Recently, some friends are always discussing how to upgrade the configuration. In fact, what else can be upgraded to the PC hardware now? It's just a new graphics card. However, at present, the RTX40 series only has flagship models, and the price is too expensive. I don’t know when the performance levels below the flagship will be launched, so there is no need to worry so early. On the contrary, it is better to upgrade the monitor first at this time, and then directly smoothly transition to high-quality and high-resolution gaming experience, wouldn’t it be better? Instead of discussing graphics cards, look at the monitor first.
What is the high-end monitor like now? In fact, there are only two hardware specifications, one is 4K resolution, and the other is a high refresh rate. The current gaming hardware may not be able to bring such a platform, but next year will be almost done. As for other specifications, it can only be said that as long as it is of this level, it will not be too bad. All the budget is 4,000 yuan, are there still low-color gamut products? No! At least you will be satisfied with the ones you chose today.
AOC U28G2X/D, the price is 3499 yuan
First talk about the price killer in 4K monitors, AOC U28G2X/D. The biggest selling point of this monitor is its cheapness. However, cheap does not mean that it has poor specifications. Basic specifications such as HDR400 certification, 4K high resolution and 144Hz high refresh rate can be guaranteed. It also supports dual-screen display of picture-in-picture and . The bracket supports lifting and angle adjustment, and can be displayed in vertical screen. However, this monitor only promotes 116% sRGB color gamut area and 95% DCI-P3 color gamut area, which should be different from the color gamut we understand. After all, this monitor is cheap, and the interface is 2 HDMI2.1 and 2 DP1.4.
LG 27GP95R, the price is 4299 yuan
LG This monitor is now a mainstream 4K144Hz product, and the price is definitely the mainstream. This monitor uses NanoIPS solution, supports HDR600 display, and can support 4K120Hz display mode with the support of HDMI2.1 interface. The shrinking specification is not its problem but its own bottleneck, so it is a super-spec product and supports 10-bit display under DP1.4. The monitor adopts a micro-frame design and supports angle adjustment, lifting and rotation. In addition, it can also support overclocking to a 160Hz refresh rate, but how to experience it?
Philips 279M1RVE, the price is 4299 yuan
Speaking of professionalism, Philips looks like a professional-grade product, after all, there are few monitors with a hood. This product has a volume of 133% sRGB and 98% DCI-P3, supports 10bit display, supports dual signal display, can choose picture-in-picture or split-screen, the monitor has HDR600 certification, and the bracket is also quite flexible. Compared with the first two models, it has 3 HDMI2.1 ports and 4 USB3.2 ports. USB Type-Ch supports 65W output and also has 2 built-in 5W speakers. So in addition to the professional appearance, its expansion ability also makes people feel comfortable.
Samsung S28AG704NC, the price is 3499 yuan
Are there any products designed for games at this price? The answer is yes. There is one in the Samsung G70A series, which costs only 3,499 yuan, which is comparable to AOC. This product is also a 4K144Hz display, supports 90% DCI-P3 color gamut, HDR400 certification, and supports 21:9 fish screen display mode. You can get a larger field of view when playing some games. In addition, there is LED light on the back of the monitor, which can create a synchronous atmosphere light effect when playing games. The monitor supports intelligent detection and connection devices, and automatically switches when signals are connected, without manual operation. It can be seen that this product has many designs for gamers, and the price is indeed not expensive.
summary, it is not difficult to find that even high-resolution and high refresh rate monitors have begun to become cheaper, probably because some monitor brands are also preparing to welcome a new round of hardware upgrades. Some friends online asked if HDMI2.1 can really support 4K144Hz? It is OK if it is HDMI2.1 FRL, and it is fine at most 160Hz. If it is higher, it will be a bit troublesome. In short, if the budget is sufficient, then put the monitor in one step. After all, this thing is not changed frequently, and it will not be a loss to buy ones that are super-spec directly.
