for in-depth explainers of sample and hold if you want to dig deeper.
@@badseedtech thanks for the response I’ve heard that oled are by nature better so if you get 120hz oled it’s like you got 240hz on another panel as far as input lag and ghosting and motion blur is concerned I don’t recall the exact numbers so the numbers are just made up but , the idea is a lower oled is better than a higher refresh tn or ips panel
They’re only objectively better in G2G response times (ghosting) and contrast ratio. If you’re measuring *only* G2G then yes, its safe to say that a lower fps oled would perform “better” than a higher fps ips or tn - but thats misleading and definitely doesn’t tell the whole story. That said, if you’re not playing sweaty FPS and motion clarity isn’t your main concern, go OLED.
@@badseedtech I’ve got the oled g9 but the thing is it feels like I need 2 monitors these days One for sweaty FPS games and one for story narrative games Isn’t there something that is all rounder option one monitor for all use cases ? Don’t want to limit myself to one genre of games
Just to note, rainbow six is my main game and the benchmark compared to in game is drastically different. I get 600 in benchmark and in game I sit around 340 - 450 (depending on what operators are being played).
try out osu where i got 1000 fps with a vega 64. there a 540hz monitor will be noticed the most, its also the only game in which i notice a change from 240hz to 360hz
You should see if you can get your hands on the two new oled Alienware monitors coming out next month for review. One is 4k 32" 240Hz, and the other is QHD 27" 360Hz.
He should but I really doubt they're coming next month. It'll be for preorder only Id bet. I wonder who will launch first between them and Samsung who have at least confirmed their versions are in production.
Thanks for the review. Just a point. RAM is proven to be very important for 1080p when GPU is under-utilised. Your CPU is also under utilised and that’s because of the RAM. Running ddr4 here doesn’t make this monitor review justice as I’m sure if you were running high speed DDR5 (~7000Mhz) kits you would see much higher results across the board, upwards of around 10-20% in some cases or even more I’m sure. Don’t neglect the importance of RAM these days. I run CS2 on 1440p with a 4090, 13900k and DDR5@6000Mhz and run consistently above 500 fps, often in the 6-700s. I just ordered this monitor to try out some gameplay in CS2, overwatch, warzone etc.
It's monitors like this and all the new GPU's that have me scratching my head everytime I go into PC Graphic settings on a video game to find V-Sync Ticked ON. lol one of the first things I uncheck these days...and then motion blur right after. Stellar vid as always!
It was hard to decide between the ASUS ROG Swift Pro PG248QP 540hz TN with 1080p and ASUS ROG Swift PG27AQN 360hz IPS with 1440p… I went with the PG27AQN and I’m really impressed. Great review, thank you.
@@badseedtech Based on your experience you think i should return the PG27AQN and wait for January? When the new generation of oled 360hz drops? I’m just wondering if the motion blur technology will catch up…
@@formidable2368 no way to call it yet, but I'll be among the first to have access to the next gen OLED. Thing with any background strobed tech is that the brightness gets impacted severely just by turning it on. I would honestly be really surprised if the next gen OLEDs had enough brightness to implement any tech like ULMB2 or DyAc.
if you are having wrist issues I urge you to do hand stretching exercises at least 2-3 times every session(2-3hours) and also if you add pull ups and dead hangs the problem will be gone forever.
nice finally a new monitor video! could you review the Innocn 27G1S? its a 27ich 1440p 240hz monitor for 300$ and every review i found says it can easily be on par or surpass ips/tn panels in clarity and motion handling without the typical black level smearing. but i think the most reviews are probably bought... would be amazing to have a trusted reviewer check it out!
I bought innocn 27g1s recently and I had some doubts as well with other reviews at first but I bought it anyway and I can confirm it has really good motion handling and clarity out of 8 gaming monitors I've used till now which includes tn and ips monitor. Colors and contrast are really good as well. Panel is bright enough. The only downside is viewing angle looks bit washed out but not too bad. Black smearing is non existent as well. I'm getting more headshot and kills in cod mw3 with this monitor compared to my old gaming monitors.
Some people also reported to have flickering and artifacts with innocn 27g1s while turning on adaptive sync but it isn't the issue at least in my unit.
A note about Siege, It's one of my primary games and on both my systems, I can maintain above 540 fps pretty much all the time so I jumped on this monitor as soon as I could find it available. Fast forward to actually getting it and testing it, Siege doesnt even support 540hz... Or 500. Or anything in the 400s or even 390. The game stops support at 360hz and a brief trip around R6FIX and reddit indicates that the developers of the game dont plan on supporting anything above 360hz. The quote on this was from about a year ago but from what I can tell, nothing's changed. When youre in-game, you can SET the refresh rate to 540hz but it will always revert back to 360hz as soon as you leave the display tab. You can double check/confirm this via the monitor's built in display that shows what refresh rate it's actually running. Super disappointing, because yeah, This is one of the very few games out there that I can consistently run 500+ all the time (14900K/4090/7600 DDR5/Intel APO system and 7800X3D/7900XTX) on this game specifically. I also own the PG27AQN and find myself running that instead!
