My best gaming monitor advice, the superb AOC 24G2U has been fairly tough to pay money for right here within the UK for numerous months now, with costs steadily creeping upwards as inventory ranges proceed to dwindle. Happily, an excellent different has just lately sprung into view within the type of LG’s 24GL650, which is one in all Nvidia’s formally licensed
G-Sync Compatible monitors with a 144Hz refresh charge and is now all the way down to £192 over at Ebuyer.
The low cost itself isn’t huge, as Ebuyer have solely technically knocked a tenner off its regular worth of £202, nevertheless it’s rather a lot cheaper than what you’ll discover over on Amazon, the place it nonetheless goes for £218. Plus, in response to my Amazon worth tracker, that is the most affordable it’s been for fairly a while. It briefly dipped to £190 again in March, however has in any other case been caught at £200 or above earlier than and since, making it time to choose it up in you’re in want of a brand new excessive refresh charge gaming monitor whose variable refresh charge tech will play properly with AMD and Nvidia graphics playing cards alike.
I ought to word that I haven’t examined this actual mannequin personally, however its official G-Sync Compatible certification offers a whole lot of reassurance on the subject of general picture high quality. Not solely does it imply that this AMD Freesync display screen will work brilliantly with Nvidia graphics playing cards, however Nvidia additionally don’t certify panels that don’t meet their excessive color replica standards, so I’m fairly assured this show’s TN panel ought to look fairly good for those who resolve to make the leap. Besides, our mates at Digital Foundry named its fancier 27in sibling, the 27GL850, as their finest gaming monitor decide, so I’d be very shocked if the 24GL650 didn’t dwell as much as the identical form of customary.
Best of all, it has a height-adjustable stand, which is an actual rarity on sub-£200 displays today, and is a part of the rationale why I just like the AOC 24G2U a lot (that and it has an unimaginable panel, in fact). Plus, if the AOC’s black and pink color scheme isn’t fairly to your style, then the LG’s all-black design must be proper up your avenue.
So, for those who’re searching for a 1920×1080 monitor with a 144Hz refresh charge that doesn’t break the financial institution, then the LG 24GL650 is a good purchase whereas we look forward to the AOC to return again in inventory.
