To be fair in the WOLEDs 480hz mode it is also 1080p, except now all those pixels are spread across 32" instead of the 24" of the Zowie monitor

@@Game_Crunch no doubt. No protocol can support 480Hz at 4K. But it may not be 32". Is this the monitor where you push a button to switch to 480hz in 1080p mode? If it is, the window is 32"/2=16". You get black bars top and bottom and left and right.

@@Game_Crunch they crop

​@@Game_CrunchOn a real use case scenario it's very hard for current hardware (both gpu and cable) to output 4k 480hz. And if you're using 480hz most of the time you're playing a light competitive game that's designed to generate as much framerate as possible. But with less price, you get a monitor that's not locked for competitive esports and can be used for anything

here before people nerd out about zowie and their "low input latency". For 1000€ you can get a 240hz oled monitor that has: Better colors, lower input latency, lower g2g transition, and higher resolution. 240hz oled> 540hz shitty tn

@arshbimbh that's like how everyone chooses their partners. you go through stages, and if you let them pass. you might date them, so your comment is kinda irrelevant.

@@coltzi I bought benQ mobiuz monitor just on his words and i dont regret it And about girlfriend,I never had one😅

Zowie doesn't even have the best backlight strobing implementation. ULMB 2 is currently the best. Zowie is only good at selling overpriced hardware. They won't be able to do anything with OLED since there's no backlight for them to mess with.

OLED panel sizes and BFI/Brightness issues make this unlikely in the near future.

Zowie will "innovate" it in 5 years time...

i think only when they make oled bright enough to sustain 350 nits with Black light strobbing on

@@RegBinaryyeah but the asus monitor dosnt have much customization when it comes to the monitor which is annoying asf esp with no sharpness slider for a esport monitor

Pros like to keep things consistent to perform the best.

@@simptrix007 yes we know that But among all tn screens they choose benq/zowie for a reason. (Or two) It have the best OSD for customization and it have the best stand that do not get in the way. All other brands fails at their stand aproach.

To be fair i think most pros don't even know what you are talking about and just replicate what a few on the community promote. If you ask them why they buy some kind of hardware they will just tell you "it's the best" or "everyone else does it" without actually understanding how any of this works

@@A.Froster I'm aware of that. That's why I didn't said it was for a technical reason. It's just because the user interface is that good (and complete/intuitive) and the ergonomics.

optimumtech said its same theres almost no difference

@@lirimeyer yea, even the slower one is so fast that your not gonna be able to notice any difference without slowmo.

why 24' is better then 27' for esport?

​@@karolkonieczkathe reasoning is less moving your eyes and head to look around but 27 in is fine for that.

@@karolkonieczka well a lot of Pro players are prety close to their monitors and on 27 inch they could not see everything going on as the screen is just to big

esportlers don't care about 32'', ultrawide immersion. They care about visibility. Smaller 24'' better fits on the desk. Even on an oversized desk 26.5'' is the upper limit for me. Also PPI on this larger screen generally is worse. So if you actually would care about good image quality you would want high PPI smaller Monitors, like the ones used by professionals. I won't upgrade until there is a proper 4k 26.5'' OLED option with at least 240hz and UHBR20 support. So not gonna happen in the next 3 years ...

@@karolkonieczka just a meme. Very few pro players really know about settings. The majority just replicate the "tradition"

same,can't have 24 inch qhd monitor from more companies...

I tried the 2566k and this thing is the worst thing i ever looked at. The thing was in front of a wall and i almost could see through it. Bought the PG27AQN and it is amazing.

Either you sit 10cm in front of your monitors or it takes you a longer time to get used to it but at normal viewing distances 27insh is just superior to 25

That's where I'm at. And pushing the monitor back to get the same physical fov DOES NOT feel the same. I think an even a smaller screen than 24 inch feels better. Especially in close quarters. My best Soldier 76 game I did 720p black bars on my 27 inch and I finished with around 75 percent accuracy. Lower dpi and resolution have a unique interaction with each other that feels amazing.

