need some recommends for a decent 27"+ monitor

[xreaperx22]

hi all im in need of some ideas for the cheapest 27" or bigger 1440p curved monitor lol budget is flexible but need the cheapest possible a few friends of mine are doing our own scrapyard wars type of thing but just for fun not for views lol

anyways 200 to 299 is about the limit i think that i could stretch to,i have like 7 days so there should be ample time.already looked through all craigs listings near me and zero...im in a town thats not exactly pc savvy most peeps here you ask for a 1440p monitor and they look at you dumbfounded lol i do have a microcenter that about 50 miles from here but jeez that drive is insane traffic wise,but im hoping amazon can save my bacon lol i have there prime service so i get free 2 day shipping on most of there stuff....back to what i need it has to be curved and has to be 1440p gamer type i suppose but i dont think it needs to have 1ms and 240hz and all that besides those specs will cerainly be in the 400+ range anyways oh and no TN panels,the "judges" said it would be too easy so anything but TN....figures! only thing i came up with is this one https://www.amazon.com/AOC-AG273QCX-FreeSync-DisplayHDR-DisplayPort/dp/B07MJCF5N4/ref=sr_1_8?keywords=27+inch+1440p+curved&qid=1565360459&s=electronics&sr=1-8 anyone think this is decent? i know one of the tests will be gaming so i figured this would be pretty decent.also as a bonus i can keep for myself! lol

This is the new version of the monitor I have and I love it. its $320 though but it checks all your other boxes plus its 144hz https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-32-inch-Curved-Monitor-LC32JG50QQNZA/dp/B07FQMBWQG/ref=sr_1_1?gclid=Cj0KCQjws7TqBRDgARIsAAHLHP59vM_AjX6aFJecsgvxRNqr18kLFXinNMDBHCSpyJ9Mfa7ssYxQTpkaAoN5EALw_wcB&hvadid=318709863116&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9031523&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t1&hvqmt=e&hvrand=5603414875696575556&hvtargid=aud-649564993678%3Akwd-526833244039&hydadcr=8462_11032037&keywords=c32jg50&qid=1565362978&s=gateway&sr=8-1

sadly it doesn’t. but that is why it costs 320 instead of the 5oo mind cost

true lol im also trying to slide HDR in there if possible even if its the minimum HDR 10 lol it would be bonus points.

also on a side note can HDR be passed through dvi? or only hdmi on older gpu's?

I don’t think it can work through dvi, but that is just a guess. I’m pretty sure it doesn’t have the bandwidth. The monitor is only 300 nits so hdr support is bs on it.

400 nitts is really good for a non $800 gaming monitor. I didn’t see the link you provided, it looks better than the Samsung.
