How to choose a gaming monitor?

✓Resolution: 1080p = smooth and accessible (RTX 3060+). 1440p = best sharpness/performance ratio (RTX 4070+). 4K = demanding and costly.
✓Refresh rate: 144Hz minimum for competitive gaming. 165–240Hz for serious FPS. Higher refresh = smoother motion.
✓Panel: IPS = best colors and viewing angles. VA = best contrast. TN = ultra-low response (pro FPS). OLED = best quality.
✓Sync: G-Sync (NVIDIA) or FreeSync Premium (AMD) eliminates screen tearing. Check GPU compatibility.
✓Size: 24" suits 1080p, 27" is optimal for 1440p, 32" for 4K or mixed office/gaming use.

FAQ

144Hz or 240Hz for gaming?

144Hz is the recommended minimum. 240Hz brings noticeable improvement mainly in competitive FPS (CS2, Valorant) if your PC can reach those framerates.

1080p or 1440p: which to choose?

1440p is the best choice in 2026 if your PC has an RTX 4070 or equivalent. It offers significantly sharper visuals without the weight of 4K.

G-Sync or FreeSync?

FreeSync Premium works with AMD GPUs and many G-Sync Compatible certified monitors (NVIDIA). Unless you have a high-end RTX, FreeSync offers more monitor choices.
