[@shawnaskye1769]

This video helped A LOT. I’m trying to buy my boyfriend a system for his birthday and had no idea what any of this means. The video was easy to follow and simple enough so I could understand. Thank you!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@somedude96]

You forgot to talk about panel types. IPS, VA, and TN.

[@sa5er1234]

The verdict you gave "sweet spot" is the monitor I was hesitating to buy was researching. Way to go mate

[@owli0084]

Amazing video dude. Ive bee looking for a gaming monitor for 2 weeks and been so confused. In 11 minutes you have blown my mind. Going shopping now. Thanks again!

[@TechAuditTV]

Love to hear it!

[@tr3agedy]

And I though 6 inches was big

[@xVovex]

Buying my first PC and first monitor, this video really helped explain it, and straight to the point as well. Thank you.

[@DefinitelyAreo]

Which monitor you bought?

[@Eejaysushi]

I was not looking at the screen during the intro.. the 72 inches sweet spot completely got my attention.

[@TheTDawson1]

Why is this the best breakdown I’ve seen and, more importantly, why is it not the first in search?? Great video.

[@odnankenobi]

Excelent video! I'm just a bit disappointed that a good video like this didn't mention that 99% of response times listed on retailer and manufacturer specifications do not represent reality at all, and should be outright ignored when purchasing. This is very important, and VESA is in fact issuing new testing standards like ClearMR to address that exact problem, but this standard is not widespread as of yet, which is why you should actually check 3rd party reviews and testers for realistic response times of your monitor

[@ozzy1243]

I like the way this video was editted. Allowing us time to screenshot tips 💯

[@pacoescobar8251]

Thank you this was very helpful for a first time buyer.

[@TechAuditTV]

You bet! Anything for the Escobar family.

[@freessuul]

i so badly want whole set up pc snd everything, and i don’t understand anything about this world and this video was so helpful, thank you so much!! :)

[@skm4308]

Well this video was very helpful because I just got my first PC today and all I need is a monitor thanks for the helpful information you just made my life easier.

[@matthewclayton7408]

Great video Mi G. Very good explanations and breakdown

[@mythicalcraft2783]

You earned my Respect

[@DonaldMolter]

Brandon doing the lords work and giving the people some easy to follow info on decoding monitor specs. Nice!

[@DrZoomer]

Nice video. Good buying guide with more general guidelines to look for rather than a few specific suggestions

[@slyking214]

I never thought I'd sleep to a tech guide.

[@braethorn]

Dude, this is such a great vid. I've referred others to it before, and I genuinely do not feel the need to make a video covering this topic because you did such a fantastic job with it. Well done, man!

[@braethorn]

I also feel like I should apologize for many of my videos being 30+ minutes long 😅

[@TechAuditTV]

Much appreciated man! Means a lot coming from you! I keep having other creators tell me I need to go longer 😂

[@kettya5274]

Love how u explained these stuffs to someone low knowledges about this, u got my sub bro

[@DheerajKumar-wj1hz]

Excellent video man ❤️❤️❤️❤️. i searched literally 50+ videos then find yrs.It cleared all my doubts.thanks man 🥳🥳

[@Anthony-qh1xv]

Are Dell gaming monitors good? I just picked up a Dell G3223d, 1440p, 32", 144hz, and I love it! I had the Samsung Odyssey G7 1440p, 244hz, 32" before, but it died after 5 months. I feel like Dell units are more reliable. Is this true?

[@MorTphyr]

Why would you go 32" lmaoo it has the same ppi as a 1080p monitor

[@Ollylifestyle]

This is soooo easy to comprehend! Thank you for this video!! Just subscribed 😍

[@Piyush-zr6jx]

Really needed this thank you.

[@Agent_Alpha_SLV]

Just bought a LG Ultragear 24GN650-B (24" FHD 144hz 1ms) for $195 and i couldn't be happier with my purchase. Im using a gaming laptop with GTX 1650 so i don't wanna buy a 1440p since it couldn't handle 3A games on that res so this is the sweetest spot for me at least.

