Currently, the display market has been subdivided according to the needs of users. For example, e-sports monitors with high refresh rate as the main selling point are now relatively hot.
Many gamers want to enhance their gaming experience through e-sports. But do you really think that with e-sports you can get e-sports smooth display?
E-sport monitor standard
First of all, it is for everyone to distinguish what is the e-sport monitor. With the rise of e-sports, many users began to tilt to the 'game-only' angle when selecting PCs.
Because of this, various e-sports peripherals are becoming increasingly popular, and e-sports displays have a cool look and excellent display effect, making them a must for many gamers.
What kind of display can be called an e-sports monitor?
Has a larger screen field of view, 5ms response time, 144Hz screen refresh rate, support AMD FreeSync or NVIDIA G-Sync synchronization technology, many people are the pursuit of gaming experience and chose the gaming monitor, but at home with When the game or desktop game is paired, it doesn’t feel the e-sports effect it should have. Why is this?
E-sports monitors require too much hardware
At present, the mainstream e-sports monitor refresh rate in the market is 144Hz. A few top-level products have even achieved 240Hz display.
However, although the refresh rate has gone up, but also puts higher requirements on the PC's hardware configuration. Take the "watching pioneer" game as an example, you need to be equipped with a GTX1060 graphics card in order to play 1080P resolution, 144Hz smooth picture experience
But now the price of the graphics card market is still high. At present, the price of a host with 1060 is also around 6000-7000 yuan. This is not a small expense for the average player, so when you change the monitor Also consider whether your own host configuration is sufficient.
If you only play games like "League of Legends" or "DOTA2" at ordinary times, the excessively high refresh rate does not have a bonus effect. Therefore, for these players, the significance of buying an e-sports monitor is not so great. A better general monitor with a color screen.
Gaming display may not be suitable for you
In the hidden meaning of many consumers, what can be called an e-sports monitor is definitely a high-end product, and its display effect will be even more perfect. There are no problems in professional areas such as image and video editing, but the author wants to correct it here. Everyone's subconscious is really thinking much more.
In order to pursue a lower response time, the majority of e-sport displays use TN material screens. The disadvantages of color and viewing angles compared to materials such as IPS and MVA are very obvious. The only advantages of TN screens are lower costs and easier implementation. Lower response time.
If you have high requirements on the color and picture of the monitor, most of the e-sports displays are obviously not suitable for you. The prices of e-sport displays using IPS materials are generally high. In terms of price/performance, they directly purchase color performances. A better general monitor is more practical.
In a word, the e-sports display is a device derived from services for the gaming industry and is more suitable for gamers. As for ordinary users, the author does not think that ordinary users need to pay for e-sport displays with high refresh rate and high response time. Therefore, the display is optional. Before understanding your own needs is the key.
