Looking for a replacement for Dell S2417DG

Hey guys,

 

I'm looking into replacing my Dell S2417DG monitor and I was wondering, what are the current recommendations out there. I would like it to stay 24", 1440p, higher refresh rate and G-Sync (or at least Freesync with NVIDIA G-Sync support).

 

The reason I'm looking into replacing is that the S2417DG has just awful color calibration. Out of the box, the gamma is too high and there is no OSD buttons to change it, so I need to manually use the NVIDIA panel to tweak the gamma down to 0.70, which likes to reset as I'm using a laptop and the monitor gets disconnected a lot (that's why I can't also use most of the profile keeper tools also) + some games straight out ignore that setting. Not to mention, Additionally, as result of this, the blacks or darker areas in the game start to get minor color branding (but enough that it annoys me)