One slight caveat to this is you can get around the "non-support" of 540hz or anything above 360hz by playing in borderless windowed mode. It will run at 540hz there but is incompatible in fullscreen exclusive for some awful, unknown reason. @@badseedtech
yeah i can confirm this is true. i own the pg248qp and when u switch to 500hz in game settings, it reverts to 360hz. Its really disappointing. This is the only game i play. @badseedtech
The Carpio's are nice, but I'd also recommend getting a Logitech MX Vertical. Being in IT - on a computer for 8+ hours a day - it's been a WRISTsaver. Think of it like when you put your arms down on the table. You're not putting your hands down, you're putting the side of your wrist down, which is where the logitech slots nicely. No twisting necessary in the forearm to hold your mouse is nice to have.
I got hyped when you said it is a TN panel. i dont like IPS or VA or OLED at all. I play games wich dont take much to run. So this monitor would be great for smooth gameplay at 540Hz. I think it is funny how people allways forget that there is other games than the mainstream games cuz there is thousands of games that will run way above 540hz . But the price is to high. Might wait a year or two and hope the price drops
Lol why did you get hyped at the worst looking display type by far when up until now the only other notable offering (the zowie) still had moderately SLOWER response times than the 1440p IPS 360hz from asus?
@@Frozoken I had to check my house for cameras in case i was being pranked. Because in the first part of my comment i said why i got hyped over TN. IPS VA and OLED i just dont like them at all. They suck in my opinion. IPS just hurts my eyes to look at. VA is blurr city. And OLED anything other than gaming or watching movies is a big nope
I knew going into this video I couldn't afford any of this, I just watched for your b roll shots, they never disappoint, and this video didn't ether. That 4090 and pc build 👌 🤯🤯🤯
Can you do a comparison between the 360hz PG27AQN and the 240hz OLED PG27AQDM because i can't find the PG27AQN anywhere where i live and only the OLED is available and not sure if i should go for the oled because of burn in and if 240hz is abit outdated compared to the 360hz options
i really value your opinion, and im wondering at the moment where i should look or ask for advice on acoustic wall panels. are they all foam? do you have brands or design that you recommend? im looking to get black ones unless i was gonna throw an odd color or two if i decided to go with hexagon shapes. i like the ones that kinda look like faux bricks. or ones that have low profile with line designs inside of them. theres so many options i really dont know for sure, i have a hard time with decisions. i saw yours in the background and i like those as well....any advice you have would be appreciated. i struggle with design choices....brands?.....and how many of them i would need like if i should just do a few and have them set up to be more visually pleasing or if i should do from like the half way point in the wall or a little higher and go down to the floor. Or if i should just cover my entire wall behind my desk with them, if that would have better performance. also becuase i kinda have a crappy old white paintjob on my walls that would be difficult to repaint any time soon (so im definately going for a Black/White color scheme), so covering as much as i can of the wall would give my apartment a major uplift. They definitely serve a purpose though as i have a neighbor behind my desk wall and she cant stand my speakers of volume levels at all....which puts a major damper on my hobby of editing and remixing music. any advice or help would be greatly appreciated, i know you take audio pretty seriously so i cant think of a better person to ask.... edit: i should also add that i have some govee glide hexagon pro panels and also a couple boxes of their Y Lights that im hoping to incorporate into the whole look to also go along with my Yellowpop neon user name light that i want to keep placed around the area above my monitors, so im wondering if i will have a hard time trying to stick these things on top of acooustic panels or if i should just try to go around them with the panels. i feel like going around them would make a panel design a lot more difficult to figure out as i obviously dont want the wall to look goofy.
I have this monitor. My system is: CPU: 5800x3d RAM 32GB 3200Mhz 14 timings GPU RTX 3090 Honestly I mainly play Apex at 240fps, and I'd say if you can afford this monitor it's worth it, I know everyone will have their own opinion, but in terms of motion clarity it's just amazing. I came from a 240hz monitor and only bought this one due to the 240hz dying. My goal was "Ride this monitor out another 3 - 5 years and then upgrade to OLED once the tech has gotten there, and once 4k may be able to hit current 1080p frame rates" I just really can't say enough good things about it. It was everything I was wanting it to be.
Yeah that optimum guy is cracked for sure. I tried the 480 OLED and the 540 TN for about 2 weeks each before returning them and buying a 360 qd oled. I did probably 100 blind tests between 360 and 480 and 360 and 540 and I could not consistently tell a difference.
I bought the xl2566k 5 months ago. Ive only used it for maybe 6 hours. Been trying to sell it but im going to take such a loss on it. So its being used as a secondary monitor now.
I won't guarantee it, but I'm building a new PC and I'll need a 360hz monitor, who knows, maybe I'll negotiate it with you by then. Send me the ad link. 👍🏼
Great review. I bought the same monitor few days ago but after only 2 days of use I noticed it developed some weird dark spots in the middle of the screen. These are visible when I'm displaying a black background and slightly on gray, not visible on other colors. Could you please check yours and let me know if you are having the same issue?
Nah, I dont run frame gen for competitive bc of the hit to input latency. I’ll take lower frames and lower latency. Single player is a different story, but never in competitive.
