Hey thinking about getting a 27 inch 1440p monitor with GSync. Other than the normal movie watching and web surfing im starting to play games more often(Fortnite, waiting for the new Resident Evil and maybe some Friday the 13th and Battlefield when it comes out) Thinking about getting one of these

Any suggestions? Not sure if anything new has come out in the size and resolution.

The Asus you linked is the only one you posted with an IPS panel.

If you want better color accuracy (though it's still a gaming monitor, so don't expect anything too great), or if you want better viewing angles. The IPS panel will be the one you want.

TN panels are a bit faster, but worse colors, and generally terrible viewing angles, so if you ever view your monitor at any angle besides STRAIGHT on, you'll have distorted colors.

Reading is fine on 1440p. No issues here for me. I have a Dell 2716dg which is a 27 inch gsync monitor. It's not an IPS panel but with some searching for color settings I was able to make it nice and vibrant to my liking. Definitely much better than a 1080p monitor.

I have the Acer, bought it May 2017 to use for gaming, mostly WoW and it is fine for me.

Just got the Asus PG279g so far so good dont see any blb. Just a little but of the IPS glow in the right corner. So far this looks like a winner in this panel lottery.
