For around that price I'd probably get this instead:

Maybe this if you don't care about the higher refresh rate that the above one has:

thanks for your suggestion

i am sorry i didn't mention it but i want an ips monitor so pb277q doesn't interest me

as for viewsonic i think 32 inch monitor would be too big for me as i sit very close to the monitor

there is a 27 inch model which got the same price as the monitor i think on buying so i could afford it

but can you tell me please if there is any particular reason i should avoid buying vz27aq

I'd recommend a higher refresh rate...

Acer ET322QU (31.5") is 75Hz 1440p IPS...but 32" display -- $279.89

next one down is the Acer VG271U (27") 144 Hz 144p IPS, but higher price tag -- $399.99

 

If you can live with 60Hz 1440p IPS...there are definitely better options.

ASUS PB278Q 27" ...100% sRGB -- $325

BenQ BL2420PT 24" -- $229.00

Acer G7 G257HU 25" -- $251

No reason against the VZ27AQ, other than I do not think it's a good value (you can get similar specs for less money). 

 

Therefore, if IPS is a requirement, here are some other alternatives that should fit the bill:
