Tow popular options (and for good reason) are Dell's u2713hm and Asus' PB278Q

 

Both are 27" 1440p

I would go for the PB278Q. Best thing I have ever bought. I made a thread just like this not too long ago if you want to check it out.

A bit overpriced like every asus product imo. I have no doubt it's an excellent monitor but buying the BenQ (which is a great brand) will save me £100/$155

I have a Dell U2713HM and I love it. Great monitor.

it's a 27" 1440p IPS monitor.

 

Edit: I game on it and I don't notice any input lag or any other lag for that matter. I personally don't care for 144Hz, and generally don't like TN-panels color-wise...

I have a PB278Q and it's easily the best part of my build. Everything looks beautiful on it but it does cost quite a bit. I game on it playing a variety of genres and i haven't noticed any input lag; obviously there is some on every monitor but i do not find it noticeable on this.