[@13luee17]

This video deserves ALOT more praise😭.. this man saved me SOOOO MUCH MONEY. THANK YOU.

[@godblessbharat708]

I bought 240hz 1080p for competitive gaming and I don't play multiplayer games anymore except for co op games with friends.. I suggest going for 4k gaming monitor or TV with adaptive sync even if your games output 60fps in 120hz or higher hertz monitor you will see benefits with g sync turned on

[@Somekidthatsontheinternet]

I got a 27” 1440p, 165hz, VA monitor and it’s serving me great

[@JEGNAW]

holy, this is everything i needed to understand. thank you great video

[@cristianscintei1527]

One of the best informational videos I ever watched

[@loon2209]

It will be best if you also explain the panel type of monitor TN,VA and IPS.

[@GainesMediaInc]

Mannnn...though you did focus on gaming applications, this is by far the 2nd best video on monitors l've seen on KZbin!(behind The Tech Chap).

[@lethalvisiontv7709]

I just picked up a 31.5" QHD 144hz curved monitor. Hopefully i made a good choice

[@azhar9533]

Thank you so much! You made my black friday easier mate 🎉

[@twoHRdrive]

This has been so unbelievably helpful

[@abdielrios2394]

Dude best guide hands down! Bro! 🙌🏼💪🏼 thanks for the info!

[@NyxCuervo]

I just wanted to make sure I got it all. I do, thank my bro

[@baky8131]

"It's crazy what difference 3 inches makes" I know..

[@StayFr0sty]

0:35 pause...

[@rattusvitruvius]

Yesterday , i actually was panicking about buying a freesync monitor ( vg24vqe asus tuf ) while my gpu is a GTX 1660 Super , i asked a lot of people and none of them gave me a clear answer , and you popped up from nowhere and explained that to me . Thanks buddy

[@kinggoku56]

YOOOOO!!! This was extremely helpful and I can walk away from this video knowing what I want from a monitor for my new desk setup for my PS5! Greatly appreciate it

[@Yoni7]

Is still dont understand the response time what is better 1ms or 5ms 😅

[@bahiyassine6619]

Thank you for these simple explanation !!!

[@Numskull6900]

Need to find a new monitor because my Sceptre one died two days ago. Little did I know Sceptre monitors had shady quality control, reject parts, and short lifespans. Luckily, I'll be able to shoot for some higher specs this time, this vid helped a lot!

[@grassofficer]

this is the best video on this.... thank you

[@TechAuditTV]

Glad it could help!

[@cameroneacret7111]

I’m a complete noob, never even owned a gaming pc, can barely type on a keyboard haha and your right I now understand what I thought was a foreign language, thanks man!

[@Сергей-ж6ъ6ч]

thanks dude, this is the most informative and understandable video on all the vastness of youtube that I found. more subscribers for you and continue in the same spirit

[@jdheng]

the best explanation about choosing monitor. tqvm..

[@zak4853]

Beautiful break down brother ❤️

[@DennisTheZZZ]

I recently got my Philips 27M1N3200VA (1080p, 27 inches, 165 Hz, VA panel) monitor I bought on Black Friday, which cost 190 euros, I live in Germany; works like a charm! :D

[@Jonnov]

Any problems with pixalation? i'm considering if i should get a 27 or 24 inches 1080p monitor. The price difference between the two is insignificant.

[@Mrsterry22]

I super appreciate this video. It was super informational and legit helped me pick my monitor.

[@ihamptonii]

Great information 👍🏾 New subscriber

[@juanlugofitness]

Thanks so much for your explanations ❤

[@bidyutchatterjee7195]

Very well explained !!

[@Devin11246]

I usually agree with your assessment of 4k monitors but when I saw the Gigabyte M28U on sale for 479, I just couldn’t resist.

