The season has finally arrived! The " Tokyo Game Show 2023," a festival where gamers from Japan and around the world gather, has made a complete comeback for the first time in four years, using the entire Makuhari Messe, and is drawing a lot of excitement both on site and on social media. This time, I would like to report on the booth of I-O DATA, a precision equipment manufacturer that is the pride of my hometown, Ishikawa Prefecture!
A large collection of high-spec monitors!
Here we are at the I-O DATA booth! This year's theme is "esports Cafe", and the booth is mainly exhibiting " GigaCrysta ", a brand that offers a wide range of high-quality gaming monitors.
If you like FPS, refresh rate and response time are your priority!
This is the 24.5" gaming monitor " LCD-GC253U ". It uses a TN panel with a fast response time of 0.4ms (GTG). The LCD-GC253U is a gaming monitor with a fast response time of 0.4ms (GTG). It delivers a clear image with little afterimage even in fast-moving situations such as FPS and action games.
The resolution is 1,920 x 1,080 and the maximum refresh rate is 240Hz. At the booth, we tried "Apex Legends" and "Rainbow Six Siege," which were rendered so smoothly and clearly that we felt no stress at all. The monitor is also ideal for games such as "Valorant" and "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive" where response time and refresh rate are more important than resolution.
When choosing a monitor, one may wonder, "Can I actually feel the refresh rate and response time? This is not an inexpensive purchase. The best way to get the most out of your gaming monitor is to choose a monitor with a refresh rate of 240Hz or higher!
This is the " LCD-GC251RXAB," which offers a maximum refresh rate of 360Hz, one of the most advanced monitors on the market today. However, it is a good idea to purchase a new monitor when graphics boards are getting cheaper.
I was impressed by the slippery feeling that made me want to keep leaning left and right all the time. It's more slippery than the real world anymore.
There are various theories about the difference between 240Hz and 360Hz, such as "it is meaningless because the human eye cannot feel the difference" and "it is advantageous because the delay is shorter", but when I tried 240Hz after 10 minutes of using 360Hz, I felt However, when I tried 240Hz after 10 minutes of playing at 360Hz, I felt that it was not enough. The members who do not usually play PC games thought, "Aren't both the same? So, it seems that there are sensations and familiarity that only the operator can understand.
Thanks to frame generation functions such as NVIDIA DLSS 3 and AMD FSR 3, which are currently being developed in real-time, we can expect PC games to become increasingly easier to produce frame rates in the future. Bigger is better! If you go to the trouble of purchasing a new monitor, by all means, go for 360Hz!
For MMORPGs and MOBAs, screen size and resolution are important!
MMORPGs and MOBAs are all about the information on the screen. Screen size and resolution are more important than refresh rate and response time.
The LCD-GCWQ341XDB is an ultra-wide monitor with a resolution of 3,440 x 1,440, which can display about 2.4 times the amount of information as a typical Full HD monitor with a resolution of 1,920 x 1,080. This monitor is ideal for those who cannot have dual monitors due to their desks, but still want to display a lot of information. I highly recommend it for those who play "Final Fantasy XIV" and "League of Legends," which I also love to play!
Play Street Fighter 6 on that device!
Playing Street Fighter 6 with I-O DATA booth staff! The " LCD-GC243HXDB " monitor with ADS panel, which has a wide viewing angle for vivid images, and the " Creative T60 " hi-fi desktop speakers will make you forget all the noise of TGS and give you an immersive experience.
And then there's the one at hand...
The Razer Kitsune is a new, unreleased product from Razer! Razer's ultra-thin, leverless controller has a shorter actuation point, further enhancing the leverless advantage of quick responsiveness. We can't wait for its release on Friday, September 29, 2023..!
Rare opportunity to compare monitors.
While you may be able to try out the monitors at electronics retailers, it is rare to have the opportunity to compare such high-spec devices side by side. In an age when even home game consoles such as the PS5 and Xbox Series X can output 4K/120fps, the demand for high-spec monitors is expected to increase in the future.
