yeah the Gigabyte M28U  is a good monitor.

what do u think about the 

ASUS ROG Strix XG27UQ 27'' UHD IPS G-Sync

the XG27UQ and the M28U are about the same price in my country

The XG27UQ is a lot slower and not a good choice among it's competition. The M28U is hands down the best 4K 144Hz monitor for it's price.

vg27aq, though i wouldn't recommend it over the LG and msi verisons

Well there is the PG279QM, but that's in a different price class.

 

But in the end it doesn't really matter. There are plenty of good monitors with similar specs, most notably the MSI MAG274QRF-QD.

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.

In that case the PG279QM would be the next best thing if you're not tight on budget.

There are other monitors that are quite similar, albeit slightly worse.

 

For example the Alienware AW2721D and the Acer Predator XB3. They have very similar response time performance but lack in color accuracity compared to the Asus monitor.

 

A little more on the budget side is the Gigabyte FI27Q-X. This one is slightly slower than all of the above and needs the overdrive setting to be adjusted depending on what fps the game you're playing runs at. So it's not a "set and forget" type monitor like the 3 above.

agree, the PG279QM seems the best option because of color accuracy

the most thing that i care about is colors and picture quality not refresh rate , so i might just go 4k ?

for me 144 refresh rate is enough , saw one monitor from LG its the LG 27GN950-B LED 4K HDR G-Sync Nano IPS 27'' UltraGear

Go for the Gigabyte M28U it's much cheaper and offer most of the LG's features while also having faster response times.

PG279Q Manufacture Date 2017 has served me well. I am looking for an upgrade as well. 
 

I picked up Dell S3422DWG and the picture is an upgrade in regards to colour and brightness but the problem is when playing Path of Exile I notice black smear when I’m in dark areas around my zombies so that’s a deal breaker for me. My wife however loves the monitor. 
 

I am looking at the LG 34GP83A-B but have a couple of concerns, is it going to be a noticeable difference in image quality and is my 1080ti going to be able to handle more pixels. 
 

Choice two is Samsung Odyssey G7 27” which sounds like a nice upgrade, but I’m worried about the black smear in Path of Exile again. 
 

After reading this thread, do I just stick with my trusty old PH279Q?

The LG 34GP83A-B is a very nice monitor, picture quality is basically as good as it gets for a non-HDR monitor. But depending on the game your 1080Ti could struggle a bit. Expect around 60-90 fps in most games and maybe a bit under 60 when playing demanding AAA games on ultra. Of course you can always play at high for more performance.

 

I'd personally stay away from the G7 as it has a bunch of issues regarding quality control. The monitor can be very good - if you're getting a properly working unit and the 1000R curve is okay for you.

Asus ROG Swift PG329Q 32" vs Samsung Odyssey G7 32": What is the difference? (versus.com)

if he want monitor that is bigger than 27" go for Asus PG329Q

the only reason i bought the G7 coz they dont have Asus in my country

and i went back to the PG279Q

Thanks for the info, the PH279QM does look very nice but is not available. I might just wait for prices of 27” 4k 144hz monitors go down and video cards as well.
