2K Vs 4K Gaming Monitor

the best to 2k monitor

The best 2k monitor out there for the price.

Great 2k Monitor in the sweet spot for gaming! Lots of options including o/c up to 260Hz

This is my second NEC monitor. I had the first, a 24 2K for 12 years. 4K is a whole new world and my photographs look great on it.

It's an awesome monitor, but, if you have sensitive eyes this monitor can be too much. I tried many many different settings but everytime my eyes would end up hurting. The only thing that works kind of is leaving the lights on in the room. Out side of that, it's awesome. It doesn't look all that great in 2k or 1080p, so if you don't have the GPU to push 4k then buy a 2k monitor. 4k gaming will ruin 2k and below afterwards so beware.

I love this Monitor. It is a 4k monitor that provides bright color and great contrast. This monitor is good for gaming and a great general-use monitor.

This is a nice upgrade from my 5700XT, can crush everything at 2k. Will need to get a 4k soon.

Good color accuracy out of the box and no problems using it for gaming at 4K. Not a professional monitor, but excellent for general purpose work and some photo editing.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first ever gaming monitor I’ve ever owned or bought. I bought this monitor for my PlayStation 5!! And I have No regrets well worth the price I use to game on my Samsung 4K tv which has a refresh rate of 120hz but it only had the HDMI 2.0 input at first I thought it was going to be weird going from a 55” Tv to a 27” monitor but right off that bat it just doesn’t compare gaming in a 27 inches is perfect for gaming I was doing it all wrong! And the 4K quality looks better on my LG monitor than it did on my Samsung TV and now I can take Advantage of the 120FPS features on certain games for my PS5 overall I’m very happy with my new monitor and would for sure recommend it to my friends or anyone to buy it if they can.

I've switched to this after 1.5 years with AW3423DW, because Apex and Rocket League have been the majority of my gaming hours. The productivity loss wasn't that bad, and the stand shape leaves room for another monitor if needed. The visuals seem on par with the Dell, but the smoothness is a noticeable upgrade. It is especially clear in Rocket League with its rough transitions when playing the ball cam (like you normally should). 540 Hz monitors with strobing have even better motion clarity but I won't put up with ghosting nor the hit to image quality. The timing around Apex's vulnerability deprived me of the most relevant comparison, but even a similar frame rate looks better in The Division 2. Unlike Rocket League, this must come down to a massive improvement in total latency from superior processing time. AW34D3W was unusually bad for OLEDs, while this MSI tops the charts. The monitor supports 4K input for downsampling the image from modern consoles and media players. The flipside is that PC games detected the monitor as 4K when using exclusive fullscreen, but the borderless option is taking over anyway (DX12 doesn't even have exclusive fullscreen). The connectivity is an upgrade as well: 2 genuine HDMI 2.1 and a 90W PD USB-C are amazing to have. There are also the usual 2 USB-A ports and a backup DP 1.4, too. Software-wise, this is completely fine out of the box unlike certain Samsungs and Dells were. A DSC toggle and separate color profiles for SDR & HDR should come with a future firmware, and the only other quirk is monitor turning off rather than going back to standby after a pixel refresh on idle. For pure gaming performance, this is the best OLED at the joint lowest price for this panel. I haven't been able to identify a caveat here. It is a great time to be an OLED aficionado.
