Gaming monitors: what to keep in mind
When choosing your next gaming monitor, there are several parameters that are essential to ensure the maximum gaming experience.
The
size of the monitor and its resolution
are crucial factors for an immersive gaming experience.
Larger monitors allow more detail to be seen, while higher resolutions offer a sharper image.
In short, a
1080p
(Full HD) resolution is sufficient for most games, but some newer titles can take advantage of 1440p or 4K resolution or else 3,840 x 2160 pixels.
Another fact to take into account is the
update frequency
refers to the number of times the monitor can refresh the image per second, thus obtaining greater fluidity.
A monitor with a higher refresh rate, like 120Hz or higher than 144Hz, makes games look smoother and reduces motion blur.
This can make a big difference in fast action games like first person shooters and racing games.
The response time is also key at game time.
This indicator refers
to the time it takes for a pixel to change from one color to another.
A faster one, like 1ms or 2ms, can prevent the image from blurring or dragging, especially in fast action scenes.
Screen sync technology is a technology that helps reduce screen tearing and stuttering in games.
There are two main technologies:
AMD FreeSync and NVIDIA G-Sync
.
Both work to sync your monitor's refresh rate with the game's frame rate for
smooth, stutter-free
gameplay .
Lastly, an important fact:
connectivity
.
You have to make sure that the monitor has the necessary HDMI, DisplayPort and USB ports in case you connect several devices.
