Hey all

 

I am considering to Buy 2 more screens to make a 3 screen setup I already have this monitor http://www.asus.com/Monitors_Projectors/VG278H/

And i am considering to buy 2 of http://www.samsung.com/sg/consumer/pc-peripherals-printer/monitor/led-monitor/LS27C590HS/XS

 

Which costs 310 USD

or

http://www.asus.com/Monitors_Projectors/VN279QLB/

 

Which costs 489,47 USD

But i am Wondering if it is worth buying the VN279QLB, Because it have a 75Hz refresh rate, Display Port

 

Also i Have a question, What is different between an IPS and PLS panel ?

 

 

OR

 

Wait for G-Synk and 4K ?

if you have a very high end GPU. I say, wait for G-Sync and 4k.

If not then you might go for a 3 monitor setup. 
BOTTOMLINE: you won't regret either of your decisions.

The 75Hz refresh rate won't matter. You won't be running new AAA titles above 60FPS unless you have an insane setup. 

 

From what I've heard, there is very little difference between IPS and PLS. They are both better than TN though. 

 

I'd say go for 2 more of the monitors you already have, or it'll look ugly.

Thanks for fast reply, And i got a GTX 680 4GB Verson soo i think it will do ok but not like BF4 Ultra or somtning like that. And i Think it will be a while before we can get a 60Hz 4K monitor for a good price

A GTX 680 will do about 45FPS at medium settings on BF3. It will be slightly less on BF4

if can wait, since you have a GTX 680 you can use G sync!.  What you could do is get one G sync Monitor and one with out .
  Then at least that way you have one with no Stutter when gaming or doing anything high demanding on the GPU :)

If you do go for G-Sync, wait for IPS

iSaeko: Yes true i probably wont make more then 60Fps anyway so that is out of the picture

And get 2 more screens of the same type is not a option cause they cost 716,1 USD when i bought it. So that is not an option and it is TN

 

Hmm i am not sure if to wait or not, cause i think it will be a while until we can get 60Hz, 4K And display port at a cheap price, so i think i will just buy 2 monitors, but i have still not figured out which one to buy yet

 

Update: i think i am going for 2 of these
