Review on LG 27GQ50F B Ultragear Reduction Borderless 165Hz Gaming Monitor - 27GQ50F-B.AUSQ by Matthew Wheeler

FPS sweat? You will need one of these.

I've been playing Apex Legends since Season 1 on PC on a 60Hz monitor. From day one, I've always noticed that I had very little input lag when playing games, but always blamed it on the internet connection, server-side issues, or my own PC, simply because I didn't know any better. After a while my muscle memory adjusted and I started self-lighting, wondering if there was any lag at all. I just had to play better, yeah. But even through muscle memory, I still felt that slight lag at times. Now let's fast forward a few years. At this point I'm advanced enough in Apex to know how good I am and how good I could/should be if I could fix this latency issue I've put up with for years. I finally decided to look into input lag and refresh rate and monitor info etc and then the BOOM lightbulb. It never occurred to me that the problem could be with my monitor. Big uff. The moment I tried my new monitor, Apex felt like a brand new game and I felt like I had just stepped out of a hyperbolic time chamber, like all my circuitry had been removed and I could finally play the game. the way it was meant to be played and with all my mechanical skills. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DAY AND NIGHT. etc.,? Needless Apex Legends, Warzone, etc.? 100% yes. If, like me, you sweat and play to win and not just for fun (laughs, casual gamer), you can't stay on a 60Hz monitor and expect your gear to match your mechanical ability and reaction times. Yes, I mean that completely seriously. buy one now
