I recently upgraded my setup and i am now looking to buy a third monitor(that will act as the main one). My current main one is an alienware AW2521HFLA, a 1080p 240hz monitor. I'm looking to upgrade to 1440p to improve picture quality while still maintaining 240hz refresh rate. I would just like advice on which one to buy, as i have seen lots of options that look very similar yet range in prices between 250 and 500€.

What is the price of a LG-32GQ850 where you live?  I suspect is a bit over budget.

I have this and its the best monitor I have ever used.  32'' 1440p 240hz Nano-IPS ( Between IPS and OLED in terms of color ).

 

I knowe 32'' might be a bit too large so do you want to look for a 27'' monitor instead?

Yeah i do think 32'' is a bit much; my current monitor is 24'' so i would already be upgrading by going to 27'', and i think that's enough for me. The monitor you mentioned is 600€. I would like to stay within 500€ and on 27''

Yep understandable.  Just checking 🙂  That monitor is only 399 in the US and price varies from EU country to EU country as well.

What about the 27GR83Q?  Should be around €500 or slightly less.

I am just giving you some options to look at. Not expecting you to instantly buy the first thing I mention.

Yeah that's what im looking for options so i appreciate any input. That looks like it's hard to get on italy but if i can find it it's a strong contender.
