Sometimes it was known exactly what the gaming monitor is and what kind of features it brings, because these features were not so much. Today there are many more types, primarily whether it’s a TN or IPS gaming monitor, whether it has a 16: 9 or 21: 9 ratio of pages, whether it has FreeSync or G-Sync support.

Although you do not need to have the most powerful graphics such as when playing in 4K, it is advisable to have Nvidia graphics model of the new generation in order to have the support of the G-Sync which is available on this monitor.
A great thing that will attract many consumers is the refresh rate of even 180Hz.
