What about the Dell UltraSharp UP2414Q

Was going to sugest that as probably your best option, the problem is probably nobody has tried it yet on this forum.

 

I've found a website with 4 user reviews giving 5 stars on it.

Thats what I was looking at

It's pretty much your only option AFAIK.

Or you could wait a month or so, and go for the Samsung U28D590P. This is a 28" UltraHD Monitor with 60Hz@UHD with MST.

Thanks for the welcome, I am more active on German hardware forums, but I thought why not be also active on LTT, if I watch Linus Youtube Videos and Wan Show.

 

If you will buy a UHD just in august, I would just wait, because I think there will be some new UHD monitors in the next time.

 

But the Samsung seems really promising, just 600€ here in Germany.

I would wait for G-sync...

It'll make it look much nicer, and more monitors are coming out shortly.

It will be TN, but Samsung says 1ms reactiontime (g2g). I know you can't take this for granted, but this is a good indicator this will be a good gaming monitor.

But just wait for good monitortests, I think prad and tftcentral are also avaible in english, these are the two websites I trust in monitorreviews.

The only problem about the samsung is the stand, it looks like a cheap, wobbly one and i don't think it has a vesa mount; Its also TN and glossy panel (may bother some)

I would suggest an TN panel, but many many people would disagree, and say that TN is garbage and you always should buy an IPS Panel etc etc.

About the glossy panel : "very light matte (‘semi glossy’) anti-glare screen surface"

Didn't see that, still reflective and IPS would be better, it has more colour depth etc: http://www.cnet.com/uk/topics/monitors/buying-guide/
