The 'X' model also includes a second HDMI 2.0 port and 2 x 2W speakers. Plus lacks any red accents (including at the rear). It also has a reworked OSD and features MPRT Sync (Adaptive-Sync + strobe backlight simultaneously).
My good old BenQ XL2411Z which is a 24" 1080p 144Hz TN monitor costed me around 250€ in 2015 and it can only be plugged with a DVI-D cable or else it will run at 60Hz with HDMI. It's really great to see how cheap 1080p monitors that run at 144Hz or higher have become especially since now they are using IPS or VA panels instead of TN panels.
Thanks for this. My 2nd monitor purchase was based on this review and cost. Good thing this is already available in our local market. Appreciate this review, keep it up!
I got the 24G2 because of your review which I still use to this day. No regrets with the purchase. These days, I'm looking for an ultra-wide for better productivity.
@@peterpanda7475 No I have not. When I was looking around, the models that I liked were already discontinued and it seems IPS ultrawides aren't in circulation anymore or at least not in my region unfortunately. There are many ultrawides with VA panels, but I'd rather not switch to those. I still prefer IPS.
@@kinggoat- it’s working great. I’ve had no issue with it and personally it’s a huge step up from the monitor I had before. The colours are very vibrant and the image quality on it is great, the 180hz refresh rate is amazing and a huge step up from my 60hz monitor. Overall it’s just really good. I guess the only downside is that sometimes when there is a lot of light in the room the viewing angles are pretty limited but that’s pretty much just where my current setup is located. In short it’s an amazing monitor for the price.
@@kinggoat- yeah you do get a dp cable with the monitor thankfully. I’ve also got an amd gpu and the monitor does support amd freesync. In the monitors settings it’s called adaptive sync it works great and so far. You also have to enable adaptive sync for your gpu within the amd software.
AOC have been killing it in the monitor space for budget monitors. I had a 24G2 back when I didn't have enough money to get anything higher end, its sadly now dead but it got a ton of use and I recommended it to my friends who were all on budgets as well. Gave my brother a 165hz IPS AOC one as well ( can't remember the name exactly but it was great ) for like £180, and recently got my brother the AOC q27g3xmn for good budget HDR and I have been impressed with how good it is despite the low Zone count. I notice the lower highlights compared to my AW3423DW but you quickly get used to it and I quickly realise how much it cost. Its always nice to see amazing budget monitors and the market shift.
how old is it before it's dead? reading about broken monitors feels ridiculous to me since my LG monitor is almost 12 years old and still works perfectly
AOC 24G2 is still going strong. I hope you can review some of the 24" 1080p 100Hz monitors that started to appear recently, they seem like great option for gamers on very tight budget.
100hz is still not the smoothest refresh rate for gaming compared to standard 75hz, but still good enough to see a lot of smooth animations and movements on your daily tasks. Something like the new viewsonic va2432 (both black and white body), good response time and while it only covers sRGB color space it still gives a good color accuracy of ~6 on dE ITP or ~2 on dE 2000 But make sure you didn't pay above $100.
I consider 180Hz a huge improvement over 165Hz, simply because when divided by 60 it produces integer result (3). This is important, because most video content (YT videos for example) is in 60 or 30Hz. On 165Hz or 144Hz monitors, if you don't specifically switch to 120 or 60Hz, you'll get uneven framepacing on videos and movies (resulting in some amount of jerkiness, which some people don't usually notice probably, but sadly I'm the one that does and hates it wholehearedly). With a 180Hz monitor you can forever forget about the annoyance of having to switch between refresh rates depending on what you're doing. Of course, 240Hz would be even better, because when divided by 24 it produces integer result - and most movies are in 24Hz. So you still have to switch to 120Hz to watch movies.
@@whatistruth_1 Does YT even support VRR for video playback? When I looked into it a couple of years ago, I couldn't find any evidence of such possibility, and neither of my VRR monitors do VRR with YT videos. Although VRR does indeed seem like an ideal solution, if it was implemented.

