So I ordered a 4k 144hz monitor from Asus. It's the PG32UQ.

https://rog.asus.com/monitors/32-to-34-inches/rog-swift-pg32uq-model/

The main reason I ordered one was cause my current monitor seems to be having issues turning on at times and the fan is making some noises at random times. It does go away but it is certainly showing signs of wanting to commit seppuku. So instead of waiting for the fap worthy mini-LED/OLED monitors that will be coming out next year, I jumped the gun. I will still probably be buying a mini-LED or OLED monitors that will be coming out sometime next year though as a secondary monitor.

Now the reason why I went with this monitor over others is that while the IPS response times is a tad slower than some of the faster 4k 144hz monitors on the market, the difference isn't that big. However the color coverage is significantly better with the pg32uq. On top of that, it has full bandwidth HDMI 2.1 for the consoles. So overall I am pretty excited!

Grats Yuri. Solid pick up right there. 155hz at 4K sounds pretty darn nice to have!

If you want a decent calibrator I recommend the X-Rite i1 Display Series. I've used the Pro model on a couple of monitors and it works really well. Think there's a Pro Plus and Studio out now. It is quite pricey though, so might be worth looking out to see if you can rent a loaner unit from a camera shop/online or something.

Thanks. I forgot this one overclocks to 155hz although I doubt I will need that anytime soon as even a 4090 will have a hard time driving 4k at those kinds of frame rates. Still I do like having the benefits of consoles being able to scale properly with a 16x9 screen.

I might look that up if the color feels too off. I don't do any work that requires color accuracy per say but it's also easy to tell when something looks very off so I shall see. Hopefully I get a good panel.

True, that's a lot of pixels to push lol. Still nice to have once you get even more beastly GPU's in the future and can actually push some older titles and less demanding ones to reach those frame times. Who knows maybe DLSS 3.0 will gives massive increases in performance.

And yeah monitors are pretty well tuned from factory these days. Like my Oddysey G7 was calibrated to a dE of under 2 which is pretty darn accurate! And I would expect that ASUS would be right up there with the best. Fingers crossed.

I haven't but I have seen other forums continuing to not like the idea that PS games are coming to PC.

Most of the ones making troll/low bait posts on the Steam forums all come from private accounts or ones where they own less than 50 games.

Jim Sterling called them out years ago and well, I don't think he's wrong today: https://www.destructoid.com/fact-ps3-fanboys-are-the-worst/



Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.

Yea wouldn't surprise me. We had this nonsense when Xbox was porting games and now we have this nonsense when PS is porting games. If Nintendo ever decides to port games, I feel like we may see real life riots.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Just look at the down votes i been getting for pointing them out in the news post here. Clearly we have lots of salty sony fans here too. And now they following me down voting everything i post on the news story's and they are only making sure i have plenty of salt for my chips as i love the down votes. Each one of them mean i have a different flavor from every sony fan. And then they wonder why everyone hates Sony fanboys.

It doesn't help that if you're a supporter on VGC, you get twice the upvote/downvote power (that and making ghost alt accounts to downvote/upvote is a thing). 

Mods should just get rid of downvotes, because all they are used for is hiding other people's posts, because they don't want them to be seen. Seeing my post about the game awards part of Bobby mentioning got me thinking that a number of folks on this site must be pretty mentally fucked up, to want to censor me for wanting shit done about a CEO or a GOTY swards show, to stop coddling bullshitters who are running a show, where one of their employees offed themselves. 

Like if some users on this site don't give a shit that's fine, you do you, but if you're gonna censor me in defence of some bs CEO or dude running a GOTY show, who cannot grow a spine, then I'd like to exchange fist to face with that person doing the downvoting, because that ain't okay.
