If you have the cash to drop over £1k on a GPU and the same again for the CPU, there is a good chance you want the best monitor on the market regardless of the cost. At the moment that gives you two choices, the ASUS 27″ ROG Swift 4K HDR which will set you…
While Big Format Gaming Displays (BGFD) sound amazing they will be quite niche due to their size and price. Asus may have a great alternative with the ROG Strix XG438Q which is a a 43-inch DisplayHDR 600 screen which offers 90% coverage of the DCI-P3 colour space and support for local dimming and 120Hz refresh…
Last year Nvidia announced the Big Format Gaming Display that were 65-inches and capable of 4K HDR at 120 Hz. No products have materialised from that announcement in 2018, but it looks like HP will be one of the first to deliver. The monster HP Omen X Emperium uses a 64.5-inch 8-bit AMVA panel featuring…
Most of the monitors I cover are either budget orientated such as the 27-inch AOC or gaming focused like the Acer Z35, or a bit of both like the Acer Nitro RG2170. However professional users require something a little different if you are doing design or photography of any sort you need a monitor that…
During my time with the well-priced entry-level Nitro N50 gaming PC, I was using the Acer Nitro RG270 gaming monitor that was sent with it. This is an attractive slim bezel AMD FreeSync enabled 27-inch monitor running at 1920 x 1080p with a refresh rate of 75 Hz. Some gaming communities might immediately dismiss a…
4K monitors have become increasingly common and at an affordable price, but a large number of them are 27″, which is OK for gaming but for office work you have to using scaling which then reduces the screen real estate benefits of 4K. LG is starting to introduce larger 4K screens at an affordable price point…
Sit-stand desks have become very popular in the past few years, I have reviewed several convenient options that convert your existing design to sit stand, but the StarTech option today is a little different. This is a wall mounted Sit-Stand Desk that includes a monitor arm and keyboard tray, if you don’t fancy drilling holes in your wall…

As much as we like to yearn for ultra-wide high refresh rate or 4K monitors, in reality for most of us, this is beyond our budget, both in terms of the monitor price and the PC required to run it. If you are a gamer on a budget, then 1080p is still your best bet,…
Dell is one of the first companies to release 4K HDR monitors to the market. The UP2718Q that I have been loaned to review is one of 2 models that have HDR and is the one with the best HDR credential, and price to match. Costing an eye-watering £1,200 this is aimed squarely at professionals,…
The past 2 weeks I have been using the Acer XF270HUA 27″ monitor for my main screen, which is an AMD FreeSync enabled IPS display that can run at 144Hz with a resolution of 2560×1440. It is priced at £499.99 making it quite affordable for its specification. Based on a brief amount of research I…
The Dell UltraSharp U2518D appears to be the successor to Dells universally praised U2515H, and I have been reviewing the monitor the past 2 weeks. The U2518D employs a similar InfinityEdge bezel as the recently reviewed XPS 13 hybrid making it physically quite small for a 25” monitor. It runs at 2560 x 1440 at…