EX270M is 1080p and EX270QM is 1440p according to the BenQ website

@@Physis_88 qm you’re right

LG coming out with 480hz 1440p this year oled

@@thedesk954 I would never consider an oled lol

@@C0nnie why not?

Just scale it down to 24" size, there's an option in the menu. At 480Hz on OLED panels BFI just doesn't make sense.

@@andrejnaumovski8622 Actually OLEDs benefit BFI as much as, if not even more than LCD since they also use sample and hold method of refreshing the image. And for that reason, even at 480 native refresh, OLED motion is not on the level of CRT. With BFI it probably would be. Also scaling down the display area on an OLED is not a good idea because the way oled ABL works is that it adjusts the overall brightness according to display area, so if you make the active area smaller, it will drive that area with more brightness, which will degrade it faster compared to the letterbox around it.

@@andrejnaumovski8622it looks really blurry for 1080p tho

it's actually 24.5 inches against 26.5 inches. Also some of the 26.5 inch oleds offer screen adjustment to 24.5 inches.

@@knz2894 Those modes are blurry. Look up Optimum's review of the 32GS95UE. If you're talking about the 25 inch mode of the PG27AQN IPS 360Hz monitor which isn't blurry, that mode is extremely unreliable. It only works in some games. It doesn't work in games like Fortnite, Apex, and Valorant.

Got LG’s new oled monitor today and it does just that. Oled 240hz 4k or switch to 1080p 480hz at all sizes stretched 34, 27 and 24. It’s amazing except for one problem.

Problem is I come from a Samsung g5 curved 27 and now any flat monitor looks strange to me. It’s apparently a trick of the mind from using a curved monitor for so long. Makes my flat monitor look wrapped like if it had a bubble in the middle making the corners look small and far while the middle enlarged.

@@HenrySavinon Look up optimum's review of that monitor. Those 24 and 27 inch modes look blurry. About going back to a flat monitor, your eyes are currently tricking you. Your brain will adjust after a few days.

i agree

I don’t understand anyone playing on 60hz with a pc defeats the point entirely imo

@@AstroBot-bc0213 it's not really noticeable unless ur playing an fps or something involving any type of aim

Even just navigating windows is nicer with a higher refresh rate. I will say anything above 144 Hz has massive diminishing returns though.​@@aimingisnice7732

Zowie blacklight strobing is much faster (frequency), quicker (faster transition) and less straining. It's really not even comparable.

Don't know if you've ever used one, but for most people I don't think it's an issue at all. I used the 390hz strobing IPS monitor for over a year with strobing turned on 100% of the time, even when I worked from home. Never caused me any eye strain or headache or anything at all

I'd say don't knock it till you try it, trust me the back light strobing on zowie monitors is leagues ahead of what it used to be. I remember the eye strain i used to get on my old tvs. Recently purchased a zowie monitor with back light strobing tech and I don't get that same eye strain.

To me, the biggest issue is that strobing is not a plug and play solution. It's easy to mess up one or more of the settings required for a clean strobing experience, causing unnecessary motion artefacts, bad frame pacing and eyestrain. Most people just give up when this happens and remember what they were warned for. Eyestrain can also be caused by the lack of motion smoothness, which is not consistent with the much smaller amount of motion blur. You need some time and rest to get used to this, if sensitive to it. On top of that, TAA blur is a lot more visible with strobing. With nearly every modern game forcing it, it is likely to cause eyestrain for strobing newbies Strobing can defenitely be good, even at 100 hz or lower. I can use my xg2431 like that all day, without eyestrain at the end. My monitor isn't a factor of annoyance anymore, I can just forget about it and do whatever I like without being constrained. I only need a refresh rate above the flicker fusion threshold (around 85 hz for me, lower with less brightness), a 100% consistent framerate, v-sync, an fps-cap at exactly the refresh rate (to get rid of input lag), a high vertical total (aka quick frame transport, to make the refresh time as short as possible and give the bottom pixels more time to respond before turning on the backlight), the right strobe phase and enough overdrive to remove crosstalk at the center of the screen, allowing overshoot at the top and undershoot at the bottom.

