Monitor panel and resolution

[TheUser11]

I'm looking to buy a new monitor and I do not know witch panel to pick or what resolution.

I want at least 144hz refresh rate and 27' screen size.

I'm a casual gamer. I play singleplayer games such as Assasins Creed, Far Cry... and FPS games (Rainbow six, CS GO...)

For the panel i'm up for any as long as it has good color reproduction.Can be a TN but my current monitor (Benq XL2411z dosen't have that).

As for resolution I'm split between 1080p and 1440. I would play single player games in 1440 and other in 1080 (for more FPS). Is it worth the upgrade?

 

My setup is GTX 1080ti , i5 7600k and 16 GB of RAM and the buget is 500€

Thank you for answers!

Are you sure you want to game at 1440p because the price of monitor is twice the price of a 1080p monitor 144hz 1ms 27" and what have you

[Turtle Rig]

Here 27" 1ms 144hz 1440p

If you can do 1440P then do it, with a 1080Ti you can still get v solid frames

At 27" a 1080p monitor will start to look...pixelated.

IMO, 24" is as large I would for for 1080p resolution; beyond that size, and you want to jump over to 1440p.

I've read some articles about it and I saw it has a little bit better color gamut than my benq. I think that it is too low and I am willing to pay more for better specs.

Thank you for your recommendation anyways.

It would depend on the pricing in your region...but...

• Acer XG270HU
• MSi Optix MAG27CQ
• ASUS MG279Q or MG278Q

Do you think the TN panel based ones can provide good color reproduction? I know they can't be like IPS ones but still. There is a 100€ difference between Asus ones and I don't know if it is worth it.

I'm running two ASUS MG248QR monitors right now, and don't have any complaints about the color.

Of course, IPS will be better, but an extra 100 seems a bit steep.