There must be a problem with your rig, I have no issues running Overwatch at 480+ average ultra textures on a 3080 10GB and 12700k, DDR5 manually tuned to 7800mhz.
And yes, everything for me is manually overclocked to the max, but there's no way I should catch up to your rig. DDR4 4100mhz+ should be near my performance level.
Im thinking memory speed has a lot to do with it. I have a weird motherboard that dropped when the 12900k did but still supported DDR4 bc the early DDR5 was still wip. Gonna rebuild in a couple weeks with a 7800x3d and some DDR5 and revisit
i got my responce time under 1-2ms of my current hz. probably gonna pick the 540 up just cause im aware my current bottleneck is my monitor. gg and ty for the review
I've been a gamer all my life, PC and Console, but now I am strictly PC. Played diablo games as a kid as young as like 6. Wrist issues are something that I am SO thankful I have never encountered yet, but is on my mind because I don't know what I would do if I had to stop playing because of it. My biggest concern, I'm a wrist gamer, I don't really use my whole arm. Do you think the Carpio is still something I should look into, or in your experience with it it's more of an arm gamer type of thing?
So it helps you engage your whole arm and *not* depend so much on your wrist. But even if you choose to keep wrist aiming, it will probably still help loads just having it elevated. For productivity its a godsend bc - especially wehn doing thumbnails and photoshop work I have a trigger depressed a lot so there's constant tension on the wrist joint while I'm moving it and that smokes it fast. It will take some getting used to if you're primarily a wrist aimer and you intend to keep wrist aiming. But it will probably benefit you in the long run. Personally, I wish I would have found it *before* I started having wrist issues.
Waiting for Zowie 540hz… Their dyac technology should support both AMD and NVIDIA, so I’m looking forward to that. Might return my Asus 540hz for that.
if i'm playing a game at 400fps with the 540hz , it will stutter or something like that? because for example, i'm planning to buy it for high level cs.. but nowadays more at the 400fps mark . (i'm not considering buying the 360hz tho, because other games i can play with more fps, but afraid of not achieving the 540avg might be bad)
How silly it is hearing about unoptimized PCs not being able to hit 540fps consistently. This video is a prime example on why tuning your RAM subtimings, voltages and Windows is so important. On my 7800x3d, I can hit 540fps consistently in OW2 at 1440p (competitive settings) and hold it at 540 no matter what. In Valorant, I can hold the same 540fps lock at 1440p. Oh and btw, I can do it whether I use a 4060ti or a 4090, since it's all CPU/RAM. Please please please people, learn about this.
People who are in the market for this type of monitor know this. Even alot of enthusiast level buyers wont care to spend the dozens of hours to max it out like that. Almost no one wants to trade stability for that
And also you arent getting 540fps on any game with a 4060ti man. Maybe at 720p with dlss but no way anyone is going to those lengths. CPU bottleneck on a 4090 doesnt mean you can get the same framerate on a lower end card dude thats not how that works
Also, you are using a CPU that performs better in certain games and you are running DDR5 also both of which he talked about in the video. I feel like you just commented to brag about your 540fps and the 100 hours you spend combing through every ship manifest for the library of Alexandria to gain 5 more fps and the 6400 runs of aida64 and memtest you ran you get your system stable. Did you get your bios title screen tattoo’d on your forearm?
@@absolutelysobeast I have a 4060ti that my gf used and I tested it throughly, my fps was 20 lower on average. 500 lock is easily possible with competitive settings because you’re still under 90% GPU utilization. Also, with a 7800x3d all I had to do was set up PBO -25 curve all cores, and then spend about 1 hour tweaking voltages and timings. I’m just at 6000mhz DDR5, my stability is guaranteed because I’m not doing anything that crazy, so I’ve been fine for 4 months. It’s not as complex as some people think, and it’s cheaper than his 13900k with DDR4 combo for more fps in basically every single esport title and most AAA titles as well. Not sure why you’re hating, this knowledge should be spread, not feared or shunned. A few hours of free tweaking for years of performance. Stop insulting and do better.
Nah I didn't. I've never played Siege and when Vulkan launched years ago iirc it was mainly for AMD cards? so I haven't stayed up on it. Good looks though.
I am ready to pull the trigger on either of these monitors and have a new concern. I am currently running a i7 13700f, 4070ti. Will my cpu bottleneck my gpu on cod mw3 with 1080p low resolution, to achieve max fps for the best competitive edge?
I’m well happy with mine, I also run pg42uq as my main so versatility is not a huge concern for me. Maining OW 2 and I can pretty much run 500+ on a 4090
im running 7800x3d with DDR5 CL30 6000mhz, Dunno if faster kit is more beneficial for X3D but i'm gonna try it out when i manage to source a 7k+ - 8k mhz kits @@badseedtech

MW3 .. You're missing a setting for unlimited FPS. The column that you're under caps it at 300 FPS.

