  • 165Hz Refresh Rate to make sure you see EVERY frame

      Perfectly good for 90% of people.

      • ONEMariachi on 28/04/2021 - 23:14

        I logically agree with you, but I also totally get where that dude is coming from. I know 1080p is perfectly good, but man I don't think I could ever go back to 1080p after a 1440p Ultrawide. 1440p would be minimum haha.

    can't find many reviews, is this similar to the VG240YP?

    i just spent $280 on an Acer Predator XB253QGP, it's better than this one but still
    might have to get this a 2nd monitor, they both look similar so will look nice together

    • Store RepScorptec @ Scorptec Computers on 28/04/2021 - 13:09

      Pretty similar.

      The VG240YP has a 144Hz Refresh Rate compared to the 165Hz on the VG242YP, and I'm fairly certain that the VG240 isn't HDR400, but almost everything else is the same. The stand is red as opposed to black, but aesthetically there isn't much else that's different.

    • jasswolf on 28/04/2021 - 14:59

      The 240 had a Panda panel, as per the original AOC 24G2, just poorer tuning.

      This is likely to have a BOE panel, probably the same as the revision of the AOC 24G2, again but with likely poorer tuning.

      You can get a rough idea of the differences here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdmE3NcyAgM

      2x27". I have a 34" ultra wide and personally I think dual screens is better for work.

      • CrushJelly on 28/04/2021 - 15:39

        Agree.

        2x27" is more productive as 34" UW is not wide enough. You lose a lot of real estate.

        I've gone to 38" UW and that works better than 34" UW. I prefer the 38" but my second preference would be 2x27".

    The Acer VG271US 27inch looks like a decent buy if you want to step up to 165Hz and 1440p display https://www.scorptec.com.au/product/monitors/25plus-inch/847…

    • Store RepScorptec @ Scorptec Computers on 28/04/2021 - 14:49

      Also a very good step up if anyone is keen to up their resolution for a heavily reduced price! Good find.

      • iWouldDie4u on 28/04/2021 - 15:47

        For someone on a budget - is the $80 price difference THAT noticeable compared to the 27" monitor in the OP?

        • Store RepScorptec @ Scorptec Computers on 28/04/2021 - 15:50
          +3

          The jump from 1080p to 1440p is actually quite noticeable; certainly more so than the jump from 1440 to 4K.

          For 90% of people, Full HD is totally okay and perfectly fine, especially with specs like this, but for a lot of people who want higher resolutions in games or better resolutions for work like Photoshop, CAD, etc, then the extra $80 is well worth it.

        • Solrak on 28/04/2021 - 16:25
          +1

          Yes it is, especially at 27' and above. Once you go 1440p it's hard to go back. Be mindful of what graphics card you use if a gamer. 1440p pushes more pixels so your FPS will drop compared to 1080p res

      • ilovvebargains on 28/04/2021 - 17:19

        Hi Scorptec,

        Do you know if this VG271US monitor supports 120Hz at 1440p and also 120Hz at 1080p? I have had a good flick through google but no luck on finding list of frequency support for this monitor :(

        • Store RepScorptec @ Scorptec Computers on 28/04/2021 - 17:34

          Heya, if it supports anything above what you need, then it will support exactly those specs.

          For example, this one maxes out at 1440p at 165Hz, so it'll do any other lower Hz or lower Res no problem :)

          • ilovvebargains on 28/04/2021 - 17:37

            @Scorptec: Oops.. I should have added I will be using the monitor for Xbox Series X, so I think it the monitor has to specifically support 120Hz?

      • xjcs88 on 28/04/2021 - 17:41

        Hi I’ve been using XB271hu for years and I’m very satisfied with it. Could you suggest how VG271US compares with it? Considering to get one for wfh. Thanks. Just googled a bit but can’t find much information.

        • Store RepScorptec @ Scorptec Computers on 28/04/2021 - 17:50
          +1

          Well if you're using G-Sync then you'd want to steer clear of the VG271US; it does utilise AMD FreeSync but as yet isn't G-Sync compatible.

          That said, the VG does have a slightly better response time (1ms v 4ms) and HDR400.

          The XB271HU also has a much more versatile stand in that it can rotate 90 degrees, whilst the VG is fixed.

          That's about it, really!

          • xjcs88 on 28/04/2021 - 18:05

            @Scorptec: Have to admit that I kept Gsync closed since I bought it… to achieve the best fps performance.

            And since this one would be a secondary monitor so I don’t really care about the stand.

            Any major difference regarding picture quality? Thanks.

    • Store RepScorptec @ Scorptec Computers on 28/04/2021 - 16:00
      +1

      A few!

      • The VG272LV has a 1ms response time as opposed to the 5ms of the ED270RP
      • The ED is curved, the VG is not
      • The ED has a 250nit brightness display, the VG is 400
      • The obvious aesthetic differences

      Those are the main points :)

      • sunny007 on 28/04/2021 - 16:04

    Also no mention of G-sync in the specs, it is compatible?
