Do you play in fullscreen, or windowed?

Acer K272HLbid

27" 1920x1080, VA, 60hz (Overclocked to 75hz)

Best settings for Remastered for me are:

Fullscreen mode, Fast Sync (or VSync off), 300 fps cap,
Disable mouse scaling, Hardware cursor On, sensitivity 95%, (Logitech G102 btw best mouse i ever had ever)

As for monitor, planning to update in 2-3 years for something larger and with G-Sync

If you play a lot of first person shooters where there is a ton of movement then yeah, I would invest on a higher hz monitor, otherwise it isn't really necessary.

There are no good 4:3 monitors anymore. So I had to play on a fucking 1080p monitor with black bars on the sides (benq gl2450).

More people hate black bars, although away from SCR, there is a solution.

27 inch Dell monitor, playing on 4:3 with black bars at the side. I would like to play fullscreen but 27 inches is abit too big to be moving the mouse around.

Which panel type is better for RTS game:IPS or TN?
(It seems that most FPS game players choose TN panel for fastest response time.)

Good question, Larva mentioned they have good monitors on KSL since he’s using the same model at home.

I believe on a monitor like this pixels are not square in SD mode or 1.16 if there are no horizontal black bars. It’s 5:4 aspect ratio while BW was designed for 4:3 (1280x960).

I would go for faster refresh rate and response time TN. IPS, VA make sense for graphics/video editing to show you the perfect colors on any view angle. You don’t need to care about view angle since you’re sitting in front of the screen. If you play on 60Hz (default rate) then you need 16ms or lower response time to support that. Today’s IPS monitors are even faster than that but more expensive than TN. If you go 120hz you need 8ms or lower response time. Today you can buy 240hz with 1ms response time or something crazy like that. I would chose this option if I had unlimited money. :D

BW's resolution is 640x480
1.16 runs in exactly that, and the monitor's scaler does an okay-ish job at blowing it up. Windowed 2x also fits well.
1.2 runs the desktop resolution, and upscales while preserving the aspect with a letterbox, so I get an exact 2x scale with tiny bars above and below.

lul no.. You will have your eyes everywhere. You might even need to turn your head.

im at 27" benQ 144Hz like 50 cm away from screen. It works to play BW but any bigger and i would have issues, or have to move screen backwards (which is not possible for me atm). Edit: Oh and moving screen backwards would defeat the purpose of having a bigger screen.

Also its a subjective matter as any noob can claim it works wonders.. While pros most likely will not agree.

I've been using a 32" for quite some time. While microing is easier than ever, multitasking is pretty damn hard. If you play an aggressive style and like short games, a bigger monitor makes sense. It has its pros and cons though.

27 inch monitor. I play in widescreen in windowed mode only, which uses up 2/3 of the screen.

ASUS VG24QE. 24” 144hz. I agree with TT1 you notice 144 hz a little and it’s more pleasant. Obvi not needed.

I really like this monitor, I have 3 of them on a stand.
