What is the best monitor for 3D

[b4thman]

I am building a 2nd computer for another place, and I want to have also the best possible 3D monitor that I can get today. My 1st computer is with Dell S2716DG monitor and in general I am happy (maybe it is not the best), but my question is:

What would be your best monitor choice today to use with 3D Vision?

Just a monitor to use the computer in a normal way, but good for 3D Vision (no HMD, no proyector).

ASUS PG278QR

What Lysander said, best 3d monitor bar none.

Not possible to find Asus PG278QR here in Europe. I am looking and I can not even find my own monitor either (Dell s2716dg). I suspect both monitors have the same panel.

Maybe more luck with PG27VQ model.

The PG278Q without the R is OK too. (No HDMI / No audio jack)

HDMI is not present on new Nvidia Card anyway and adaptator won't work in 3D, I've tried.

I got 7 3D monitors:
ASUS PG278QR (Good)
ACER Predator XB270HB (Bad)
ACER GN276 (Bad)
ASUS VG248QR (Average)
ASUS VG248QE (Bad)
ASUS 2233RZ (Average)
ACER GD245HQ/GD235HZ (Quite good but Neon Backlight, so no LightBoost)

In europe you can ask for a sent back for any internet purchases, 14 days after receiving, and 14 more days to send it back, you will only pay the return postage, so you can test several monitors for almost a mounth with my Crosstalk Rabbit Test, and send them back if you don't like them.


Here some list of 3D monitors:

Old Post: (Early 2018)

So I've received the ASUS 27" ROG Swift PG278QR:




-----------------------------


Modes: (GameVisual)


Scenery = No Gamma Setting (Gamma is to low so it's to bright)

Racing = No Saturation Setting (Great calibration, RGB colors are settable, but it's bland, so I will use this one for correct colors and boost Digital Vibrance to 55% in the Nvidia Panel)

Cinema = No Gamma Setting (Gamma is to low so it's to bright)

RTS/RPG = All Settings (Too much boost of the Green color)

FPS = All Settings (Too much boost of the Red color)

RGV = Almost no Settings... (Too much of everythings)


-----------------------------


Some 2D and 3D settings seems to be separated, so you can modify your settings in 3D, without change your 2D settings. (like the Contrast)


My Settings of the Racing Mode:

- Blue light filter 0 (I like blue)

- Brigtness 0 (to get the best black level)

- Contrast 50 (over that white are burned)

- Saturation not settable in this mode, Digital Vibrance to 55% in Nvidia Panel (I like it colored)

- Color Temp Red and Blue at 100 and Green at 95

- Gamma 2.5 (All 3 settings are ok, but 2.5 boost contrast)

- I haven't test the OverDrive yet.

- I have disable the "Adaptative Contrast Control", I don't like my setting been variable. But it's very controlable, you can set the limit of variation and the power of the variation.

- Dark Boost 0 (It look like a gamma setting for dark, all setting are ok, but I like my dark, well... dark)

- You can set OFF the stand red halo in System Setup go to the bottom and set Light in motion to OFF.

- LightBoost at 50% in 3D (but every setting are ok)


--------------------------


Crosstalk (Ghost) (50% Contrast and 50% Lightboost)




FYI: Perfect 3D is not seeing the rabbit at all.

Ok so I translate that:

White are quite good, small reverse ghosting on the top (black become white) and color ghosting is not really noticable (clear blue/green) and sadely full ghost on the bottom.

Gray is not good at all, again color ghosting (clear yellow/orange) and full ghost all over the screen.

Black is quite ok, some full ghost, that's not that bad.

Full Black is also quite good, some full ghost at the bottom.


-------------------------


All Contrast for Ghosts spotting (up to 50, after it's burned)

On White

On Gray

Not much intrusive color and reverse ghosting here.


------------------------


If you have read until here, first thanks, second you wont be disappointed:


After some testing see the difference with 30% Contrast 100% Lightboost:





As you can see:

White is even better, no reverse ghosting just clear full ghost, no colors ghost.

Gray is a lot clearer too, still some color ghost (yellow).

Black and Full Black are almost the same as earlier. (But even better if you low the Lightboost)


Here what it does:

Contratst 50% and Lightboost 50% vs Constrast 30% and Lightboost 100%





Less Crosstalk on the bottom and the Hook ghost is no more there !!!
