2560p Gaming Monitor

[BriniaSona]

What is the ideal monitor for 2560p gaming right now. I would like something over 60HZ if possible. Just throw me a list of monitors that isn;t from some main stream website like "PCGamer dot come" or something.

This is primarily for gaming as I know adding the word "design" to a monitor means a 1000 dollar price jump.

there are very few 2560p monitors, its basically 5k.

 

Do you mean 1440p for 2560x1440?

my bad, 2160p

 

EDIT: or do you think 1440p is a btter choice right now?

whats the rest of your system?

 

FOr gaming, id say 2560x1440 at 144 refresh rate is the sweet spot between price, image quality, and system requirements.

1080ti, 3900X two 256gb NVME, a 500GB SSD, 1000w psu, a bunch of noctua fans, and a big arse cooler master case.

I want to get a 3080ti/super/makeup your mind nvidia, but am not sure of the price, I just lost a monitor though and am searching for a new one right now.

The 27" QHD IPS and 28" 4k 1ms ones here seem fine to me. But, I just wanted to see what others through on thier choices.

So that not a 4k monitor, thast 2560x1440.

 

Id go 144 refresh rate if you can, really makes games smoohter.

 

How about this guy? https://www.amazon.ca/Dell-27-Inch-LED-Lit-Monitor-S2719DGF/dp/B00N2L5CXO/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2QLONLOVGSHC3&dchild=1&keywords=1440p+144hz&qid=1592688588&s=electronics&sprefix=1440%2Celectronics%2C205&sr=1-1

Yeah, I was checking that one out too. Maybe I should wait on true 4k and stick with qhd for now.

yea id go 2560x1440 for now. 2160p 144 monitors are very rare and epensive, and need a very high end gpu to drive.

What is your budget?
