Which monitor for ETS?

#1 Post by Fuerstensohn » 14 Dec 2017 14:46

Hello,

i just bought a new gaming computer and now i was wondering what kind of monitor are you guys using or which one you would choose for playing ets2?
I'm thinking about a 4K monitor or an ultra-wide one with 21:9. Which one is better for ETS2 and performance or for future?

Hi, i 'm currently using the Asus VG248QE Gaming monitor. I would prefer and ultrawide monitor, but it depends on what you 're doing besides Ets2. If you have a productivity setup, go with the ultrawide, if you use your setup for gaming only go with the 4k i think. But before you buy the 4k, make sure your pc is strong enough :D

Greets,

thanks for your reply! ;)
I think the computer should be strong enough with a GTX1080 ti , but i'm not sure how ets2 looks on a 4K monitor, or how some 1080p games look on it. Maybe someone has experiences with it?

I've seen some 4K images and it looks great, what's your price range?

If you play mostly cars/trucks games, ultrawide can be a must.
If it's a mix of fps, ETS... 1440p would do.

4k is useful for big screens, but I think is too much for a 27-30 inches screen.

A fast screen (100-144 hz) with gsync or freesync would be prefered, for a "smooth" experience.

I have a dell S2716G with a GTX1080ti, runs ETS2/ATS at 100fps or so constantly.

hm i think around 500 € for the monitor.

@dede62

thank you! It's a very difficult decision because before i had a iMac 5K which had a great picture but i couldn't play games on it...
Ultrawide does look really really nice but i'd like to have also a good quality for movies etc. on my Computer. :)
