Oh okay.. but Asus also claims to have some 0,5ms speed (Tn) and from what I've heard of the Spectre one probably has that number higher because It's budget IPS?

Budget IPS gona be way more likely to have backlight bleeding and bad IPS glow.

Cheap TN panels will just have really dull colors but no real issues.

But I trust asus over sceptre anytime

Hi, I was looking to buy one of those 2 monitors and I wanted to know which one is better and why tho? Also im mainly gaming and thats it. Also i have Nvidia GPU

Here they are:

Spectre:

Asus:

The Sceptre has (thoretically) a better panel but probably a much worse stand. 

 

The Asus claims full G-Sync compatibility whereas the Sceptre makes no such claims and the manufacturer hedges in response to this being brought up in the customer Q&A on the Amazon page. 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

The best thing you can do, with any monitor on the market.

Is remove stand, get mechanical arm, even the amazon basics one for $120 is perfect, boom +dramatic desk real estate regained +clean look +move/rotate to hearts content