I have a problem with white color and kinda weird view angles, but what triggers me the most is that the white color here looks more pinkish,grayish or bluish, depends when u look. When i look on things like blue + white/gray things, like sky or some buildings, it looks more purple/pinkish. Even if i try to change colors a bit it doesn't really help much. Can u compare white color with your phone or something and see did u have same feeling? I ordered this one and gigabyte g24f 2 that's why i can clearly compare close to close.@@YasserS19

Thanks HWUB, was looking for a budget 1080p for a friend's child and went to your best monitors for 2024 and this one popped. Bought it based on your recommendation and child is delighted with the upgrade compared to their previous non-gaming 60hz display. Nice to trust your recommendation instead of having to sink hours into reading comparisons.
i recently bought the monitor and also have 2nd one iiyama G2445HSU what i can say? 1. AoC have terrible wieving angles 2:08 in the video, than iiyama you see alot of discoloration on the edges of AoC screen so the further away u look at monitor the better. 2. AoC use PFS(red phosphor) Iluminofor with LED which give wider color gamut and more shades of red, if you switch from other monitor the images on screen might look red/pink for you, give it one week to adjust i would add to achieve D65 white(6500K) which i use you need set Gamma for 2.2, red 50 green 46 and blue 44. Becouse it uses PFS the MBR just not working good there leavinbg red ghosting cause it take more time for iluminofor the decay the light, but tis avaiable if you need or like it.
The very first monitor I purchased was from AOC, and it is still working after 10 years. I purchased a monitor from Samsung as an upgrade, but it didn't even last 3 years (I won't be buying from them again.). Seeing the quality of the AOC monitor I purchased and after watching your review, I replaced my busted Samsung monitor with an AOC 24G2SP last month, and so far I am very happy with my purchase.
How about the 1440p, 165Hz IPS 24" monitor AOC produced? AOC Q24G2A/BK. I bought it and it costs only about $200 in US. Little over 200 euros in Europe
Wow! I'm truly impressed. Looks like almost a straight upgrade to my LG 24GN60R. But the LG monitor has amazing backlight strobing, way better for me as a competitive player. IMO it makes Gigabyte G24F2 very much obsolete
This monitor is for sure the fastest 1080 IPS i had without having really low contrast and poor black at exchange. I tested AOC 24G2SPU,Iiyama 2470HSU and Gigabyte G24F 2 with this one. The thing is i have a irritating problem. Both AOC seems like having more trait into purple and pinkish colors, when deep blue is automtically more purple instead of blue. Like this 24G4X have a little problem with view angles, but it's not really a problem tho. The biggest problem in 24G4X white is more pinkish, when colors like deep blue is more purple. Sky or galaxy looks more purple than deep blue for example. It's really weird that they don't mention those details becuase no matter how u set it up. I tried settings like 42,50,48 and even changed gamma from 2.4 to 2.2 because imo 2.2 on this monitor looks too bright and 2.4 feels more "proper" for me at least. For sure it helped, but it's still noticable. The pure 50,50,50 looks terribly redish. AOC overall having that purple and pinkish trait, but comapring both AOC 24G4X and G2SPU, on 24G4X the pinkish/redish trait looks a lot more noticable and it feels like it a bit bleeding with it. That pinkish/redish trait is on especially gray and blue things, but not only. AOC 24G2SPU has noticibly better colors and doesn't have that weird pink trait on gray or other type of colors. It's just on 24G2SPU the whole panel seems like having more into purple colors than deep blue. I really don't understand what AOC did there or why this panel is like that. I wish it looked like G2SPU or close to it with response time of 24G4. Bro this is the hell of budget monitors. There is always something that will make you uncomfortable with it and u need to accept that issue. I would love to see them buying 24G4X one and test it again. Maybe 24G4 has different panel or adjusted differently in sneaky way?
Normal buttons instead of joystick are a great joy if you have multiple devices you use with the monitor, like your gaming computer and a work laptop. I don't change display settings too often, but do change sources quite a lot. And the joysticks on my secondary monitor is a terrible pain, so I switched to DDC/CI. Still would prefer normal buttons to assign inputs.
I find it hilarious that its harder to find a good 1080p monitor opposed to how easy it is to find a good 4k monitor. In my case 1080p is a choice, it gives a lot more life to my gpu since 1080p will be easier to carry into the future.
Same bro, actually 1440p monitors, there is tons of good ones and if u have money, u can just buy OLED 1440p one and don't give a fuck about anything. Some shops even give you option to get a guy who will calibarate it properly for you for extra 50$ or something. When u buy monitor like that then it's not that much. 1080p struggle of not having better manufactured options. I would even pay 250$+ for really good 1080p without exchanging one of 3 most important things like colors,contrast or response time as exchange.