Yeah I noticed far more eye fatigue after about an hour and ultimately started playing worse.

i dont recoment 27 inches for 1080p, usally 1440p is 27 inches pixels per inch is worser ona 27 vs 24

Should i get the xl2566k or spend more to get the xl2586x (540hz)

@@mongolianlambhoof I'm thinking of finding a XL2566K used for a good price to pair with my 32" 4K144hz monitor. I wouldn't pay the retail price for either one (I prolly wouldn't recommend buying the XL2586x at all unless you're actually only playing comp fps) but would pay 3-400€ for the XL2566K

Ok buddy 😂

I own the AW2721D and its kind of a joke.. the image quality is on par or even worse than than my 24in Acer xv240y. which is about a 4th the cost. only thing you get with alien ware is cool design and some rbg. not worth it my guy.

Mini-led monitors don't have fast response times to the same level as TN panels And back light strobing usually doesn't work with VRR I doubt it'll work with local dimming as well.

the main point is that even for gaming the oled is still the same if not better so there really isn't a point in buying zowie.

Wrong. Gaming on OLED is much better. And majority of people dont just use monitors to 'game'.

@@commandertoothpick8284 1. I already stated that zowie wasn’t suitable for anything other than gaming, which is the only statement needed as we know monitors aren’t just for gaming, even my grandma knows that. 2. No it doesn’t. The motion clarity on the most recent zowie monitor with its BFI tech will never we matched by an oled, due to how LCD’s naturally will ghost when lighting an item on screen. Also latency really doesn’t matter, since you’ll will always have a delay of communication somewhere in the electronics.

Yes, video coming soon 😊

Short answer is no - If your monitor is 144hz lets say, then the Monitor is able to refresh it's "image" 144 per second. Your FPS is the amount of Frames per Second that the Computer is actually producing, but that doesn't mean that your screen is capable of doing the same. It's two different things on different components but kind of similar.

You'll get other benefits of a higher end screen compared to a random 1080p 60 hz panel. Not really, but stuff like OLEDs have absolutely wonderful response times anyway that they feel smoother than a lot of the ones at the same rate. Or mainly turn off motion blur lol

Se for pra jogar FPS competitivamente o armada não é bom, o painel IPS tem um delay maior e mais ghosting que os paineis TN

kind of wrong direction. it's more: organizers use zowie monitors - gamers want to practice on the same hardware as in tournaments - gamers get zowie monitors

Of course he isnt talking about the problems in this video, its a vid on WHY not to get monitors that pro players use. If it was a more in depth vid then yeah i could agree but hes saying why not to get a tn panel vs oled. Also hes comparing the monitors and features in the vid, no reason to bring up dyac+ when no product in the video mentions it

strobing just does not matter as much at 360+Hz, as shown in the video if your PC can't do more than 240fps, then yes, strobing will make a big difference but then you wouldn't spend so much money on a monitor if your PC is so weak

^ this 100%, theres few overwatch pros on oled and all of them have oled burnt in (ow hud) and it looks terrible

@@fradala04 as he reviewed & mentioned some artifact's & Maybe ghosting issues are there is it true ? im gona use the monitor for coding & color work

Dont realy see the point 480hz is not that much differents to 360hz

wdym you can't install windows 10 on a 2017 laptop? windows 10 came out in 2015, you're probably doing something wrong. mini PC's are way too expensive for what they are, waste of money unless you absolutely need to save space.

If laptop is running slow because of windows install linux on it. That will breathe new life into it. If new to linux i would recommend linux lite or linix mint(mate edition)

Also always the same game and UI.

and if I had to sacrifice 1 stat in order to fit the budget...it would be the 240hz refresh rate into something closer to 144hz refresh rate.

most pros do use dyac, at least in cs