[@myfatassdick]

Damn that’s a good deal I’ve been doing a lot of research recently and it all came down between that and the Asus VG28 version I got my VG28 for $550 and then it sold out on amazon a few days later The M28U was still over $600 at the time

[@Martianwojack47]

Newbie here but I think i got all the info I needed. Thanks for the thorough breakdown

[@Voyagerss77]

You just save my day!! Great info!! Thanks a lot!!!

[@re-al5751]

Thank you bro for this video

[@BoomerGamerFromPH]

This is truly helpful. Subscribed!!!

[@sdmvx]

You got the response time wrong. Those are g2g pixel response times and not input latency.

[@iamabode7311]

LOVE THE VIDEO, THANK YOU

[@ayanchatterjee9601]

27inch 2k is really sweet spot u get so much sharp crisp image and details + There are so many gpus right now which can handle 1440p just fine + upscaling features like fsr dlss tsr makes quite boost in performance

[@hanionline563]

i have GTX1660Ti u think it's enouph for 27 inch 1440p or i should buy 24 inch 1080p minitor ?

[@ayanchatterjee9601]

@@hanionline563go for 24 1080p dont go for 2k with that gpu

[@brandonwhited4402]

Really love this video - very simple to understand and helpful! As someone who uses Outlook and MS word and other applications in the MS suite extensively for reading contracts every day, the G27Q and it's BGR subpixel layout made reading text terrible. So unfortunate because it really excels in every other category for the price.

[@ivaylotsankov7292]

G27Q is not BGR . You are talkin about M27Q i think. G27Q is litteraly all in one.

[@truereaper4572]

G27Q is RGB and it's awesome.

[@lissam8988]

I will be buying a new desktop computer, which I'm still trying to decide on. It will be for myself and my 12 year old son who likes to play Minecraft, Zelda tears of the Kingdom, and I will be puting the Sims 4 on it for myself and I also play Tears of the Kingdom. In the future we may add some more games so keep that in mind. Based on what I've told you so far what monitor would you recommend and if you do have a recommendation on a PC desktop gaming computer it needs to be under $1,200. Thank you for any time you spend answering my questions I really appreciate it hope to hear from you soon as I will be doing this fairly soon since Black Friday sales are on now.😊

[@snipersoul5]

OMG this video is awesome!!!!! thank you so much now I know what I should look for 😭

[@TechAuditTV]

Glad I could help!

[@vasilisfellouzis]

Hi man nice and helpful video i got this laptop Razer Blade 15.6" Gaming Laptop - 144Hz Full HD Thin Bezel - 8th Gen Intel Core i7-8750H 6 Core - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q - 16GB RAM - 512GB SSD - Windows 10 Is there any 27-32 monitors you recommend in the 200 range price

[@Omegs7]

Awesome guide really appreciate the work you put into this video

[@PamBum28829]

4:49 I didnt know that... so its waste of money to look for hz if not play any game. Im not into gaming, I only look for gaming monitor because any electronic related to gaming must be the best... thanks now I can save few bucks

[@davidsukhiashvili6536]

I got question. I have 2 options. One is 1080p 240hz but my pc only gets 100fps in apex legends . Another one is 1440p 165hz. Both are 1ms. First one is aoc and second is asrock phantom. Which one should i pick

[@ace-ck2829]

Great video, thorough explanation

[@catalictick]

it’s CRAZY what a difference 3 inches makes

[@TheeGreasyGamer]

Constructive criticism here. In the beginning of the video you said you would give me an understanding of what the monitor naming scheme means, but you talked about resolution, refresh rate, response time and didn’t touch in the naming scheme at all. I already know what I’m looking for as far as specs but I don’t know the difference between 1a and 1b in the naming, idk what VG means for Asus or what qfd or qrf means. LG for instance has a gl850a and gl850b

[@MisterFrets]

My dudes got the best gaming muonidder reviews in town

[@allroundgamerog6885]

