Which 1440p monitor to choose?

[Endre]

Hey!

Just recently ordered a GTX 1070, so now I'm getting a 27" 1440p monitor as well, upgrading from a cheap 24" 1080p one.

 

As I have a budget, I've come up with these 5 monitors, but I can't decide which one to get.

1. Crossover 27Q (265£)
2. Acer G277HU (240£)

3. Acer K272HUL (220£)
4. AOC Q2778VQE (209£)
5. Dell U2711 [USED FOR 2 YEARS] (180£)

What matters the most to me is the quality of the screen itself (no ghosting for example) and good colors. It must also have a decent total lag, as I want to be able to play games without the monitor limiting me

Thanks for any replies!

what has that got to do with what the OP is asking? lol

 

As far as a screen @Endre I'd go with the Acer G277HU out of those you have listed.

I like that monitor too from what I've seen, but I can't seem to find any proper reviews of it. I'd like to find a proper test of it, because I've only found a Dutch review which I can't understand  Do you know any review of it?

I bought the MSI ARMOC OC from Maplin Do you have any feedback on the monitors? I would appreciate if you can help me out!

Video Review: Same monitor but 25 inch version. It actually looks a bit better and its cheaper.

Thank you very much!  Looks like if I end up with this one, I'll have to do some calibrating then, but that's fine.

I could have helped if I could. I don't even know about my computer well.

My thought: Expensive=Better

Anyone who knows more about the Crossover 27Q, the Acer K272HUL or the AOC monitor? Would love some opinions on them as well
