I bought a xb271hu from Acer's site a while back and it came damaged.

 

It came with a screen blemish that is purple on dark screens, right in your FOV

This spot is unbearable for games with dark palates (Metro, HL. RE2 Remake) so I have been avoiding games like that.

I would rather game, so I have saved around 400 USD for a new monitor. I will have another 200 soon

 

I just cant decide on G-sync or Free-sync, since I have a GTX 1080, (so I can use "G'sync on a freesync monitor such as the AROUS monitor)

What would 1440p Variable refresh rate, IPS monitors would you recommenced? Acer monitors are a no go

 

*forgot to mention, I cant get an RMA or repair from ACER

They said their site doesnt cover that, and they only do RMAs and the like on Amazon, Newegg, etc