@@mryellow6918 .. Unless you are using some form of Frame Synchronization e.g. FreeSync or G-Sync then you're going to have "smudge" in the form of tearing. However, the video has more to do with a 500 Hz / 540 Hz OC G-Sync monitor so you need to unlock the unlimited frame rate, the custom slider limits your frame rate to 300 FPS not 250 or whatever. _FYI: As far as the Unlimited setting, I have no idea how high that can go. When I use it I see an occasional 340 FPS, but the frame rate is very erratic and unstable at least for my max settings with DLSS Quality on my RTX 4090. I have not tried nor do I care to try 1920x1080 to see the absolute max possible on my PC._
i think the excitement should still be there cause its what the future holds, i think there will be games and optimizations for certain games so they can hit that 540 htz. It reminds me of the first 300 hertz monitors when they first came out, now we got 360 hertz 1440p with good colors and some games that can play it.
Oh my god that gpu is incredible. The price matches the wow factor but damn that’s the first time I’ve seen an after market card that actually seems worth a hefty premium over a founders. If I was going for some sort of no compromise build, that would be the pick 100%. Also great monitor, but I just switched from the Alienware aw2523hf (1080p 360hz) to the ASUS xg27aqmr (300hz 1440p) and I think it’s a much more balanced experience. Having been on 1440p since 2016 or so, the switch to 1080 was rough for everything but competitive games. It’s becoming a weird niche in 2023.
be look at these two monitor for a while now i still do not know what to go with coming from a 360hz 1080p do i got to 27 1440p 360 or jump to 540 at 1080p
There's something wrong with how your CPU performs on COD. I get pretty much identical numbers with my 5600X. Usually changing the RendererWorkerCount value in the config to something close to your core count can squeeze out a decent amount of performance but your 13900K should be reaching 400+fps so it can't be just that.
For PUBG, testing a big city would be more beneficial as it affects the GPU the most. With a 4090 on 1080p low you're lucky to get 300 fps while being in a major city like georgopol or yasnaya. Fighting there is pretty demanding on the GPU and you always run into a cpu bottleneck.
Turn frame gen on in mwIII. I get 540 fps in cod with a 5800x3d and a 4090. It bumps my total system input lag from 6-7ms up to 11-13ms but the motion clarity is worth it and the input lag isn’t really noticeable. 540hz is something to behold for movment men.
I used it for several days, the image problem is not caused by the resolution but by the poor quality coating which adds a multitude of shiny parasitic effects, to judge for yourself, you can do the experience and reproduce this effect on your current monitor by placing a wet finger, this is really the major fault of this monitor, I hope that the origin of the problem is not the liquid crystal pixels of the AUO panel otherwise Zowie XL2586X and Acer XV242F will have this same problem
Even at lower fps like 60fps and 120fps gaming such as consoles, its response time is an unbelievably 2.5ms. 16.7ms / 8.3ms VS 2.5ms. So fighting games, GTA 5, PS5/Xbox players will hugely benefit from that eTN panel unbelievable speed. Visual beauty? ❌️ Winning in multiplayer?✅️
I mean, i am getting an 4090 pc next week.. and i will be playing 24 inch 1080 yes i know sounds stupid but i want 4090 for my Vr sim racing that i do next to comp fps.

Right?? I was very skeptical and I honestly can't believe the difference its made. Thats a seriously great analogy too lol
@@badseedtech I know I am late to the Party but mine arrived today and I am surprised how natural it feels to use! I am Considering one for my left hand aswell since regular wrist rests are a little uncomfortable for me, does someone here have some expierence with that?
they have 360hz 1440p 27 qd oled panels coming from samsung next year. the native pixel response time of oled will likely mean a 360hz oled will be similar or faster responding compared to a 500hz tn with the added bonus of much better picture quality and contrast.
just for accuracy, the monitor size is 24.1 inch, so a tiny bit smaller than 24.5, thought this might be useful for those looking into the specifics.
Never knew this channel existed but this dude is one of the best momitor reviewers already in my eyes after just watching this one review. Really good stuff!
Rhythm games. That is another thing this would be good for, DJMAX, EZ2ON are two I play and I use a 360hz monitor for them, don't think a 540 would matter too much tbh but there are more games than just the ones you mentioned. OSU Mania maybe ( I don't like it so don't know how much FPS they allow up to ), Etterna and more. This is 100% a niche product but its awesome to see them pushing for more stuff like this.
Personally I think grasping for higher refresh rates on rhythm games is a bit of a red herring. Just in terms of peripherals, I think low latency controls make a bigger difference and no one seems to be talking about the role low latency audio has in keysounded games. The Presonus Quantum series of Thunderbolt interfaces boasts sub-millisecond latency. I love to know if it makes any difference in EZ2ON, which already has industry leading audio latency, but I'm not about to throw down $700 to find out.
@@yahooeny Its a red herring to chase FPS full stop tbh.
@@lilpain1997 ehhhhhhhh it's important to a point. look. the monitor on the IIDX Lightning Model is objectively bad. TN, ghosts like a motherfucker. Doesn't matter, the jump from 60 to 120fps was a game changer. We are getting 12 MAXs now. That did not happen before.

