What Is a G-Sync Monitor?
Monitors have existed for just as long as computers. Ever since the first personal computers were released, monitors have been either sold alongside them or included in a bundle, with some models even integrating the entire computer into them. Today, monitors are an essential part of any computer system, giving the user the ability to see and interact with the computer.
G-Sync monitors are an improvement over the standard LCD or LED monitor. Created by NVIDIA, G-Sync monitors are meant to provide an updated visual experience that is geared towards gamers. The biggest advance in these monitors is by providing an upgraded V-Sync over the standard 60hz that is provided by most common monitors. Instead, G-Sync monitors tend to have refresh rates of up to 240hz, making the monitor extremely responsive in updating the display, and ensuring that the monitor's sync matches the framerate provided by the computer. This helps give gamers an advantage in gameplay, as a faster refresh rate ensures that the game updates faster, making it more responsive and overall immersive. G-Sync monitors also tend to include a large number of extra features that help enhance the overall gameplay experience.
If you just need a great monitor that is geared more towards productivity than gaming, take a look at our reviews of five of the best computer monitors available.
What Features to Compare
G-Sync monitors generally have the same characteristics of a standard monitor, but will have a few extra ones that may not be obvious to those not familiar with them. As these monitors are geared towards gamers, they will have many functions specific to enhancing gameplay and media playback. Outside of these specific functions, though, your needs or wants in a monitor will dictate which specific characteristics are most important to you.
Of course, before choosing any G-Sync monitor, it is important to ensure that your computer hardware supports the G-Sync technology. Specifically, your computer's video card will need to support compatibility with G-Sync. Those who have a recent NVIDIA video card will be able to benefit from the G-Sync enhancements of the monitor, while those who do not will want to upgrade their video card if they want the full benefits of the monitor. Having said that, below are some of the most important characteristics to look for to find the best G-Sync monitor.
Screen Size and Resolution
These two characteristics can often go hand in hand, and are considered to be the two most important characteristics of any type of monitor. The size of the screen will show how large the viewing area of the monitor is, and the resolution will show how detailed the image is according to the number of pixels on the screen. Regardless of which features anyone will want in a monitor, these two characteristics will almost always be the most important.
Panel Type
The type of panel will often play an important part in the characteristics of monitors. The two most common types of panels for G-Sync monitors are TN (Twisted Nematic) and IPS (In-Plane Switching). TN monitors are basically the same as standard LCD displays, and can often have many of the same shortcomings, such as shallow viewing angles and lower response time. IPS displays were built to improve on many of the shortcomings of TN displays, and will often have wider viewing angles and faster response times.
Interfaces
The ports on a monitor will definitely be important to know before purchasing, as you will want to make sure that your computer's video card can connect to the monitor. Most G-Sync monitors include both HDMI and DisplayPort interfaces, which most modern video cards include, but may also have other extra ports such as USB.
Additional Features
Many additional features tend to be included on G-Sync monitors along with the full G-Sync support. Such features as anti-glare screens, tilting and adjustable monitor stands, flicker-free technology, and many other assorted features tend to be included. Choosing the best monitor for your needs may come down to which extra features that you want.
By keeping all of these characteristics in mind, you should be able to easily choose the best G-Sync monitor to enhance your total gaming experience.
Did you know?
Getting the Most From Your Gaming Setup
Having top-end hardware is always the goal of any serious gamer, whether it be just a hardcore gamer who likes winning, or a professional gamer who plays games for a living. While having the best computer equipment is a must, it is far from the only thing that can give an advantage to gamers. There are many other ways to get the best out of your gaming setup, especially when it comes to the positioning of your monitor in relation to the computer. Listed here are a few ways to help you get the best out of your gaming station, in a way that will give you the best advantage possible in whatever games you play.
Ergonomics
An often overlooked aspect of gaming is ergonomics. Having a high-end computer with a gaming mouse and keyboard can go a long way towards gaining an advantage, but any advantages they provide can be cancelled out if the ergonomics of your computer are lacking. Most people think of ergonomics as being important for office work, but really, the ergonomics of your setup can give you a much better advantage than you realize. The best ergonomics will prevent you from experiencing fatigue during long gaming sessions, which can often make the difference in your matches.
A few things must be kept in mind while you setup your computer hardware. Your keyboard and mouse should be placed on a completely flat surface that lets them rest evenly while providing little resistance to movements. The desk should be level and about the same height as the bottom of your rib cage. This should allow your forearm to be level while using the keyboard and mouse. Although many gamers prefer not to use them, using a wrist wrest for both the keyboard and mouse will go a long way in preventing arm and hand strain, and will reduce the risk of carpal tunnel syndrome.
Monitor placement should be just below the center of your eyes while sitting straight up. Not having it level will strain your neck and back muscles, which can lead to quick fatigue during marathon gaming sessions. The monitor brightness should also be enough to clearly show detail, yet not too bright as to cause eye strain. Also, having the monitor positioned just the right distance from your eyes can also prevent eye strain, as well as allowing you to maintain a full view of the monitor without needing to turn your head.
Positioning
Maintaining good ergonomics is always the best practice when using the computer for any reason, but for gaming, there are a few other things you can do as well to ensure that you maintain maximum control over the gaming experience. One of the best ways to do this is with the placement and positioning of your keyboard and mouse. Many serious gamers opt for corded mice and keyboards, as they often prove to be more responsive to input than wireless ones. In this case, where to plug in your mouse and keyboard can be very important. Many of the gaming monitors available, along with all of the models listed here, offer USB 3.0 ports, which are perfect for plugging in your input devices. Having close inputs ensures that your mouse and keyboard won't be hampered by the cable being snagged or stretched, ensuring free movement whenever necessary.
Following this advice should give you the ability to perform at your best in any game, especially during marathon gaming sessions. And it will be easiest to do so with a great gaming monitor.
