Looking for a monitor

Greetings,

I am interested in upgrading my honestly terrible current monitor( 1280x720, 17") to something more usable. A 2560x1440 resolution 27" plus is what I'm thinking about. My budget is around £300 but I could push it up a little. Any suggestions would be very welcome.

 The Dell U2515H is a great monitor but if you want a 27", get the Asus PB277Q.

What gpu do you currently have? Going to 2k on a lower end card wouldn't be a great use of your money.

Im considering this monitor (PB277Q) as well. Upgrading from 1080p IPS 60hz. Only Concern is that its TN. Upside its 1440p and 75hz.

A GTX 1070 and I5 4670k will handle 1440P and 75hz ok?

Hmmm, probably not on max settings, maybe high/medium
