Computer games and that

That model is 2560x1440 / QHD.

Not saying it’s bad or anything, but just not 4k.

The 4k version of that model mentioned in the review is closer to £1k.

ah, sorry bout that, maybe i need a better monitor myself :smiley:

Did you see the extract from the review, above??
I think I see the reason for the confusion. The link I had, goes to a different monitor on Ebuyer.
The model we are both talking about is the ACER PREDATOR XB273K.

Yes, if you search that model, it seems to be about a grand now.

The cheapest I found is the XB273KGP variant which is £686. Other versions are cheaper but not 4k.

I don’t see the advantage of high refresh, and very little will be running at 4k even on a series X, so I wouldn’t worry about either much. Just make sure the xbox will run it natively, you might have to check that for QHD.

Freesync or Gsync is worth having, I think the series X supports both.

I’d probably just get a 48" OLED TV :slight_smile:

I have one of these for my PC electriQ 43" Super UltraWide 120Hz Curved Monitor - Laptops Direct

Thanks. Sounds like the model you linked to won’t do 4k and 120hz for the Xbox as it has HDMI 2.0 not 2.1.

I don’t have the space for a TV at the moment though that may change next year. Perhaps in the meantime I’ll stick with my current basic monitor and then upgrade to a TV or better monitor next year when the price for the tech has hopefully come down.

Just get a 4k 60hz screen then. I really don’t see the advantage of the 120hz on my PC.

Freesync yes, as it stops tearing etc.

Ghost of Tsushima PS5 director’s cut for sale of anyone wants it.
£35.
Platinum’d it over my covid isolation!

Superb.

So I found this website which seems to have a few Xboxs in stock still. However I’ve not heard of them and wonder why they do, when all other retailers seem out of stock. Does anyone know if they’re legit, or should I hold off to get from a better known outlet?

Doesn’t look so good.

Ouch, no it doesn’t, thanks.

Just got a PS+ subscription for my birthday and both of these are in the PS+ collection so will check them out :+1:
