PG278QR vs PG279Q

COTG

Does anybody have experience with either of those two monitors, or preferably both, and could elaborate on their weaknesses and strengths? such as how fast the actual response time of the 279q is in comparison to the 278qr as it is said to be slower duo to the ips panel. Also if you have blb and ips glow on your 279q if it is distracting when ingame or if it is minor and you can almost not notice it.

The PG279Q is IPS so it has better color. If you can spare the money then get that
