Monitors - what's everyone using for gaming?

I have two battle stations, work and play my monitor is ASUS ROG Swift 27" 1440P Gaming Monitor (PG279Q) - QHD (2560 x 1440), IPS, 165Hz (Supports 144Hz), G-SYNC. I have the monitor paired to a ROG Strix GeForce RTX™ 4080 SUPER 16GB GDDR6X OC Edition. I have owned the monitor since 2018 so I'm about due for a refresh but it still works flawlessly. At the time I bought it was around $700 so I wanted to get my use out of it before refreshing it.

I also had to go external for my DAC, the video card is blocking my other PCIe slots.

Hi everyone,
Please share with us what gaming monitor you're using.

I'll go first. I have a pair of Dell G3223Q. They are 32" 4K with 144Hz refresh rates.
Bought these to replace previous 60Hz versions. The increase in refresh rates and response times greatly improved the gaming experience.
There are no built-in speakers so I use a soundbar and a headset for gaming.
I have to say, I am disappointed that your computer case was not a canister shell :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Ignore the terrible monitor placement that I have at the moment—currently giving my office a makeover over so I had to move my setup to the attic which has slanted walls. Also, the desk I am currently using is temporary I had to use this because my standing desk doesn't fit the attic ( I am just to lazy to disassemble it to move it up there lol)

On the left is a 1440p 240Hz Samsung Odyssey G7 monitor from 2022. It has a 27" curved VA panel.
On the right is an old ASUS TUF VG259Q, 25" 1080p 144Hz IPS panel.

Both do their duty although I have to say. Even tho it is a good monitor I never became a fan of the VA panel that the Samsung has, something is just off about it fps games that I don't like. I never really bothered to change it out tho until now. Currently looking for a 360Hz or even a 480Hz Oled panel, there are a few out there at the moment but I have to do some research into Oleds.

For anyone interested

Microphone - HyperX Quadcast S (on just some generic arm)
Mouse - Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2. ( I hate the thing mostly because there has been something loose inside it since the beginning and I am to lazy to fix it)
Keyboard - Corsair K65 Plus with MX Red switches.
Snack on the left is a Liga milkbreak
Hmmm milkbreaks

Animal’s Quest to get canister shell…..

Officer 1: “No you can’t have one, no you can’t buy one either I told you not to call back here again last week and the week before that “

Slams phone down

Officer 2: “who was that?”

Officer 1: “That same asshole asking if he could buy a spent canister round again , saying he’s going to build a PC with it….”

Officer 2 “What an idiot, nothing surprises me these days “

Officer 1: “I know…..”

Officer 2: “Report him… see what he’s up to, probably some wack job, here take this over to building 4 and provide the information to Sgt Beckler”

Officer 1: “He said to never disturb him while he was playing BF4…. “
