M27Q is better than the 4 your chose, so I don't see why not.

Trust me, you don't want 32" 1440p if you came from 4K monitor. If you came from 1080p monitor on the other hand, 32" 1440p would just feel bigger but not blurrier.

I'm looking for a new monitor....

 

Currently I'm running a 4k@60 with a 2080ti and I am finding that newer games run better at 1440p or 2k but I'm capped at 60fps with no gysnc or free sync. My goal is to get a 2nd monitor and use it as my main gaming monitor but still keep the 4k@60 for media consumption and other 2nd monitor duties. I've narrowed down my selection based on my preferences (price range (after taxes can't go over $400), hz, size range, resolution, etc.)

 

I'm open to other monitors, these are just the ones I've found in my own research.

If you can't even decide whether you want 27" or 32", how are we suppose to help you?

If you sit right in front of your desk everytime you use your monitor, 32" is unnecessary, and it is blurrier than 27", especially coming from a 4K monitor.

And, why not consider Gigabyte M27Q?