Would love to get a HU review of the Q24G2AE/BK 24inch 1440p 165hz or the Koorui GP01 which I think uses the same panel. They seem like a good way to get a taste of higher PPI+higher refresh gaming at an entry level price.
My 24G2SP started acting up after using it for just a year. I sent it to their service center for a warranty claim and they replaced it with this brand-new 24G4. AOC earnestly has one of the best warranty services out there!🙌
AOC seems to have a very nice 27 inch 1440P screen on the way, claming 100% DCI-P3 coverage. the only thing is it doesn't seem to have height adjustable stand.
Watching with my 24G4 monitor that just arrived today. This is a brand new one, but I didn't buy it. It was a replacement for my 2yr old 24G2SP, which had some LCD issues. This is why I love AOC because of their 3yr warranty. Imagine using it for 2 years and now getting an upgrade from 165Hz to 180Hz with better specs.
It's hard deciding between a cheaper G2 vs newer more expensive G4. There should be a video on this as apparently the older model has better colors, viewing angles and brightness. I'm inclined to the G4 but only because it no longer has red accents that scream out !!GAMING MONITOR!! Besides the more professional look, the higher refresh rate is also a plus if you have the graphics card for it.
Guys I have this monitor now for 1 month, after 13 years I finally changed my 60hz one with this one. I was playing with 240hz monitor in internet cafe and this monitor can easily compete with it with 180hz medium/strong mode. 11/10 for this monitor and price rank!
If this monitor has low framerate compensation (LFR), then you could try moving the bottom part of the VSync range using CRU from 48 Hz or whatever is the default to 89 or 90. So, if you have a game that you play below or around 90 FPS, you can leave the Overdrive mode at Medium, since panel will be running at over 120 Hz when your FPS is at 60. Make sure you monitor doesn't flicker when transitioning from above or below 90. If so, then you could limit the in-game FPS at ~88 to prevent monitor from switching to 90 Hz instead of staying 170+.
There is an Acer Nitro KG251Q that’s 1080p 250 Hz with a retail price of $200 but frequently goes on sale for $150. Would be curious to see how it stacks up in this space.
I just bought this monitor and have almost zero knowledge of gaming monitors and wanted to connect it to my ps5. I know this is a big ask but is it possible you could tell me about the best settings for a ps5 and what settings I should turn on or off it would be greatly appreciated. also, great video super informative had no idea monitors were that in depth, thanks again🙂
Could you please review HKC MG24Q? 👀🙏 or maybe Koorui GP01? I heard that both are actually the same monitor, but not sure about the factory setting remain the same. Both are 24" 1440p display!!
please review acer vg272k v3... IPS , 160HZ , 4K 3840X2160P....the price is around 280USD in south east asian....same panel as xv272k v3...but the X series came with moveable stand
hello, sorry if i'm late but i use the 24E3 and it's great for its price aside from the blue and magenta color inaccuracy (most likely deliberate sabotage by HKC to not lose customers as a supplier) but if you don't do productivity/gfx related stuffs it's still a no brainer pick imo
I tried a 32 inch AOC 1440p 165 hz monitor about 4 months ago. Maybe I had a defective unit but, the screen looked really bad and since nothing I did changed it , I returned it.
Hello, please could you do a review on the LG 27GR75Q? This monitor is everywhere with massive discounts but noones buying it because there’s no information about it!
As far as I can tell this is the 1080p bang for buck especially with adjustable height stand (X version) in my country right now, well except for used monitors I guess, I don't have a VRR, higher then 60fps or wide gamut monitor so sounds good.
What's your opinion about this monitor and the viewsonic vx2428j? I'm totally confused between this one and viewsonic vx2428j, and i really don't know which one should i buy!
In a way, doesn't every stand included with every monitor support pivot? Even if it' just moving the whole stand on the desk? Do they really need to include a pivot axis if it's not attached to the desk? Surely they could save a buck or two off the costs with that....
I've ordered the 24G2SPAE and my eyes hurted a lot of the very high brightness (tested all possible parameters). Only solution was to have a very bright room. Could this monitor be the same ?
can you also test cheaper acer monitors? like the 100hz VA ones to see how bad they are exactly. they are often less than a 100 dollars so going up to 150 dollars for people in 3rd world countries can be a pretty big deal.