Hey man idk if u reply to comments but I have a question I bought a monitor it’s 1ms 165hz QHD 1440 and it’s 39 inches curved it covered a lot of good but I wanted to know if since it’s bigger will it not be as good

[@allroundgamerog6885]

Nvm u covered it

[@classica1fungus]

GREAT video GREAT explanation thank you so much

[@ageedtahir3128]

Best monitor video I watch so far

[@Kizy71]

Good vid. Great information and got straight to it! Perfect 👍🏽

[@Patrick-je6qb]

I had to watch 5 yt videos just to get the simplified points you made here! Good job and keep it up! Might have helped also if you differentiated Panel types. But for those who are curious, I think IPS Panels are best 🙌🏻

[@TechAuditTV]

Agreed!

[@Rapid_GT]

VA are curved, IPS are Flat, there ya go done 😁

[@duncanholman272]

Great video, really helped me make my choice of new monitor. Thanks!

[@F.A.--]

For what i have been researching, the perfect monitor does not exists, unless you pay 500+dlls. Either the monitor has ghosting, backlight bleeding, lack of accuracy in colors, not true HDR, not very good g sync, flickering, the monitor behaves weird depending on what gpu you have, latency, dead pixels, weird sounds, no in-built speakers, poor contrast, low quality UI buttons, poor tilt, height adjustment, mounting or non existent, and many other stuff that I`m forgetting. I really don't know what to buy anymore.

[@Kivaskib]

wow, absolutely love this informative video. so glad i ran into your channel from secretlab chair review and subscribed.

[@Dianaranda123]

would be nice if they made a monitor that is aimed at content creator by day, gamer by night. I want a 32inch monitor at 4K and atleast 1000hdr, color accurate, etc without breaking the bank preferable.

[@Hexsyn]

So what happened to the idea that the human eye doesn't see much more than 60 frames per second. Was that just an old lie? I just got a Strix scar 15 2021 edition with a 16 gig 3080 (non ti) and am looking for an external monitor, but for the games I play I can't help but feel I would rather crank the settings and max out at 75 hz 1440p rather than spend money getting something that can go up to 144, know what I mean?

[@whiterunguard3309]

Amazing video, you explained it so well, keep it up :)

[@A7Xfanfr]

Very helpful!

[@JTB_Computers]

Brandon spitting out straight facts!

[@pumpkin7328]

I needed this video 2 years ago. 🤕🤕🤕

[@thyBlackfly]

Nice and fluid video :)

[@adrianlopez3696]

Helped me a lot

[@Rocky-hl9ys]

What about IPS and LED display? Which ones better?

[@PWR5]

Amazing information, THANK YOU!!!!!

[@tech-xo3gq]

Awesome video. thanks!

[@TechAuditTV]

You bet! Thanks for watching!

[@MorTphyr]

Why no say anything about screen tearing/ what happens when you go above your monitor refresh rate?

[@thezebiano]

Very nice video, helped me out a ton. Thank you!

[@andrewleblanc337]

Bought a gaming monitor an hour before seeing this video, but it worked out because i bought one with exactly the specs you recommended for the sweet spot! I did have a question about how clear a 1080p 27" monitor would be, as I read somewhere that it is where the 1080p starts to not be as great?

[@shadowguy8581]

I have a 480p one its my main monitor but I have not bought a 720 or above but 480 isn't to bad for me so if you do not like yours i recommend getting 480p i do not know if it is better but its pretty expensive like 100 bucks but its pretty good.

[@batsai]

This was a really great no-nonsense breakdown. Great video, thanks!\

[@Yosalsafiesta]

Awesome review. I would only add the difference between IPS and VA.

[@chrisgalactic]

Wow I feel like an expert. Thank you so much

[@gothbuda6053]

nice video for anyone looking to buy a new monitor

[@boom78]

I like the 24" 1080p 144hz monitors best. Good bang for the buck and lots of models to choose from.

[@shadowguy8581]

i have 480p is that bad?
