I have been using high hz monitors for a long time, from the Samsung 2233rz to ASUS vg248qe. While I still game I would appreciate more vibrant colors, higher color accuracy and more resolution. All of this adds up to buying an IPS type monitor but the decision is complicated by the new gsync/144hz models.
I would also like to be able to connect my rMBP to the monitor and switch off between desktop and laptop.
I am not totally satisfied with the ASUS vg248qe. The color is way off, the monitor has color shift and viewing angles are pretty horrible (I know this is just describing a TN panel).
a. Buy a semi-professional grade (10bit) IPS in a 2k or 4k variant and keep the ASUS for just gaming.
b. Buy something like Acer XB270HU and sell the ASUS.
c. Buy something like Acer x34 Predator and deal with a lesser gaming experience.
What would you do and why?
Does the Acer XB270HU compete in a semi-professional space to something like a Dell ultrasharp? or are there too many compromises to push the 144hz?
