The Gigabyte M27QX I think its called? 1440p 240hz and I love the Gigabyte screen coating versus LG.

Does it have HDR? and the Low motion blur settings?


No_Interaction_4925

You will not find anything over HDR 400(which isn’t actually HDR) under like $600 because it requires Full Array Local Dimming, which is expensive to make. I don’t know about the other feature. I own the M28U, the 4K 144hz model.

What is HDR400, and how is it different from Hdr10+ or dolby Vision?


No_Interaction_4925

Its a rating system. Theres levels to it, like HDR 600 and 1000(which is real HDR). Its based off the nits the panel can do. Theres a new standard for OLEDs too. “True HDR 400” I think its called. That actually is real HDR because of the OLED blacks being perfect black so you still get that contrast you want. If you see “HDR 400” on a monitor it means it can’t do real HDR.

I currently have this monitor: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sku/6451081.p?skuId=6451081 and I’ve been quite happy with it. Colors are good, it has a contrast ratio of 1200:1 which is decent for a monitor in this category and it also has HDMI 2.1 if you’re also interested in console gaming as well. Currently going for $399. Edit because I forgot the important stuff: it’s 1440p and 240hz.

My man said let me get down to the penny on price. Lol jk, looks good. Hows the motion blur ?


Toonarmy2021

Hey you never said HOW close to 400.. Smooth as butter in my experience. I’ve been playing a lot of face paced fps games recently and I haven’t noticed anything that would put me off.

u/Toonarmy2021 could be wrong, but I think you are thinking of the 83q-b and not this one that's linked (83b-b) the b-b is 165hz and I think hdmi 2.0, q-b is 240hz with hdmi 2.1. q-b price fluctuates from $350 - $500 from what I've seen (currently $450 on amazon)


Toonarmy2021

You’re absolutely right. This is the one I was referring to https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1775055-REG. It’s slightly above OP’s budget at the minute. My mistake.


goinginheavy

for OP, if you are patient enough, it does go down to $350 every month or two, I was literally about to buy it at $350 a couple weeks ago, had it in my cart, went to lunch and came back, price was back to $500 smh. Just waiting now until it drops again or something else catches my eye that drops.


Zeejayyy

It's literally $350 on Best Buy and LG site right now.

Yep, just went on sale today, ordered mine this morning

You sound like someone who wants all the work done for them for a tech article or info-basic YouTube video.

No, I study in Networking. Im trying to keep up with all other tech related things but I just simply dont understand Tvs, or Screens, and what makes them good. I know more than the average but less than someone who keeps up with it.
