Picking between two monitors for gaming

Acer XF270HU Cbmiiprzx 27” WQHD (2560 x 1440) TN Monitor with AMD FREESYNC Technology |144Hz Refresh Rate | 1ms | (Display Port 1.2 & 2 x HDMI Ports)

vs 

LG 27GL83A-B 27 Inch Ultragear QHD IPS 1ms NVIDIA G-SYNC Compatible Gaming Monitor

 

Ignoring price which one would be the best? 

I know that the LG has a Faster setting which is preferred over the Fastest due to some Coronas. I am unsure what the response time is on the faster setting. 

I also am unsure if the Acer monitor has Coronas at it's advertised 1ms and I'll be playing that with less response time regardless.

 

Without price being involved which monitor would you pick (keep in mind it will only be used for gaming)?

lg has ips panel... IPS has much better color reproduction and great viewing angles, so it also makes it great for watching movies

You also get G-sync but that probably makes it quite expensive.

Review seems good for it as well : https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/lg/27gl83a-b

 

So i personally would get it, if money is no object.