Try to look for asrock cl25ff. It's 100hz ips, so ghosting should be non issue. It often goes below 100 euros, very tempting price. One problem is the lack of displayport, so no g sync for Nvidia users.
question: if you have time, recommend me the best o-led (any will do) monitor for 1440p (gaming 240hz upwards with not that glossy look). will use it for gaming and 3d modeling. ty (I will use a 4080super with a 7800x3d)
Is this or the 27 inch variant a good companion to a game console like Xbox series X or PS5? Obviously the 4K version would be better, but at 5x price point it is not in range.

Imagine paying 600€ for a 6700XT when prices started going down again after covid madness... not that I'd ever do that... ahem
My good old BenQ XL2411Z which is a 24" 1080p 144Hz TN monitor costed me around 250€ in 2015 and it can only be plugged with a DVI-D cable or else it will run at 60Hz with HDMI.
It's really great to see how cheap 1080p monitors that run at 144Hz or higher have become especially since now they are using IPS or VA panels instead of TN panels.
144hz to 180hz isn't that big of a deal, but the price definitely is.
I remember when I spent $500 for 27" 1440p 144Hz on a TN panel.

This monitor is for sure the fastest 1080 IPS i had without having really low contrast and poor black at exchange. I tested AOC 24G2SPU,Iiyama 2470HSU and Gigabyte G24F 2 with this one.
The thing is i have a irritating problem. Both AOC seems like having more trait into purple and pinkish colors, when deep blue is automtically more purple instead of blue. Like this 24G4X have a little problem with view angles, but it's not really a problem tho. The biggest problem in 24G4X white is more pinkish, when colors like deep blue is more purple. Sky or galaxy looks more purple than deep blue for example. It's really weird that they don't mention those details becuase no matter how u set it up. I tried settings like 42,50,48 and even changed gamma from 2.4 to 2.2 because imo 2.2 on this monitor looks too bright and 2.4 feels more "proper" for me at least. For sure it helped, but it's still noticable. The pure 50,50,50 looks terribly redish. AOC overall having that purple and pinkish trait, but comapring both AOC 24G4X and G2SPU, on 24G4X the pinkish/redish trait looks a lot more noticable and it feels like it a bit bleeding with it. That pinkish/redish trait is on especially gray and blue things, but not only. AOC 24G2SPU has noticibly better colors and doesn't have that weird pink trait on gray or other type of colors. It's just on 24G2SPU the whole panel seems like having more into purple colors than deep blue.
I really don't understand what AOC did there or why this panel is like that. I wish it looked like G2SPU or close to it with response time of 24G4. Bro this is the hell of budget monitors. There is always something that will make you uncomfortable with it and u need to accept that issue. I would love to see them buying 24G4X one and test it again. Maybe 24G4 has different panel or adjusted differently in sneaky way?
Normal buttons instead of joystick are a great joy if you have multiple devices you use with the monitor, like your gaming computer and a work laptop. I don't change display settings too often, but do change sources quite a lot. And the joysticks on my secondary monitor is a terrible pain, so I switched to DDC/CI. Still would prefer normal buttons to assign inputs.
Any chance we get AOC Q27G4X review? It's really cheap, even in my country. Would like to see how it compares to LG 27GP850.
thank you for this amazing review Tim 🙂
THANK GOD THEY GOT RID OF THAT UGLY ASS RED LINE IT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS NOW
I find it hilarious that its harder to find a good 1080p monitor opposed to how easy it is to find a good 4k monitor. In my case 1080p is a choice, it gives a lot more life to my gpu since 1080p will be easier to carry into the future.
Same bro, actually 1440p monitors, there is tons of good ones and if u have money, u can just buy OLED 1440p one and don't give a fuck about anything. Some shops even give you option to get a guy who will calibarate it properly for you for extra 50$ or something. When u buy monitor like that then it's not that much.
1080p struggle of not having better manufactured options. I would even pay 250$+ for really good 1080p without exchanging one of 3 most important things like colors,contrast or response time as exchange.
Would love to get a HU review of the Q24G2AE/BK 24inch 1440p 165hz or the Koorui GP01 which I think uses the same panel. They seem like a good way to get a taste of higher PPI+higher refresh gaming at an entry level price.