Such a damn informative video. I had to subscribe brother.
for fortnite you should've used preformance mode in the rendering mode section instead of the low preset as the majority of people that play it run it on preformance mode to squeeze out as many frames as possible
I can confirm I use the Carpio G 2.0 (G standing for gamer I'm pretty sure) and it has a rubber strap instead of just being a free wrist support like the 2.0. I personally love the G 2.0 as it helps me when editing or when I'm playing an extremely high APM game (RoR2 with huntress or mercenary). With valorant it's a bit tough but my wrist issues have gone down tremendously since buying the G 2.0 so I don't need it for everything anymore. HIGHLY recommend. I have also bought third party 3D printed wrist supports on amazon and they do not work the same at all. They feel either too stiff or don't support my hand as well. Highly recommend just buying the Carpio :)
Interesting... Will buy one for myself.
@@Valorshine see for yourself brotha. Trust me carpal tunnel will be in the past after buying it. I might even review it soon on my channel

14:10 how the hell is OLED worse in motion blur where it has a g2g response time of 0.03ms ????
Great question! G2G response times have everything to do with how fast the monitor transitions from one frame to the next. What it looks like with lower G2G is that you can still see the previous frame exiting while the new frame is drawing in - that's Ghosting, not Motion Blur. In other words, G2G doesn't have a lot to do with motion blur.
Motion Blur is when you eyes are tracking a moving target on screen and its why we test with a camera moving at the same rate as a moving target - to simulate what your eyes would do. The only way to reduce motion blur is to 1) increase refresh rate or 2) employ a backlight strobing technique to reduce the visual effects of "sample and hold".
In this particular statement, I'm comparing two monitors with *very* impressive backlight strobing tech to OLED panels which lack backlight strobing bc their max brightness isn't enough to utilize strobing.
If you compare these two monitors with their strobing turned off, then the OLED would look similar in terms of motion blur. You can check out Blur Busters for in-depth explainers of sample and hold if you want to dig deeper.
@@badseedtech thanks for the response
I’ve heard that oled are by nature better so if you get 120hz oled it’s like you got 240hz on another panel as far as input lag and ghosting and motion blur is concerned
I don’t recall the exact numbers so the numbers are just made up but , the idea is a lower oled is better than a higher refresh tn or ips panel
They’re only objectively better in G2G response times (ghosting) and contrast ratio. If you’re measuring *only* G2G then yes, its safe to say that a lower fps oled would perform “better” than a higher fps ips or tn - but thats misleading and definitely doesn’t tell the whole story.
That said, if you’re not playing sweaty FPS and motion clarity isn’t your main concern, go OLED.
@@badseedtech I’ve got the oled g9 but the thing is it feels like I need 2 monitors these days
One for sweaty FPS games and one for story narrative games
Isn’t there something that is all rounder option one monitor for all use cases ? Don’t want to limit myself to one genre of games
7800x3D is a must surely.
Bout to find out lol
@@badseedtechdid u get that 7800x3d
7800x3D is definitely required and it hits 540hz on most eSports games on a 4060.
Just to note, rainbow six is my main game and the benchmark compared to in game is drastically different. I get 600 in benchmark and in game I sit around 340 - 450 (depending on what operators are being played).
try out osu where i got 1000 fps with a vega 64. there a 540hz monitor will be noticed the most, its also the only game in which i notice a change from 240hz to 360hz
You should see if you can get your hands on the two new oled Alienware monitors coming out next month for review. One is 4k 32" 240Hz, and the other is QHD 27" 360Hz.
He should but I really doubt they're coming next month. It'll be for preorder only Id bet. I wonder who will launch first between them and Samsung who have at least confirmed their versions are in production.
Great video!! keep'em coming chief!
Thanks for the review. Just a point. RAM is proven to be very important for 1080p when GPU is under-utilised. Your CPU is also under utilised and that’s because of the RAM. Running ddr4 here doesn’t make this monitor review justice as I’m sure if you were running high speed DDR5 (~7000Mhz) kits you would see much higher results across the board, upwards of around 10-20% in some cases or even more I’m sure. Don’t neglect the importance of RAM these days. I run CS2 on 1440p with a 4090, 13900k and DDR5@6000Mhz and run consistently above 500 fps, often in the 6-700s. I just ordered this monitor to try out some gameplay in CS2, overwatch, warzone etc.
It's monitors like this and all the new GPU's that have me scratching my head everytime I go into PC Graphic settings on a video game to find V-Sync Ticked ON. lol one of the first things I uncheck these days...and then motion blur right after. Stellar vid as always!
It was hard to decide between the ASUS ROG Swift Pro PG248QP 540hz TN with 1080p and ASUS ROG Swift PG27AQN 360hz IPS with 1440p… I went with the PG27AQN and I’m really impressed. Great review, thank you.
Oh definitely. IPS > TN, 1440p > 1080p. I wouldn't take 540hz over 360hz with those downsides.
