Hello

 

I was thinking of getting this,pairing with GTX1070.I was reading some reviews about that monitor,saying its tn panel,so its bad.So how bad it really is?

Other option is the AOC AG271QX AGON.I dont have any experience with AOC.Any other monitor suggestion?

Budget under 600€

Keep reading on it. Cheap TN panels are bad. Good TN panels are about as good as panels get. Way better than a poor IPS.

Good TN panels are still bad. great modern IPS panels can get input lag sub-4ms, which is as good as even good TN panels (not response time, which is a different thing and the statistics on it are pretty much made up. Although IPS panels are 1-3 ms slower on the best to best comparison.)

You can't tell the difference between a good TN and an IPS after color calibration. Biggest difference is viewing angels. 

Can't tell the difference, proceeds to mention viewing angles... sigh...

 

27" TN panels are large enough to show significant color shift just stationary center of panel. I've tried.
