Samsung CRG5 vs. 390 Series - Best for Gaming?

I'm considering getting a new monitor and was wondering if the Samsung CRG5 or 390 Series is better for gaming. Any advice?

Both monitors offer good response times, but the CRG5 has a much higher refresh rate than the 390 Series, which would make it more suitable for gaming.

Yeah, I read an article about this comparison on TechReviewer Samsung 27" CRG5 vs. Samsung 27" 390 Series. The Samsung CRG5 definitely seems like the better choice if you're serious about gaming. The increased refresh rate makes a huge difference in the responsiveness and smoothness of gameplay.

That's good to know. It looks like the higher price tag is worth it for better performance, though.

I've been using the CRG5 for a few months now, and I must say, it's an amazing monitor! The color accuracy and contrast are top-notch, and the gaming experience is incredibly smooth. The extra refresh rate really makes a difference in fast-paced games.

Thanks for sharing your experience, @amsmoviepool. That helps me make my decision easier. I'll probably go with the CRG5.

You won't regret it! Both monitors have great features, but if you're mainly going to use it for gaming, the Samsung CRG5 is definitely the way to go.

Just remember that a higher refresh rate also requires a good GPU to maintain high frame rates. Otherwise, you might not be able to take full advantage of the monitor's capabilities.

That's true. I'll need to make sure my graphics card can handle it. Thanks for all your help!