Wise choice my man
@@khonjel_singhI actually bought pg27uqr thats 4k160hz to accommodate my rtx 4080
@@badseedtech Based on your experience you think i should return the PG27AQN and wait for January? When the new generation of oled 360hz drops? I’m just wondering if the motion blur technology will catch up…
@@formidable2368 no way to call it yet, but I'll be among the first to have access to the next gen OLED. Thing with any background strobed tech is that the brightness gets impacted severely just by turning it on. I would honestly be really surprised if the next gen OLEDs had enough brightness to implement any tech like ULMB2 or DyAc.
if you are having wrist issues I urge you to do hand stretching exercises at least 2-3 times every session(2-3hours) and also if you add pull ups and dead hangs the problem will be gone forever.
I will try this in my play.
Such great videos as usual! Thanks for the advice
nice finally a new monitor video!
could you review the Innocn 27G1S? its a 27ich 1440p 240hz monitor for 300$ and every review i found says it can easily be on par or surpass ips/tn panels in clarity and motion handling without the typical black level smearing. but i think the most reviews are probably bought... would be amazing to have a trusted reviewer check it out!
I'll see whats up with it. I need to get a budget/mid tier monitor round up set for spring bc these new flagship panels are insanely expensive.
I just got a Asus TUF 260Hz 1440p IPS monitor for $400.
I bought innocn 27g1s recently and I had some doubts as well with other reviews at first but I bought it anyway and I can confirm it has really good motion handling and clarity out of 8 gaming monitors I've used till now which includes tn and ips monitor. Colors and contrast are really good as well. Panel is bright enough. The only downside is viewing angle looks bit washed out but not too bad. Black smearing is non existent as well. I'm getting more headshot and kills in cod mw3 with this monitor compared to my old gaming monitors.
Some people also reported to have flickering and artifacts with innocn 27g1s while turning on adaptive sync but it isn't the issue at least in my unit.
A note about Siege, It's one of my primary games and on both my systems, I can maintain above 540 fps pretty much all the time so I jumped on this monitor as soon as I could find it available.
Fast forward to actually getting it and testing it, Siege doesnt even support 540hz... Or 500. Or anything in the 400s or even 390. The game stops support at 360hz and a brief trip around R6FIX and reddit indicates that the developers of the game dont plan on supporting anything above 360hz. The quote on this was from about a year ago but from what I can tell, nothing's changed.
When youre in-game, you can SET the refresh rate to 540hz but it will always revert back to 360hz as soon as you leave the display tab. You can double check/confirm this via the monitor's built in display that shows what refresh rate it's actually running.
Super disappointing, because yeah, This is one of the very few games out there that I can consistently run 500+ all the time (14900K/4090/7600 DDR5/Intel APO system and 7800X3D/7900XTX) on this game specifically.
I also own the PG27AQN and find myself running that instead!
Good looking out. Appreciate the info!
One slight caveat to this is you can get around the "non-support" of 540hz or anything above 360hz by playing in borderless windowed mode. It will run at 540hz there but is incompatible in fullscreen exclusive for some awful, unknown reason. @@badseedtech
yeah i can confirm this is true. i own the pg248qp and when u switch to 500hz in game settings, it reverts to 360hz. Its really disappointing. This is the only game i play. @badseedtech
The Carpio's are nice, but I'd also recommend getting a Logitech MX Vertical. Being in IT - on a computer for 8+ hours a day - it's been a WRISTsaver. Think of it like when you put your arms down on the table. You're not putting your hands down, you're putting the side of your wrist down, which is where the logitech slots nicely. No twisting necessary in the forearm to hold your mouse is nice to have.
Thanks for the insightful review, mate. I also envy your beard/barber magic. Cheers!
What should pulse offset be at?
I got hyped when you said it is a TN panel. i dont like IPS or VA or OLED at all. I play games wich dont take much to run. So this monitor would be great for smooth gameplay at 540Hz. I think it is funny how people allways forget that there is other games than the mainstream games cuz there is thousands of games that will run way above 540hz . But the price is to high. Might wait a year or two and hope the price drops
Lol why did you get hyped at the worst looking display type by far when up until now the only other notable offering (the zowie) still had moderately SLOWER response times than the 1440p IPS 360hz from asus?
@@Frozoken I had to check my house for cameras in case i was being pranked. Because in the first part of my comment i said why i got hyped over TN. IPS VA and OLED i just dont like them at all.

Good video! Also what am i missing? i have this monitor but i cant have ULMB2 and OD switched On at the same time, is it by design?
You sold me on the audeze Maxwell and now I’m here to work on my pc since I love the Maxwell on ps5 :)
i really value your opinion, and im wondering at the moment where i should look or ask for advice on acoustic wall panels. are they all foam? do you have brands or design that you recommend? im looking to get black ones unless i was gonna throw an odd color or two if i decided to go with hexagon shapes. i like the ones that kinda look like faux bricks. or ones that have low profile with line designs inside of them. theres so many options i really dont know for sure, i have a hard time with decisions. i saw yours in the background and i like those as well....any advice you have would be appreciated. i struggle with design choices....brands?.....and how many of them i would need like if i should just do a few and have them set up to be more visually pleasing or if i should do from like the half way point in the wall or a little higher and go down to the floor. Or if i should just cover my entire wall behind my desk with them, if that would have better performance. also becuase i kinda have a crappy old white paintjob on my walls that would be difficult to repaint any time soon (so im definately going for a Black/White color scheme), so covering as much as i can of the wall would give my apartment a major uplift. They definitely serve a purpose though as i have a neighbor behind my desk wall and she cant stand my speakers of volume levels at all....which puts a major damper on my hobby of editing and remixing music.
any advice or help would be greatly appreciated, i know you take audio pretty seriously so i cant think of a better person to ask....
edit: i should also add that i have some govee glide hexagon pro panels and also a couple boxes of their Y Lights that im hoping to incorporate into the whole look to also go along with my Yellowpop neon user name light that i want to keep placed around the area above my monitors, so im wondering if i will have a hard time trying to stick these things on top of acooustic panels or if i should just try to go around them with the panels. i feel like going around them would make a panel design a lot more difficult to figure out as i obviously dont want the wall to look goofy.