Beautiful looking monitor. I went for the Benq EX2510 because its a premium monitor.... but this one looks very nice and the price is perfect
My 24G2SP started acting up after using it for just a year. I sent it to their service center for a warranty claim and they replaced it with this brand-new 24G4. AOC earnestly has one of the best warranty services out there!🙌
How u feel with AOC 24G4?
Lol I bought the 24G2 at random 4 years ago and it's apparently one of the best budget ones.
thank you for the review!
AOC seems to have a very nice 27 inch 1440P screen on the way, claming 100% DCI-P3 coverage. the only thing is it doesn't seem to have height adjustable stand.
Do you know what the model number is?
Watching with my 24G4 monitor that just arrived today. This is a brand new one, but I didn't buy it. It was a replacement for my 2yr old 24G2SP, which had some LCD issues. This is why I love AOC because of their 3yr warranty. Imagine using it for 2 years and now getting an upgrade from 165Hz to 180Hz with better specs.
Could you make a tutorial on how to calibrate different settings on monitors.
What do y think about AOC Q27G4X
You should review one of the Koorui monitors. Good budget monitors they have.
What are your thoughts on the Q27G4, basically the 1440p version of this monitor, or the higher resolution panel could have some improvements?
have u got it ???
Can you please review the Asus VG249Q3A? Specs seem to be similar to this monitor apart from the adjustable stand
What about the AOC 24G4XE? What are the differences?
Only stand is different afaik
It's hard deciding between a cheaper G2 vs newer more expensive G4. There should be a video on this as apparently the older model has better colors, viewing angles and brightness. I'm inclined to the G4 but only because it no longer has red accents that scream out !!GAMING MONITOR!!
Besides the more professional look, the higher refresh rate is also a plus if you have the graphics card for it.
Guys I have this monitor now for 1 month, after 13 years I finally changed my 60hz one with this one. I was playing with 240hz monitor in internet cafe and this monitor can easily compete with it with 180hz medium/strong mode. 11/10 for this monitor and price rank!
@@djsumke PC or console?
I have 2 AOC 24G2 right and left to my 34 Ultrawide and I use them for my Xbox/Switch really great value and I prefer 24 inches for gaming
the monitor is really good thanks for the video, gigabyte 24gf2 different offering but still good both are great choices
2725df review coming?
Would love your input.
Anyone else not able to find this on Amazon or NewEgg???
apparently, the monitor has only released in Oceania, not yet in the US
@@jfelipemolina7 😥😥Do we know when the US release is or have they not said anything yet.
If this monitor has low framerate compensation (LFR), then you could try moving the bottom part of the VSync range using CRU from 48 Hz or whatever is the default to 89 or 90.
So, if you have a game that you play below or around 90 FPS, you can leave the Overdrive mode at Medium, since panel will be running at over 120 Hz when your FPS is at 60.
Make sure you monitor doesn't flicker when transitioning from above or below 90. If so, then you could limit the in-game FPS at ~88 to prevent monitor from switching to 90 Hz instead of staying 170+.
I would love if u guys will test iiyama G-Master G2470HSU to compare over those budget monitors.
Apparently 24G4X/27G4X have MBR Sync unlike 24G4/27G4. Nice to see this feature on budget monitors. The X models have a redesigned OSD.
Isn't X just having better stand and different OSD? So X and normal version having same panel or not?
@@Berkelll Apparently not. I think its same panel.
Picked one up for $109 yesterday at Best Buy.
but is it better than benq's ex240? like Why are there no reviews on the benqs' best budget monitor.
seems hard to find tbh
what's the difference with 24G4XE?
There is an Acer Nitro KG251Q that’s 1080p 250 Hz with a retail price of $200 but frequently goes on sale for $150. Would be curious to see how it stacks up in this space.
Is this available in the US? I don’t see it anywhere😢
apparently, the monitor has only released in Oceania, not yet in the US
please share the best color settings
Could you do a review on AOC Q24g2a 1440p monitor? Since the 2k 24" gaming monitors are quite rare, thanks!
I just bought this monitor and have almost zero knowledge of gaming monitors and wanted to connect it to my ps5. I know this is a big ask but is it possible you could tell me about the best settings for a ps5 and what settings I should turn on or off it would be greatly appreciated. also, great video super informative had no idea monitors were that in depth, thanks again🙂
Is the monitor already available because I can't find it online
apparently, the monitor has only released in Oceania, not yet in the US
Is this monitor still good? Considering buying it for 2nd monitor as i found it for 100usd new
Bump.
yep Its great hdr's impressive too
@@cosmicheretic8129 .
could you test also Benq Mobiuz EX240N ?
