Buy new 1440p monitor

kisserik93 · 23 Apr 2020 at 11:10

Hello!

I want to buy a monitor. I ask you to help me choose based on the following:
- Usage: games, filming (less often), everyday use (internet, programming, ...)
- Resolution: I want: 2560 × 1440 with minimum 144Hz
- Panel: I'm a little in trouble here because I don't really know which might be the more ideal choice (IPS vs VA). I would ask for some guidance in this.
- Monitor size: minimum 27 inches, but I prefer 31.5 inches (27-32)
- Other: I have an Nvidia video card (RTX 2080) so I want G-Sync monitor. I know that FreeSync already works with nvidia cards and if there is no downside to G-Sync then FreeSync is fine.
Response time should be acceptable

- Amount: Max about 600 £, but if it seems unnecessary to invest such an amount, please let me know
Do I still need to describe something?

Thank you very much for your help.

Single player games, for example: Assassin's Creed

I think you’d benefit from something like a VA panel then - greater contrast, and the higher pixel response times of IPS, and to a greater extent TN, aren’t as important.

So maybe a 32KG850G?