I have this monitor. My system is:
CPU: 5800x3d
RAM 32GB 3200Mhz 14 timings
GPU RTX 3090
Honestly I mainly play Apex at 240fps, and I'd say if you can afford this monitor it's worth it, I know everyone will have their own opinion, but in terms of motion clarity it's just amazing. I came from a 240hz monitor and only bought this one due to the 240hz dying. My goal was "Ride this monitor out another 3 - 5 years and then upgrade to OLED once the tech has gotten there, and once 4k may be able to hit current 1080p frame rates" I just really can't say enough good things about it. It was everything I was wanting it to be.
You going to review the Astro a50x. If so looking forward against the stealth
Yeah that optimum guy is cracked for sure. I tried the 480 OLED and the 540 TN for about 2 weeks each before returning them and buying a 360 qd oled. I did probably 100 blind tests between 360 and 480 and 360 and 540 and I could not consistently tell a difference.
I bought the xl2566k 5 months ago. Ive only used it for maybe 6 hours. Been trying to sell it but im going to take such a loss on it. So its being used as a secondary monitor now.
I'm in the same spot right now. I've had mine listed at $350 for months and not even one person has messaged me about it.
I won't guarantee it, but I'm building a new PC and I'll need a 360hz monitor, who knows, maybe I'll negotiate it with you by then. Send me the ad link. 👍🏼
Great review. I bought the same monitor few days ago but after only 2 days of use I noticed it developed some weird dark spots in the middle of the screen. These are visible when I'm displaying a black background and slightly on gray, not visible on other colors. Could you please check yours and let me know if you are having the same issue?
For mw3 wouldn’t it be beneficial to use frame generation for this monitor
It is, and I do. I don’t understand how everyone keeps missing this.
Nah, I dont run frame gen for competitive bc of the hit to input latency. I’ll take lower frames and lower latency. Single player is a different story, but never in competitive.
There must be a problem with your rig, I have no issues running Overwatch at 480+ average ultra textures on a 3080 10GB and 12700k, DDR5 manually tuned to 7800mhz.
And yes, everything for me is manually overclocked to the max, but there's no way I should catch up to your rig. DDR4 4100mhz+ should be near my performance level.
Im thinking memory speed has a lot to do with it. I have a weird motherboard that dropped when the 12900k did but still supported DDR4 bc the early DDR5 was still wip. Gonna rebuild in a couple weeks with a 7800x3d and some DDR5 and revisit

I've been a gamer all my life, PC and Console, but now I am strictly PC. Played diablo games as a kid as young as like 6. Wrist issues are something that I am SO thankful I have never encountered yet, but is on my mind because I don't know what I would do if I had to stop playing because of it.
My biggest concern, I'm a wrist gamer, I don't really use my whole arm. Do you think the Carpio is still something I should look into, or in your experience with it it's more of an arm gamer type of thing?
It's more a wrist gamer type of thing. I'd switch to a lower sense if I were you, you'll perform better aswell
So it helps you engage your whole arm and *not* depend so much on your wrist. But even if you choose to keep wrist aiming, it will probably still help loads just having it elevated. For productivity its a godsend bc - especially wehn doing thumbnails and photoshop work I have a trigger depressed a lot so there's constant tension on the wrist joint while I'm moving it and that smokes it fast. It will take some getting used to if you're primarily a wrist aimer and you intend to keep wrist aiming. But it will probably benefit you in the long run. Personally, I wish I would have found it *before* I started having wrist issues.

How silly it is hearing about unoptimized PCs not being able to hit 540fps consistently. This video is a prime example on why tuning your RAM subtimings, voltages and Windows is so important. On my 7800x3d, I can hit 540fps consistently in OW2 at 1440p (competitive settings) and hold it at 540 no matter what. In Valorant, I can hold the same 540fps lock at 1440p. Oh and btw, I can do it whether I use a 4060ti or a 4090, since it's all CPU/RAM. Please please please people, learn about this.
People who are in the market for this type of monitor know this. Even alot of enthusiast level buyers wont care to spend the dozens of hours to max it out like that. Almost no one wants to trade stability for that
And also you arent getting 540fps on any game with a 4060ti man. Maybe at 720p with dlss but no way anyone is going to those lengths. CPU bottleneck on a 4090 doesnt mean you can get the same framerate on a lower end card dude thats not how that works
Also, you are using a CPU that performs better in certain games and you are running DDR5 also both of which he talked about in the video. I feel like you just commented to brag about your 540fps and the 100 hours you spend combing through every ship manifest for the library of Alexandria to gain 5 more fps and the 6400 runs of aida64 and memtest you ran you get your system stable. Did you get your bios title screen tattoo’d on your forearm?
