aziz37 Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 Hey everyone!! I'm looking to buy a new monitor and would like to know if AOC Monitors are good or not. I was thinking of getting Samsung, so which would be better? Also my graphics card is a GTX 550Ti. So I was wondering what's the maximum resolution at which the GTX 550Ti can run games with full graphics? Will it be able to run games like Crysis 2 at 1920x1080 resolution (21.5" monitors), or at 1360x768 resolution (18.5" monitors)? which will be better? AOC or Samsung? and 21.5" or 18.5"? thanks in advance!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
My_Inner_Fred Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 The GTX 550Ti's max resolution is 2560x1600. I prefer larger monitors for gaming, a 21" will do fine. I highly recommend ASUS as a monitor brand, I have used a couple of their monitors and their all great in quality. I don't think your GPU can run Crysis on Maximum settings at 1920x1080. Maybe at a lower resolution it can but not at full HD res. My GTX 460 can run it on Max settings at full HD with some lag but it gets smoother when I overclock it.

Darth_Tom Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 Another thumbs up for Asus. I'm using their 21.5" LED monitor. No dead or stuck pixels, and I haven't noticed anything else wrong. The only I actually searched for was the pixels, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoopa Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 I had a AOC V22, which I believe was the companies first LED backlit offering, and perhaps the first LED backlit monitor on the market at the time which is why I bought it... and it had visible color banding/gradients, especially on skin tones. It made porn look awful. Moving skin would make a rhythmic rainbow pattern appear which was green/red/yellow in appearance. Just a FYI. I haven't seen any of their recent monitors however.

Krieg1337 Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 My 23" LED Samsung is just amazing. The colors are great on this. My 19" is also pretty good. Never heard about AoC either, although 18.5" is kind of small. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaporX Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 If you get Samsung or LG you will not go wrong. Asus has of late had some awesome monitors and if I am right LG is the one making them for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