Could you please review HKC MG24Q? 👀🙏
or maybe Koorui GP01? I heard that both are actually the same monitor, but not sure about the factory setting remain the same.
Both are 24" 1440p display!!
please review acer vg272k v3... IPS , 160HZ , 4K 3840X2160P....the price is around 280USD in south east asian....same panel as xv272k v3...but the X series came with moveable stand
Can you review the Koori 24" 165hz fast ips? Other reviewers say it's the best budget 1080p monitor on the market
hello, sorry if i'm late but i use the 24E3 and it's great for its price aside from the blue and magenta color inaccuracy (most likely deliberate sabotage by HKC to not lose customers as a supplier) but if you don't do productivity/gfx related stuffs it's still a no brainer pick imo
I tried a 32 inch AOC 1440p 165 hz monitor about 4 months ago. Maybe I had a defective unit but, the screen looked really bad and since nothing I did changed it , I returned it.
Steve my guy is it possible for you to to start adding in portable monitors for those of us who travel a lot
What willbe the best settings for this monitor for colour settings?
Hello, please could you do a review on the LG 27GR75Q? This monitor is everywhere with massive discounts but noones buying it because there’s no information about it!
what about the Q27G4N VA panel?
As far as I can tell this is the 1080p bang for buck especially with adjustable height stand (X version) in my country right now, well except for used monitors I guess, I don't have a VRR, higher then 60fps or wide gamut monitor so sounds good.
Almost 3 months after I purchased this monitor, the panel suddenly showed defects.
Should I choose this over the XG2431? I have the 24G2 and currently want to upgrade; would 180Hz enough for FPS gaming?
hi can please do a review for aoc u27g3x thanks 🙏
How good is HDR in this monitor? Im looking for a good value 1080p HDR monitor.
What's your opinion about this monitor and the viewsonic vx2428j? I'm totally confused between this one and viewsonic vx2428j, and i really don't know which one should i buy!
In a way, doesn't every stand included with every monitor support pivot? Even if it' just moving the whole stand on the desk? Do they really need to include a pivot axis if it's not attached to the desk? Surely they could save a buck or two off the costs with that....
I've ordered the 24G2SPAE and my eyes hurted a lot of the very high brightness (tested all possible parameters). Only solution was to have a very bright room. Could this monitor be the same ?
I've got a 2 year old AOC 144htz gaming monitor and on that one, never faced any issues.
can you also test cheaper acer monitors? like the 100hz VA ones to see how bad they are exactly. they are often less than a 100 dollars so going up to 150 dollars for people in 3rd world countries can be a pretty big deal.
Try to look for asrock cl25ff. It's 100hz ips, so ghosting should be non issue. It often goes below 100 euros, very tempting price. One problem is the lack of displayport, so no g sync for Nvidia users.
can you make a list of glossy panel monitors?
I think i would prefer the 24G2Sp for the extra brightness and better contrast for like a few % lower Rec 2020 coverage imo.
24g4x has better contrast. Or was reading wrong?
How does this compare to 25g3zm. Price is similar in Australia. 180hz vs 240hz, IPS vs VA.
what’s the recommended settings for this monitor and is there an icc profile
What are the recommended settings for this monitor?
question: if you have time, recommend me the best o-led (any will do) monitor for 1440p (gaming 240hz upwards with not that glossy look). will use it for gaming and 3d modeling. ty (I will use a 4080super with a 7800x3d)
is it a bad monitor for 120hz gaming? are there better ones for 24 inch ? in terms of response time
What about the Q24G2??????
Tim do you plan test Dell on IPS Black 120Hz?
Is this or the 27 inch variant a good companion to a game console like Xbox series X or PS5? Obviously the 4K version would be better, but at 5x price point it is not in range.
can you please share that icc profile.. i ve just got one and didn't like the factory calibration.. colors kinda on washed
just use srgb mode
@@bosiorne2292 srgb mode looks terrible in this monitor imo.
Is this gonna be alright for fps games (val and cs) ?
this one or the gigabyte G24F for xbox series S and PS5?
hi. did u get this one?
Any plans to do a review of the MAG 274QRF QD E2? Just got one!
