Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “First time gaming on a 240Hz monitor! – LG 27GN750 Review”.
All right, this is gon na, be a fun video. So, ladies gentlemen, this here is LG’s. First 240 Hertz one millisecond response time. Ips gaming monitor up until now, I’ve been stuck on a measly peasant 144 Hertz monitor back at home, so this is actually gon na.
Be the first time that I’m gon na be trying out at 240 Hertz monitor. So, a couple days ago I went on my Twitter account to find out what refresh rate monitors you guys are using and, to my surprise, there’s still a lot of people stuck on 60 Hertz displays. What was more interesting, however, is that a lot of people have already jumped over to 144 Hertz, and a small percentage has already leaped straight to 240 Hertz, so yeah, I’m kind of curious, but mostly excited to see what the difference is like switching over from 144 Hertz to a 240 Hertz monitor. I want to know if there’s a noticeable difference and is it even worth upgrading, but before we get into that, let’s review the monitor, stop paying full price for Windows: 10: CD Keys, you guys, you can pick one up for only $ 13 on your CD key Comm just make sure to use my code to get that extra 20 % off links in the description, so the design of the g-9 750 stays true to LG’s ultra geared gaming lineup. We got super thin. Three sided bezels, an aggressive triangular base, design with red accents. All around nothing really new here, the construction of a stand is made out of all plastic and it’s not as sturdy as I expected. There’S definitely lots of play at medium height. However, if you raise the moderate to the top, it becomes more noticeable.
The standards give you a good amount of height adjustability as well as tilt. However, you don’t get any swivel adjustment. You can also rotate the monitor a full 90 degrees, but you can only do this in one direction.
However, you can dish to stand all together and mount it, since it is basic compatible as well. The monitor comes with an HDMI display port and a USB pass-through cable, as well as a hook to help out with cable management and back. You also get a good amount of port selection in the back a couple of HDMI, a single DisplayPort. You get your USB pass-through and two additional USB 3 ports accessing the menu is done through a joystick located on the bottom of the monitor and through here you have access to the adaptive sync option and black stabilizer, which basically adjusts the black saturation levels to make Dark images stand out better in dark scenes. You know before all this gaming IPS monitor hype, gamers used to use TN panels to achieve their super high refresh rates, and we all know the cons of TN panels, subpar color, reproduction and horrible viewing angles.
But that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore, because now, looking at the best of both worlds, we’re starting to see a lot of high refresh rate IPS gain monitors being released in the market, and this one from LG is no exception. Excellent viewing angles with incredible vivid colors that makes every scene pop I mean the color reproduction on here is among the best I’ve seen in other similar spec monitors. So on every monitor, video I do on the channel. I always test these four things: white saturation, black levels, motion blur and, of course, the backlight bleed test and the LG monitor past, most of them with flying colors.
We got great white saturation levels for the black level test. All squares from top to bottom are distinguishable, and this is with factory settings. By the way I didn’t find any ghosting or Corona artifacts present for the motion blur test.
However, there is some backlight bleed in the corners, more specifically on the top-left corner, which is definitely noticeable during dark scenes when it comes to color accuracy. The monitor excels in srgb covering a hundred percent of its color gamut, but only covers 78 % of Adobe RGB. So if you’re a content creator – and you use the sRGB color space, then this monitor would be great for color sensitive work.
However, if you’re a professional working with Adobe RGB color space, then you will need to find another monitor all right. So, let’s hook this up tomorrow, warfare and see if I can tell the difference all right: let’s do this so before I actually launch the game. I want to switch back down to 144 Hertz just so I can the difference switching back to 240, so there we go so now we run 144 Hertz.
Let’S launch the game and see the difference all right. Let’S do this by the way, if you guys play model over as well feel free to add me in-game I’ll drop my gamertag somewhere on the screen. So I bet it definitely tell us it’s under 44 Hertz.
Oh nice! Try! Oh okay sounds up here, yeah! That’S how you clear a house baby alright, so I think I had enough 144 Hertz. Let’S switch this to 240. Still like okay, whoa, okay immediately, I noticed how snappy it is. Our response of everything is: oh yeah.
It’S definitely noticeable Wow. Yes, so I can definitely say this that I’m really bad at aiming. Another thing I can say is that the difference, let me go is go first and then oh, that was so bad anyways. What I’m trying to say is the difference is not as noticeable switching from 60 244, but you can definitely tell like it’s still.
It is still more stable. One thing I’ve also noticed is that my aim is slightly more accurate, like I can almost tell where the krauser is gon na land. If I can use an analogy, I guess I would say this lets say all these years, you’ve been using rubber right and, let’s say rubber is 144 Hertz. In this example, I mean it still feels good and you still have a good time and gets the job done and you’ll be satisfied, because it feels good to play on a higher refresh rate monitor, and then you switch over to 240 Hertz.
The rubber comes off now. It feels amazing. Things are more sensitive, you’re lasting longer because you’re, a better gamer and you’re not dying as quick and, of course, you’re. Getting more kills. You might even keep playing after your match is done because that’s how great it feels. That’S what it feels like playing on a 240 Hertz monitor, so should you buy a 240 Hertz monitor, specifically the lg monitor? Well, if you have the money – and this is very important by the way, if you have a capable PC of pushing around 240 FPS consistently, then I say making the jump is absolutely worth it.
But if you’re stuck on 60 Hertz – and you don’t necessarily have the money to burn, then honestly, I would just say: pick up 144 s monitor and call it a day that is gon na be more than enough to keep. You satisfied, I feel like the 240 Hertz tier are for people who want the absolute best gaming experience, no matter the cost, but whatever you do please take this advice: don’t buy any high refresh rate monitors if your PC can’t handle it. I’Ve seen this so many times where people are using budget, pcs that barely push 60 FPS on minesweeper and their gaming 144 monitors don’t be that guy.
As far as the LG monitor it’s a shame about the backlight bleed and the quality of the stand. But overall I think it’s a monitor, and this is all I see the best you can get right now in the market in terms of specs 240 or is panel one little second response time: IPS, g-sync, color accuracy, all that stuff. This is currently the best in the market, at least until three hundred hertz panels start coming out.
But, honestly, if you don’t care about, you know the viewing angles and the color accuracy all that nonsense. You can buy a cheaper 240 Hertz monitor on a TN panel for less than $ 300. Ultimately, it comes down to how much you’re willing to spend to get that gaming experience. You’Ve always wanted I’ll drop a link to the monitor down below.
