2k Monitor suggestions

mman360

I'm looking for 3 2k monitors with slim bezels to create a nice surround gaming experience. I would prefer to keep them between $300-400 a piece. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.

I would go with the pb278q, it is slightly over budget, but it is ips, and I wouldn't recommend getting a tn panel over $130 (besides possibly the rog swift). fyi you should follow this topic.

Honestly, i'm not sure, correct me if i'm wrong but if ips has better viewing angles, i think it would make more sense for surround gaming. 

 

Yes i'm newer to this.

The Asus PB278Q is 2560x1440 and is not IPS.

Check there all the IPS monitors by Asus, choose the size and resolution.
