VA (gaming) and IPS(editing) combo

Hello, right now i have ViewSonic VP3268-4K for photo and video editing and I would like to buy a  second panel for gaming. Unfortunately 27" would be too small when I got used to 32". Sadly i cant find any 32" 100hz + panel that would be also IPS . Right now i am looking at LG 32GK850G (1440p, 144hz, gsync) which is VA. My question is wouldnt it feel weird constantly switching between VA and IPS ? Does anyone has the same combo ? Thanks

The LG 32GK850g-B is the best VA panel , that has been reviewed, out for gaming. While it lacks HDR it makes up for in being a 'fast' VA panel with good uniformity.

 

Will u notice a difference between it and the IP you have. YES, will it be 'weird' ..no idea, thats subjective.

havnt tried it myself, but if im working on 1 screen and playing games on another, i dont see how the activity has any commonality to compare between.

 

The VA will most certainly look better in dark scenes and when playing in a dimly lit room, and will have superior contrast.

 

If you have a calibrator necessary to ensure a display is accurate to hand, which i would expect you do as ur doing photo and video editing, then u can calibrate the VA panel as well, that way it shouldn't display an overly different image in regards to 'color accuracy' vs the IPS, especially in game as games generally use the sRGB color gamut.
