AOC AGON AG271QG vs ViewSonic XG2703-GS

Currently looking for a 1440p IPS 144Hz+ g-sync monitor. Tossing up between these two:

Would anyone recommend one vs the other? I can't find any noticeable differences. What about RMA, what are these brands like? At this stage I probably will end up buying the AOC for aesthetic reasons. 

 

Thanks.

I have the AOC, cant fault it other than a dead pixel just off center of the screen...............

Can you return monitors with dead pixels?

You should be able to return under the circumstance that it's a "MANUFACTURING DEFECT", but the thing is that; is it so detrimental to your user experience is another keypoint.... i know most would return dead pixels since it can get distracting on all viewing angles [light or dark, its there]

That being said I have the PG279Q, uses same panel as the other two in comparison they have almost all same specs [IPS, 165Hz, G-SYNC, 1440P Widescreen]... so I will try and speak. Just pick based on asthetics if i were you.

 

I know for one I have a slight backlight bleed on the right top and right bottom corners but I refused to rma because the overall image quality outpaces the slight defect... IE pros outweighed cons. The BLB is an IPS thing in general, but hardly noticable unless you stare at black screens 99% of the time.
