Looking for new monitor especially designed for FPS.

Hi
Does anyone of you is following the tech news?
I have to buy a new screen, but im not actually sure what do I want.
I'm looking for something that its made specially for FPS games (CS:GO).

I've done the reading, soo I came up with two models:
Older one, Asus VG248QE cheaper and seems fine enough for me (im also really asus rog fanboy)

But BenQ have also something to say, the review of BenQ XL2420TE just amazed me, im not sure if thats not a commercial trick, but im really excited. (Actually I want to buy "BenQ 24" 3D LED XL2420Z", but I couldnt find any useful and interesting videos, except unboxing to show.)



Maybe you could advice me a little, I'll order probably on of these in about 2 weeks, so we have some time to debate, or maybe you will clear my mind and come up with something better

 

I always test monitors with fighting games. If I can do combos the monitor is fine. I can't perform combos on monitors with bad input delay or response time despite it being all muscle memory, delay will throw me off. I haven't played FPS since CRT monitors were the standard so I can't really help you out on this. :/

 

both are great monitors and you cant go wrong with either purchase. go for w.e is cheaper. ive also heard news on a 1440p 120hz monitor by asus.

 

You gotta have a damn good machine to fully utilize that refresh rate with today's games. Response time is killer though.

 

I've built my gaming station like 8 months ago.
It's based on:
Asus Maximus VI Hero with i5 4670k 4.5Ghz CPU Cooled by Silverstone Tundra TD02, Corsair Dominator GT 2000mhz 12gb it's also enough for me to just play games and I've decided to take Corsair AX760i PSU to keep it stable. I had GTX 560 that Riot gave me as a prize for some contest last year, but it wasn't enough to keep me satisfied, so I have ordered GTX 770 DirectCU II, Any of my old hdd's couldnt deal with a quick start (It took ages to boot) so I ended up with a new Kingston HyperX 3k 120gb that was just released, now it takes like 20sec to restart pc + I have 4 old HDD's (6TB Total, already 3/4 space in use)
So probably this year im just going to change a graphic card and buy a new hdd.
P.S
After 10th of May im also going to order
TP-LINK Archer C7 AC1750

ASUS PCE-AC68 AC1900 Wireless Adapter

Because Last year when I have been in that Hotel (working) internet was breaking every 15min, so I couldnt even talk on skype.

Spoiler

 

TP-Link, yes indeed it is
AC or N standard ?
I was thinking about Asus AC66U, but I dont want to pay that much.
P.S
I'm looking forward to see a short review.

 

need one of these

 

are you a member of the master race? also that nicotine will gunk those fans up

 

thanks for comments, decided to buy 27' BenQ XL2720Z, its amazing. If anyone will read this thread, I totally recommend it. Same as TP Link Archer C7 & Asus AC68U Wi Fi Adapter, ordered also Cooler Master Trigger Z, amazing keyboard (Cherry MX Brown are fantastic, mechanical keyboards are really worth their price 5/5)



P.S
Now, I just need a new camera

 

Mechanical keyboards are definitely worth it although some are still very over priced. Earlier this year I switched to Cherry MX Reds and have never been more pleased with a keyboard. I feel like once you go mechanical, you never go back. I have typed on a couple regular keyboards after making the switch to mechanical and thought they felt absolutely disgusting. ;p

 

1080p at 27"! how can you stand that horrific pixel pitch?

 

Lol. It's not that bad.

 

Actually it's way more smooth, bright and sharp than any other monitors that I had.
I don't really know about pixels that you are talking about xd
Honestly 27' 1080p & max details in game, gave me terrific sensation, maybe it's just a placebo effect, but I play way better (won many more matches since I got it, than on 22' that I left in Poland), I can clearly see more.

 

All that matters is that you are pleased with what you have. Disregard the comment from the videophile.

 

It's not just me. No need for vitriol.

 

He enjoys it. Don't rain on his parade.

 

23 inch compared to 27 inch.

Difference ain't even that big!
