On PC you can adjust these settings to get 240hz: ruclips.net/video/dMCbb-n3b0A/видео.html PS5 would cap you at 120 if your title supports it! We are working on videos to show how to make sure you have it seutp!
They have their own adaptive sync which works like free sync and in regards to the series X you will be capped at 1080/120 so 240hz is overkill and not able to reach its full potential on the console. So it would be better for a PC where you can achieve those top specs but nothing wrong with using it on Xbox!
I will keep this in mind! We don't have any plans but we get that request pretty frequently for curved monitors. What are you concerned about vs typical flat screen wall mount?

VA Panel! You know the ghosting/smearing will be present on this panel at least in our experience. I would recommend buying and trying but being prepared to return if needed!
It defiantly has mixed reviews on ghosting so I always recommend buying whatever monitor you are interested in and trying it right away. Then you can decided within your return window if it will work for you!
Sceptre makes really affordable monitors for the price. If you are going competitive you would probably appreciate another though from Samsung, LG, ASUS etc!
@@user-eu1ob9zd3u it’s pretty annoying. When i play fps games there’s a slight color orientation when moving a lot. It’s tolerable but still annoying. for other games such as The binding of Isaac for example, the ghosting is horrible and unplayable for me.
Monitor ghosting is when an image appears to be double or triple on the screen of your laptop, computer monitor, or television set. This is caused by a mismatch between the video signal and the display's internal processing, resulting in a blurring of images as they are displayed.
Great question... I don't know where our ghosting scene went in this edit lol we usually have one right after the UFO test. Ghosting will be present (as it is on just about every budget monitor) but I would say its avg and not terrible or anything... always recommend buying and trying for yourself (we all have different tolerances) and making sure to figure it out before your return window closes!

i Really like the video and the test you do but you shuold change the games you test to Apex, Valorant,Fornite,Rainbow 6 I love the color test , ufo, the monitor stand and most of all input lag
Just RDR2? If its all games then most likely that is not something you can change and it probably isn't the right monitor for you. You can try to enable freesync or gsync, turn on elmb settings etc. Make sure you have DisplayPort and highest refresh rate possible. Try a gaming mode(s) as well.
is there anyway to change the resolution from 1920x1080 to lower resolution? When i try to change it on my computer it says the active signal resoultion is still 1920x1080 although i changed it to 1400x900 in my pc settings
