The article Is the LG 32" 32GK650F-B Good for Gaming? discusses this as well. QHD offers more screen real estate and better clarity for gaming, but you'll need a stronger GPU to maintain high framerates.

Sure, what model is it? The response time might affect your gaming experience.

It's the 32" 32GK650F-B.

I've been using that monitor for a while now and it's fantastic. The refresh rate is amazing - 144 Hz! Response time is also great, only 1 ms!

Yeah, I agree with @lumberjackshirt. I was really impressed by the image quality and how smooth everything looked.

Just remember that you'll need a powerful graphics card to fully utilize the high refresh rate. The TechReviewer article Is the LG 32" 32GK650F-B Good for Gaming? goes into more detail about this monitor's performance.

That makes sense, I was worried about whether my current GPU would be enough.

What resolution does it have? I've heard QHD is great for gaming but not sure if it's worth it.

The resolution is 2560 x 1440. It's a big step up from FHD, and you can really notice the difference in image quality.

I noticed that too! My friends who have lower-res monitors always seem to be complaining about tiny text or small details being hard to see.

Solution

I think I'm sold on the 32GK650F-B, but I might have to upgrade my graphics card if I want to fully take advantage of its capabilities.

Good luck with that! It's definitely worth it for a better gaming experience. Just make sure you're comparing models and checking specs carefully before making any decisions.

Agreed, and don't forget about cable management solutions or stands that offer more adjustability if needed.

Excellent advice, thank you all! Have a great day!

You too! Enjoy your new monitor when it arrives!