@@absolutelysobeast I have a 4060ti that my gf used and I tested it throughly, my fps was 20 lower on average. 500 lock is easily possible with competitive settings because you’re still under 90% GPU utilization.
Also, with a 7800x3d all I had to do was set up PBO -25 curve all cores, and then spend about 1 hour tweaking voltages and timings. I’m just at 6000mhz DDR5, my stability is guaranteed because I’m not doing anything that crazy, so I’ve been fine for 4 months. It’s not as complex as some people think, and it’s cheaper than his 13900k with DDR4 combo for more fps in basically every single esport title and most AAA titles as well.

It reminds me of the first 300 hertz monitors when they first came out, now we got 360 hertz 1440p with good colors and some games that can play it.
Also, you can't have HDMI 2.1 and a GSYNC module. That's not Asus fault, it's Nvidia's for having such an outdated Gsync module.

Sir, it's finally a good time to upgrade to DDR5. I'd recommend the Asrock Z790 Nova WiFi with GSkill F5-6000J3636F32GX2-TZ5RK
Oh my god that gpu is incredible. The price matches the wow factor but damn that’s the first time I’ve seen an after market card that actually seems worth a hefty premium over a founders. If I was going for some sort of no compromise build, that would be the pick 100%. Also great monitor, but I just switched from the Alienware aw2523hf (1080p 360hz) to the ASUS xg27aqmr (300hz 1440p) and I think it’s a much more balanced experience. Having been on 1440p since 2016 or so, the switch to 1080 was rough for everything but competitive games. It’s becoming a weird niche in 2023.
be look at these two monitor for a while now i still do not know what to go with coming from a 360hz 1080p do i got to 27 1440p 360 or jump to 540 at 1080p
7800x3d would help close up some of these 1% lows
yo when you doing an corsair m75 air review
There's something wrong with how your CPU performs on COD. I get pretty much identical numbers with my 5600X.
Usually changing the RendererWorkerCount value in the config to something close to your core count can squeeze out a decent amount of performance but your 13900K should be reaching 400+fps so it can't be just that.
For PUBG, testing a big city would be more beneficial as it affects the GPU the most.
With a 4090 on 1080p low you're lucky to get 300 fps while being in a major city like georgopol or yasnaya. Fighting there is pretty demanding on the GPU and you always run into a cpu bottleneck.
I recently bought Zowie and I don’t regret it even going from a 27 inch 1440p 144hz monitor.
may i know what games do you play
@@asahisaiba1072 just overwatch 2
Can thunderbolt 4 or usbc to dp even do 540hz on my 4090 laptop?
Turn frame gen on in mwIII. I get 540 fps in cod with a 5800x3d and a 4090. It bumps my total system input lag from 6-7ms up to 11-13ms but the motion clarity is worth it and the input lag isn’t really noticeable. 540hz is something to behold for movment men.
That's pretty terrible
Frame gen makes motion clarity worse wtf
@@omegaPhix more fps = more motion clarity.
@@Haunteral not interpolated fps
@@omegaPhix go read some more blurbusters. You’ll figure it out.
I used it for several days, the image problem is not caused by the resolution but by the poor quality coating which adds a multitude of shiny parasitic effects, to judge for yourself, you can do the experience and reproduce this effect on your current monitor by placing a wet finger, this is really the major fault of this monitor, I hope that the origin of the problem is not the liquid crystal pixels of the AUO panel otherwise Zowie XL2586X and Acer XV242F will have this same problem
can this Monitor good for my pc spec build AM5 AMD b650 mother board Ryzen5 7600x AMD Radeon RX6800 32 DDR5 1 TBSSD Please repply
Brother, that shit is wild!!
Should of done the tests on a ryzen 7000 x3d pushes alot more fps on 1080p
What is the best 1080p 360hz monitor option?
Probably the xl2566k+ or non + version
How many hz getting on COD n what gpu
We gotta wait for like 2 generations before 540hz is even worth considering at this point
This video just serves to highlights the absolute ridiculousness of the monitor & that 4090. Great entertainment as always.
Had zowie 360hz but bought this monitor last month beautiful love it anyone knows how to go yo service menu?
Even at lower fps like 60fps and 120fps gaming such as consoles, its response time is an unbelievably 2.5ms.
16.7ms / 8.3ms VS 2.5ms.
So fighting games, GTA 5, PS5/Xbox players will hugely benefit from that eTN panel unbelievable speed.
Visual beauty? ❌️
Winning in multiplayer?✅️
I mean, i am getting an 4090 pc next week.. and i will be playing 24 inch 1080 yes i know sounds stupid but i want 4090 for my Vr sim racing that i do next to comp fps. And yes i play low settings for max fps. And my main games are literally cs:go valorant and rainbow six siege. So i guess this for me would be amezing right.
