| Conina said: Sorry, but you are wrong. The 93 ppi of your Viewsonic VX3209-2K are the same as the 93 ppi of a "peasant 1080P 24''-monitor": http://www.displayspecifications.com/en/comparison/f7d9228cd But I agree with you, that 90 - 100 ppi are still a good density for Windows + games. |
I suggest you use this: https://www.sven.de/dpi/
You may find that a 1080P, 24" monitor does not have a PPI of 93.
| JEMC said: Oh, in my case, monitor size is key, because I don't really like big monitors. My main TV is 32", and I don't really understand how people can use something that big as a monitor, let alone those with 40" or even more monsters. |
You place the display farther back. The perceived pixels per-inch gets better then too.
| Conina said: 4K ain't a must, 1440p will do. So I'm very interested in the new monitors coming out this and next year. |
Agreed. 4k is just to demanding on hardware. Even Titan XP users will find they will need to upgrade sooner rather than later.
I would never opt for anything less than 1440P these days.

Curved sucks. D:
It's the new "fad" and I don't like it to be honest. It's making monitor choices more difficult.
| Chazore said: Okay so I've come down to these choices for a new monitor. 1440p: https://www.scan.co.uk/products/27-acer-xb271hu-g-sync-led-monitor-165hz-ips-panel-2560x1440-4ms-1000000001-hdmi-dp-usb-2x-speakers- https://www.scan.co.uk/products/27-asus-pg279q-rog-swift-165hz-nvidia-g-sync-ips-monitor-2560x1440-4ms-10001-dp-hdmi-2x-usb-30-black |
To me it looks like they are using the same panel. So go with whatever is cheaper?
I wouldn't even consider 1080P to be honest. Unless it's 24".
| hinch said: Welp looks like Vega isn't looking so hot.. <- Wccftech. Power consumption off the roof, and it looks like AMD are just playing catch up from an over a year old GPU (GTX 1080). Looks like I'm good until Volta. |
I will probably be better off going with another Radeon RX 580 or two at this rate.
| Chazore said: After reading the endless anti-common sense defense force, i've come to a newfound dislike for the Blizzard fan base. They've been defending Blizzard's move into slapping MT's into their games and basically nickel diming as much as possible. |
How can anyone defend Microtransactions? They are crap.
The only good Microtransactions are the ones where the game developer/publisher doesn't make ANY profit from them, where those funds are funnelled back into the community/e-Sports scene. And then they need to be non-intrusive.
Halo 5 for instance used a portion of Microtransaction revenue to fund eSports, but having Microtransactions tied into the gameplay was bullshit, step to far.
Regardless, StarCraft 2 is dead at the moment anyway, hoping for StarCraft: Remastered to revitalise the scene.
