Larger isn't strictly better — it should match your desk distance and resolution.
Higher resolution means sharper detail, but requires more GPU power to drive at high frame rates.
Higher refresh rates show motion more smoothly — but only if your GPU can produce enough frames to match.
IPS panels generally offer the best color accuracy and viewing angles; VA offers stronger contrast; TN is fastest but weakest on color.
Lower values reduce motion blur in fast-moving scenes.
Strengths
- Matches well with balanced-tier GPUs
- Great detail and color for both gaming and creative work
