    I'm waiting for the review of the gigabyte m27q-x monitor, great video.

    • @PCMonitors

      No plans to review that one currently. They've discontinued it and are launching a Rev 2.0 which will be a bit different, whether we'll look at it depends on price and availability.

    Have you noticed that the “aim stabilizer” isn’t actually black frame insertion, but is actually a red frame?
    I measured it with my phone at 240fps and adjusted exposure to make sure I wasn’t tripping.
    I legitimately get red frames, and I get red and green streaking in motion.
    Is this a defect with my particular M27U, or is this something you can see as well?
    Please measure this as soon as possible and tell me/show results if you can. Thank you!

      It's technically neither if you go by the traditional meaning of "black frame insertion" which uses software to insert a black frame. The backlight strobes off then comes back on at a frequency matching the refresh rate of the display. This is covered in the review, as is the slow decay of the KSF (red) phosphors of the backlight which causes the issue. It's very common on wide gamut models with strobe backlights unless they use a QD solution instead to achieve their wide gamut.

      @@PCMonitorsThank you for the quick response and thorough information.
      You’ve definitely earned a follower for that!
      If I am picking everything up correctly, the red decay is due to the backlight/color filter method, and only a panel without that tech to widen the color gamut, or otherwise a QD-LED panel would not suffer from this when using backlight strobing.
      Correct me if I am wrong.
      And if I am looking for a 2K-4K 27-32” panel with high refresh (min 120Hz) and backlight strobing that works with VRR and doesn’t suffer from the red decaying effect, and otherwise has comparable motion response to the M27U out of the box… is there anything you can suggest, or am I eating the feature and maintaining the M27U without the Aim Stabilizer, or otherwise jumping to OLED and nothing in between?

      @@waynejr.6763 Your understanding is correct. The BenQ EX3210U comes to mind. It's not quite as responsive as the M27U during 'normal operation', but not bad. And it has a pretty decent strobe backlight implementation plus uses a QD LED backlight. So it avoids the weird red flashes or fringing - pcmonitors.info/reviews/benq-ex3210u/#Responsiveness.

      ⁠​⁠@@PCMonitorsSir. You have made me do a lot of reading and using my brain and I appreciate it.
      To give you some context, I am upgrading from an Acer XB271HU, which I had gotten a good while ago as an early adopter of Gsync when VRR was rather new to consumer gamers.
      I had found over a year ago that the benefits of VRR @165Hz which I had paid such a premium for at the time, had not matched the functional value of low motion blur when I used the backlight strobing or “ULMB” at a fixed 120Hz refresh rate.
      I got the Gigabyte M27U as an upgrade after much speculation of it having both VRR and backlight strobing combined, and that it was over-all an improvement for color accuracy, brightness, color transition response and input delay.
      Now, I definitely notice all of those benefits, and 4K has a lot of upsides that I now don’t want to concede on, however I was disappointed with both the perceived color artifacts in motion when my eyes would track with Aim Stabilizer on, and how some games would have a noticeable backlight flicker, even with rather consistent higher frame-rates.
      That said, after reading your review on the BenQ you suggested, I saw you mentioned the flicker could be an issue with that monitor as well.
      So now I am resolved to find either a high refresh 4K LED panel that can do fixed rate backlight strobing without visible decay artifacts that performs closer in response times to the Gigabyte,
      or get/wait for a 2K-4K OLED panel that doesn’t have text fringing (such as the Samsung panels using the triangular RGB layout), since the OLED doesn’t require BFI as far as I’m concerned.
      You’ve afforded more time and effort than most would be willing to shed knowledge.
      If you don’t have something that immediately comes to mind, I’m gonna run with the current pretense and hunt for the best option.
      I’m starting to think I should stick with my old panel, even with its limitations, and wait for a 4K LG made OLED that makes all of this squandering irrelevant.
      I mean, hell, if it’s an OLED I can extend my budget out to $1k~ for all I care… I really am just looking for the best option.

    What are u using the custom 1 settings for? just regular use or gaming? I just got this monitor and for me brightness 30 is very dark, i use 60-70. But when play rdr2 on ps5 i felt like i needed to turn it up to 100 or increase black equalizer.

    • @PCMonitors

      As noted in the video they form the 'Test Settings' which are used in the review. But you need to make your own adjustments according to your own unit and preferences. Especially when it comes to things like brightness, which depends on lighting as well.

      No and most people I've engaged with about this monitor find it comfortable. There are many factors affecting viewing comfort and it's an individual thing - pcmonitors.info/articles/factors-influencing-pc-monitor-viewing-comfort/. It can take a while to adapt to a monitor that's very different to your last one. Reducing brightness as much as possible, regulating lighting environment and ensuring you're using an appropriate level of scaling (if required) is also important.
