Best Budget Monitor for Graphic Design

[RingMany]

Hi everyone,

I'm building a PC for a friend that uses the following software:

• Maya
• 3DS Max
• Zbrush
• Photoshop
• 4D
• MarvelousDesigner

I was originally looking at 2K monitors, but now I believe a 4K monitor would be most beneficial for her work, my max budget is around £350 / $400 Here's the one that I'm leaning towards the most:
 

BenQ BL2711U 27 inch 4K  

 

I was also recommended this one:

 

ASUS PB287Q, 28'' 4K

 

However, it's several years old, doesn't support IPS and the colour isn't the best I could get for the money. There's also another model for the BenQ I linked previously for graphic design which specialises the colours but it's 2K:

 

BenQ PD2500Q 25 inch 2K Designer Monitor

 

There's a few other 2K monitors that peaked by interest too:
 

Dell U2415 24.0-Inch - $280
ASUS VX24AH 23.8" WQHD $244
BenQ GW2765HT £267
BenQ PD2700Q 27 inch 2K - £334

 

Does anyone have any experience with any 4K monitors that are good for graphic design and the above software they'd recommend?

 

Thanks.

I have the 27 inch one. It is good, but the max brightness isn't that bright. In very extremely lighted room the display seems a bit dim. Other than that it is a great display.

HE should probaly get a 1440p panel with better color accuracy like the MX27AQ
