LG 27GL83A-B vs. Asus VG27AQGL1A for Gaming Responsiveness?

I'm looking to buy a new monitor and was wondering which one would be better for gaming responsiveness, the LG 27GL83A-B or the Asus VG27AQGL1A? Any advice?

Hi @myotaku92, both of these monitors seem like great options for gaming! Have you checked out this article on TechReviewer about their comparison? LG 27" 27GL83A-B vs. Asus 27" VG27AQGL1A It might help you make your decision.

Yeah, I read the article @GameBoyAde shared. The Asus VG27AQGL1A has a better refresh rate at 170Hz compared to the LG 27GL83A-B's 144Hz. That could be a crucial factor for gaming responsiveness. What do you think?

Thanks for the input, @Livinglifelite. So it looks like the Asus monitor might be the better choice then? But what about response time? I've heard that can also impact gaming performance.

Hey everyone, just to clarify, both the LG 27GL83A-B and Asus VG27AQGL1A have a response time of 1ms. So they're pretty much neck and neck in that department.

Oh, I didn't realize that. Thanks for the info @tater2428. So it seems like the better refresh rate on the Asus monitor could be the deciding factor for gaming responsiveness. Does anyone have personal experience with either of these monitors?

I've used both and personally, I found the Asus VG27AQGL1A to provide a smoother gaming experience due to its higher refresh rate. But it ultimately depends on your specific needs and budget.

Thanks for the advice everyone. Based on what you've said, I think I'll go for the Asus VG27AQGL1A. But I'm also curious about other factors that could affect gaming responsiveness, like screen resolution or color accuracy. Any tips?

@myotaku92, both monitors have the same screen resolution and color capability, so those won't be factors in this decision. However, refresh rate and response time are the key elements to consider for gaming responsiveness.

Okay, thanks again everyone. I'll go ahead and purchase the Asus VG27AQGL1A. I'm excited to see how it performs in my games!

Congrats on your choice @myotaku92! Let us know how you like the new monitor once it arrives.

Will do, thanks!
