Hey Everyone...

 

well i know i opened a thread for monitor suggestion quite a while back.. but back then i didnt have a budget so i was going for the best... but now im in need of a monitor and also i bought a Graphics card so i have very little amount to spare... so want to buy a good monitor under 500$.... 

 

my need for the monitor is for mostly gaming and video editing and photo editing work... i do editing stuff pretty regularly.. so color reproduction is also important...

 

and the size of monitor im looking for is a 27inch 1440p screen... 

 

so is there a good gaming monitor with ips panel? i know its a pretty weird question.. but if there is i will surely get it...

 

so please give me some suggestions...

I hear HP makes a nice 1440P monitor and so does Dell (probably the one you were looking at)

 

A last resort is a Korean 1440P monitor on eBay lol
