Test method: gaming monitors
Each of the five gaming monitors in the test has to be in the rating categories Image quality (40%), Ergonomics (20%), Amenities (20%), Energy efficiency (10%) and Services (10%) prove. We measure the image quality with the spectroradiometer Konica Minolta CS-2000 and the CalMAN Studio software and determine, among other things, brightness, contrast, color temperature, image homogeneity and viewing angle stability.
are important in a gaming display low response times. In order to determine this under conditions that are as realistic as possible, we measure them signal delay when transferring the image signal from the graphics card to the monitor (input lag).
Key Features: Input Lag and Adaptive Sync
In addition to interfaces and gaming features such as FreeSync, G-Sync, the equipment also includes high refresh rates and extras such as HDR support, the available image modes, frame counters, speakers or light sensors that adjust the monitor brightness to the ambient light.
For a high ergonomics rating the monitor must have one blue light filter as well as have a flicker-free panel and be as flexible as possible – at least it should be tiltable and height-adjustable.
