ok im watching you tube video of 144hz with lightboost and i still see motion blur /tearing

raknarius · Dec 30, 2013

sure maybe its half as much as the ips panel but whene he rotates you can see multiple blurs all over and im thinking maybe ips is the way to go since even on a 144hz lightboost enabled screen you still have half the motion blur / tearing, anyone whos actually used or saw one in real life have any comment.

btw you can hit pause on the video and see all the blur during a rotation etc

It's not something that can be demonstrated through a Youtube video. It basically gives LCD's CRT properties, theres no image retention so theres no perceivable blur at all, downside is your colours look even crappier than a normal TN display.

cookybiscuit :

There is no inherent reason that Lightboost has to cause poor colors, but the current Lightboost monitors do. The new G-sync monitors are supposed to fix, or at least greatly improve that problem. At least that is what has been said. Lightboost was meant for 3D gaming, it just turned out it was used in 2D, which might account for the poor colors, as in 3D, it is used with glasses with tinting.

OP: Lightboost has nothing to do with tearing. V-sync fixes tearing. Motion blur on a video comes in two fold. Your monitors motion blur is still in effect, and the camera videoing the display also causes motion blur. Youtube videos are also at 30 FPS.

This is something you must see in person to know how it works.

Are you trying to decide about what type of monitor to get, between an IPS and a 144Hz with Lightboost?

raknarius · Dec 30, 2013

yea problem is im considering 27 inch 1440p or 1900 x 1200 I think resolution is king and neither of those resolutions come in 120/144 hz so its a trade off that I really cant decide

cookybiscuit · Dec 30, 2013

Qnix/X-Star monitors do 1440p 120Hz with luck, 96Hz guaranteed.

huilun02 · Dec 30, 2013

You're going to need one hell of a GPU setup to make use of 120/144Hz at those kinds of resolution anyway.

If you're only concerned with watching videos you will better appreciate the bigger, more colorful pictures of a big IPS screen. They are not bad for gaming at all. Lightboost is only useful in games to eliminate ghosting when the monitor gets enough frames per second to make the 120Hz.

Not necessarily, requirement is no bigger than 60Hz 1440p, you don't need 120FPS to reap the benefits of 120Hz.

Watch this video and a lil way through it he explains tearing and how your card buffers, along with the sending of the info to the monitor.

ahh so the fram splitting I see on videos is not real its perceived because of there recording and my limited playback options

Here is a video that shows how sharp a strobed monitor is when You move a text window or move the mouse on Battlefield.

It shows 60Hz, 144Hz and finally 120Hz strobed.
