Finally purchased a BenQ 24 inch. Saw talks on here awhile back about the difference it makes to play on a monitor, and was wondering what experiences you guys have had. What makes it better than playing on my 65 inch TV? Prolly a little late to ask haha but needed a monitor for work anyways!
Thanks
BenQ is the best!
Does it not have sound capabilities? I’ve been fooling with it for the last hour or so and can’t seem to figure out the volume!

They don’t have built in speakers, you can use external or headphones. You don’t want a monitor with speakers anyway, they always stink.

Thanks for the advice! How do I use headphones? Is there a port on the monitor?

There should be on the left side

I bought a 27' MSI monitor a few weeks ago. The biggest difference I've seen so far is the ability to recognize pitches better. I have a 1MS response time, and my refresh rate is 165. I don't have the lag that I had on my TV. (at least not as often) I still suck, but that's because I suck playing H2H, but I've noticed I've been playing better since I got the monitor.
Same thing was happening to me I was having problems on a TV picking up pitches, now that I'm using the monitor I can see everything better and I'm getting on pitches better than I was

Only spent a few hours playing today, but man what a difference!

Are y’all using HDMI or DVI? Not at home so I don’t know if my PS4 pro has a dvi port even but I know my monitor does lol

Believe it or not ive had a hard time adjusting to a monitor, pitches come in so slowly sometimes i end up early as hell or memorized thinking i have more time than i do and end up late cuz im not actually used to seeing the ball so clearly lol.
I still have that problem, and have had a monitor since AUGUST of 2019. It's driving me crazy. I have no idea how to fix this problem.
Yeah its definitely a weird problem, been thinking of going back to my tv lol

Yep, I got an Asus and the sound (without headphones) is really bad. I was kind of shocked how bad. But they probably don’t put much time into that because most people use headphones.
I was thinking about putting up a thread with my early thoughts on getting a monitor and asking others if they have any tips/tricks. Overall, I like it a lot. Again the natural speaker sound isn’t great and I kind of miss sitting back on my couch.

For regular videogames, I agree sitting on a couch is much better. But this game, or any game you want to be competitive in requires heightened attention which is way better at a desk.

PlayStation only has HDMI.
He could still buy an HDMI to DVI adapter. I have one. Works good

It actually makes a difference? As far as upping the frame rate?

No I’m simply saying that if his monitor only has a DVI input, he can still hook it up to his PS4 via an adapter

Set it to FPS, and that’s about it. All the other settings are really user based.
