Good monitor for 3060 ti

[js5836]

I was planning on running this card at 1440p, and I was looking at https://pcpartpicker.com/product/pGqBD3/asus-tuf-gaming-vg27aq-270-2560x1440-165-hz-monitor-vg27aq this monitor for that. I don't really play games that are too intensive, so I think it should be fine hitting those frame rates. The only thing is that the monitor is kind of expensive, are there any cheaper options with comparable specs? (1440p, 27 inch, 144hz or more refresh rate, VA/IPS panel).

If curved screens aren't a problem to you something like the Gigabyte G27QC may be an option.

The Asus VG27AQ isn't a bad monitor at all, but right now I would suggest this one. I'll also add the Asus so you can easily compare the two.

I'll add this table tool so you can do more research if you want to. You can add more filters from the add column button.

And lastly I would suggest you read the sticky as it helps with understanding the reviews.

Yeah I know about that, seems like it has some backlight bleed issues.

Yep I have read that sticky in the past, but that monitor you linked is a bit too expensive for my budget. Thanks though!

It should be around the same price as VG27AQ, but if you can get the Asus for cheaper it's not a bad monitor at all.

Also, I can’t really see the difference between those monitors, could you point that out.

Sure, Lenovo has excellent factory calibration and better response times.

Again, if you can get the Asus for cheaper it's not a bad monitor. It does have slightly better contrast and black uniformity while having good enough factory calibration and response times.

You won't have a problem with either one, Lenovo is just a bit better for the same price (USD).

Every LCD has backlight bleed issues. Every IPS has IPS glow which appears the same as that. You'll get better or worse, but you will ALWAYS find "backlight bleed" issues no matter where you go with LCD - so just gotta accept it.
