Dell S2721DGF or S2722DGM

[CrazieRR]

I've been looking into 1440p monitors for quite some time now and I've narrowed it down to a few options. I would go with that MSI monitor people keep recommending, however in AUS at least, the price is $799 aud, which is out of my budget. The Gigabyte models also look alright, but i'm indifferent on that subpixel layout. As such, I've started looking into The two Dell models, the IPS S2721DGF and the VA S2722DGM. The IPS is $560 on Amazon and the VA is currently $399 on Dell's website. While that sounds like a steal, I wanted to ask if either of these two monitors are better or if i'm fine going with either. I'd be using it for gaming and a bit of work, but nothing too serious in the latter regard. Any advice on these two would be heavily appreciated.

I have the S2721DGFA and it seems fine for my uses, 1440p and Nvidia G-Sync compatible, good for work and great for games...

They are a good deal different.

Which is best for you will be entirely down to what your use case find more important.

Nowadays Dell S2721DGF is only good deal when they're 20% off on eBay which they have it from time to time. So for $560 that's a no deal.
Also LG monitors have been dropping in price recently, you should consider them instead.
