We really like the RGB backlight on this monitor.
TN panels have slightly less vibrancy and a narrower viewing angle, but cost less and have a shorter lag time.Īll the monitors we chose utilize TN panels. Now, the differences between them are pretty technical, but here’s what it comes down to: IPS and VA panels display brighter, more vibrant colors, but they cost more and have a longer lag time. There are three main types: TN, IPS, and VA. Panel TypeĪnother thing to consider if you’re shopping on your own is the type of LCD panel the monitor uses. A low lag time, more than a few milliseconds, will put you at a disadvantage in competitive gaming.Īll of the monitors we chose have a lag time of 1ms, which gives you as much of a gaming edge as a monitor can provide. Lag time is the amount of time it takes from when your graphics card updates the image to when your monitor makes the changes on screen. Here are a few other things we considered when making our choices. Much larger, and you’ll be too close to the screen to see everything comfortably. Much smaller, and you’ll start having trouble making out fine details. If you’re not sure, run a benchmark test and find out.Īs for the 24-inch size, it’s the ideal size for viewing at a normal gaming distance. Needless to say, an ultra-fast monitor won’t do you much good if your graphics card can’t run your game any faster than 60 FPS. That’s a significant improvement over older, 60 Hz hardware. So, a 144 Hz monitor will allow you to run your games at 144 FPS instead of maxing out at 60. The refresh rate measures how many times your monitor refreshes the image every second.īasically, it’s the upper limit to your frames per second (FPS). We’ve written about refresh rates in the past, but here’s a quick refresher.
The reason is that 144 Hz monitors are quickly becoming the standard for gaming. But why focus on such a specific category?
Ark crosshair overlay windows 7#
I'll note that at this point I was using windows 7 without Aero, therefore without any penalty for using borderless fullscreen mode at the time.Today, we’re going to talk about 24-inch, 144 Hz monitors. This is the crosshair which I made and used for the longest time. Therefore even if you intend on not using a custom crosshair long term, I think it's a useful training aid. A higher contrast crosshair helps you to focus and aim better.Īfter using a high contrast crosshair for awhile, I also believe that it helps you to focus better on the default crosshair as well, despite its low visibility. With my personal crosshair, this was further aided by the fact that my crosshair existed around the default crosshair without obscuring it. I think that 90% of players will benefit from using a better crosshair despite potentially extra input latency. The disadvantage of borderless fullscreen is in windows 8+, where the OS has built in v sync on non 'real fullscreen' windows, which removes screen tearing (visual fidelity) at the cost of input lag. In windows 7, you can just disable Aero to avoid OS based v sync. I consulted support about this specific overlay program before I did any experimentation with this and was told that this was fine and would not get me banned. I am not responsible if support has since changed its stance. To run warframe in borderless windowed mode A crosshair (make one or steal mine or someone else's)ģ. To get a custom crosshair in warframe you will need:Ģ. Here is a solution I used for many months that may be useful for others. The default warframe crosshair is semi transparent and often has visibility issues, blending into the background and making it difficult to aim. Starting an actual thread for this for reference because I'm tired of typing it out each time.
