4K 144hz monitor?

[Stewart Piper-Smith]

Hi everyone hope everyone's all good! I've recently installed my 3080 and i'm over the moon with it.

I have a 1080P 144hz monitor and want to go more down the 4K route. I also have a Samsung u28d590d 4k monitor, but after playing a few games on Call of duty cold war I've decided the input lag is simply far too poor. I've calculated the response time is about 50ms which is unplayable! Also even though I'm running 60FPS or more on everything maxed out, because it's only 60hz the monitor looks jumpy! I figured best of both worlds would be a 4K 144hz monitor with a low input time.

So my question is, what 4K 144hz monitors are out there for a decent price? My budget is around £550, I don't mind going used or refurbished. Most importantly what are the chances that something good will come up during the black friday sale? 27"-32" is the preferable size

Options so far are:

Acer Nitro XV273KP 27"
Acer Predator XB273KGP 27"

Thanks everyone

The best bang for buck with best connections (HDMI 2.1) would be a 'Spectrum 4K 144Hz' but won't be available until around Q1 2021.

The rough equivalent from LG is this one but it doesn't have HDMI 2.1 if that's important to you going forward. Uses the same panel though as the Spectrum.

Acer Nitro XV273KP 27"

Forget that.

Because of lack of bandwidth in connections old XV232KP uses "chroma subsampling" for high refresh rates, which just rapes text in normal use.

And that later is just mess, courtesy of Acer having multiple almost similarly named models.
With most using Jensen's ButtSync making you pay for Nvidia to get ball and chain locked into your ankle to become Nvidia's slave in GPU choise.
(UM.HX3EE.P13 is the correct model with FreeSync)

There really aren't much of choise, with more reasonable high refresh rate 4K monitors having come out only recently.
In 27" size.
32" size has been neglected by makers for years and we only recently got for high refrest rate 2560x1440 IPS at that size.

32" 4K 144Hz GSync displays have been announced for production beginning 2021, screens to be released mid 2021

There is a reason Gsync costs more because it is superior if you call it buttsync i need to presume you have not like me owned non sync, Freesync and GSync displays. I only had an issue with one of them guest which one? The freesync one! Flickering in games and not as smooth as Gsync.

It will be a while yet for decent 4k 144hz displays, People ruined the market by paying for 1440p inflated prices. Now they know they can charge a premium the 32 inch is a joke as well thats a TV not a PC display! No one can fit a 32 inch on thier desk they are playing the gullable masses. Mark my words the 32 inch will cost the same as the 42inch LG OLED!!! Crazy!

So you bought some crappy model (or some Samsung) and now all FreeSync monitors are bad to justify paying Nvidia slavery tax.

And how are people fitting those fashionable ultra low screens hogging even more desk space?
For very low image height...

Viewsonic should be bringing out 32" model early next year likely using AU Optronics M320QAN02.3 panel.

It was the Asus 280hz, Which is a late 2020 first gen 240hz IPS display. The 240gz Gsync was a superior display yet the flickering is on certain games documented and terrible on the Freesync model.

32" 4K 144Hz with HDMI 2.1 will come in considerably cheaper than 48" OLED, given the price for that is holding at around £1400-1500. We won't see the above Viewsonic at that price. It will definitely be closer to the £1K mark, perhaps under if lucky. Of course, with its limited HDR and typical LCD issues, it's a very different animal if you're gaming, in which case the OLED would offer a far more enjoyable experience, but a big 48" screen isn't going to be for everyone of course.

The Asus Mini LED variant is the one that will cost the earth.

Even £800 is too much, For reference i bought 280hz IPS 24" for £268. So i base pricing on that and if it is above £599 then frankly that is outrageous.

According to ComputerBase.de Viewsonic should be around 1000 euros.

With the way LG 27GN950's availability keeps going might wait for that to avoid downgrade in size from Dell U3014.

Quality of Asus doesn't match hype and pricing especially on AMD side.
Asus had plain scam level B450 boards and X570 boards have 15 year old bad chipset cooling design.
And they've had multiple Radeon cards with major design flaws, which should have never passed any basic design validating/QC.
