FAQ

What screen size should I choose for gaming?

24 inches is ideal for competitive gaming (smaller viewing angle, less eye movement). 27 inches offers a good balance for mixed gaming and desktop use. 32 inches only makes sense at 1440p or 4K — at 1080p, pixels become visible.

HDMI or DisplayPort to connect a PC to a gaming monitor?

Prefer DisplayPort 1.4 for PC gaming: it supports 1440p 165Hz, 4K 144Hz, and Adaptive Sync (G-Sync/FreeSync). HDMI 2.1 is equivalent for consoles (PS5, Xbox). HDMI 2.0 is limited to 1440p 60Hz or 1080p 144Hz.
