    i play a lot of cs2, valorant and bf2042. Should i get this or the Alienware aw2725df 360 hz oled?

      Depends on your preference. I personally prefer 25 inch 1080p type of monitor for CS and Val. I tried 27 inch 1440p, while it looks good and has better image quality the size throws me off.

    Hey just wondering what stable clock speed did you end up with for your ram? and what did you do for it

      I have a MSI Z790 Carbon. Its a 4 dimm board and max OC is 7200 only. I just played around with the timings until its stable. Basically trial and error. 2 Dimm boards like Apex, Tachyon, Edge ITX, and KingPin can do 7800+ up to 8200. I suggest checking out buildzoid or framechasers oc guide

    • @khensationalReviews
      @khensationalReviews  Před 4 měsíci

      I think its going to be a fantastic monitor for fps. 240hz is just right for high refresh. Not too hard to run compared to 360hz and 540hz

      Honestly it depends on your rig. If you have a 7800x3D id get the XL2566K or even the 540hz only if its discounted. The new xl2546x seems good and easier to drive. Dyac 2 also looks a bit better than dyac+ and ulmb2 to me

      If youre extremely competitive and wants the best sure. IIRC I read somewhere that even the XL2546K beats most 360hz IPS monitors in response time and black frame insertion resulting in overall smoother experience,lesser ghosting and better motion clarity.

    isn't this monitor worse than both the PG27AQN and PG248QP?

    • @khensationalReviews
      @khensationalReviews  Před 6 měsíci

      I would say it should be on par in terms of motion clarity with PG27AQN but loses to PG248QP by a little bit.

    I'm running a 7800x3d RTX 3070, having a hard time running stable 360+frames on this monitor. I play on native with MSAA 4x and shadow High rest low. I guess have to use 4:3 stretched

    • @khensationalReviews
      @khensationalReviews  Před 6 měsíci

      I suppose you're talking about CS2? That is pretty odd for a 7800x3D. I know for a fact that 7800x3D gives you the highest avg frames but somewhat lower 1% compare to Intel. Have you tried running a windows optimizer and what memory are you running

      @@khensationalReviews yes on CS2, i have CL30 6000mhz 32gb ram kit gskill. I tried fresh windows 10/11 results are the same. Maybe running 1920x1080 with 360+frames is still hard in CS2? People with 4:3 stretched on similar rig get 400-500fps constant

    • @khensationalReviews
      @khensationalReviews  Před 6 měsíci

      Ive seen people running native with avg 500 fps in Dust 2 DM actually. Id try running windows 11 optimizer, check power plan, and maybe tweak your nvidia settings. On CS2 launch options put -high and uncap fps. Give these a try

      @@khensationalReviews yes agree but most of the benchmarks I have seen on yt are with everything low preset. 5vs5 premier/faceit is whole different with alot of utilities and stuff. I have lowered my hz to 240 for now and it feels better not causing input lag. I have tried running 1280x960 and it’s much better obv with 400-450 stable frames but I got used to native due to Valorant so trying to stick native here too

    • @khensationalReviews
      @khensationalReviews  Před 6 měsíci

      I see id probably just keep trying stretched tbh for the frames. 1280x960 is great. I think CS2 and Valorant at native res has different POV.

    Asus pg27aqn is the way to go for apex because 1080p is blurry as shit tracking is very important in Apex and visual clutter is so bad too .
