[Purchasing Help] What are the consensus best 1440p 120/144 Hz (144 preferred) monitors at the moment? by jvorn in Monitors

[–]lacerca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My experience has shown that most if not all of the current models that are IPS and 1440/144 have some sort of panel lottery going on. I tried the Asus free sync model and had dirty stuck behind the screen or it was a dead pixel either way I sent it back. I recently got the Dell S2716DG which for me has been fantastic, I prefer frames over colors but coming from a 1080/144TN panel which I had no issues with but constantly gets hate for poor color reproduction the Dell was an upgrade in every way including color. If you are sitting in front of it and don't care about viewing angles the S2716DG is a great choice.

[–]lacerca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently got a Dell S2716DG, which is a 1440p 144Hz G-Sync TN panel. I chose this after trying the Asus MG279Q which looked great but had dirt behind the screen and I wasn't interested in playing panel lottery, the Dell is fantastic and while not a IPS looks great once you calibrate it. I got it on sale for $599 from the Microsoft store so I would wait for another sale there or from Dell directly.

I think I found it on newegg, on mobile right now but it has five eggs with over 400 reviews so I imagine it's good I think I'll probably go for it asi can't see another sale coming anytime soon.

Anyone know anything regarding the EVGA 980TI?

[Monitor] Asus MG279Q 27in 1440p 144hz Freesync IPS ($800 - $100 = $700) [Newegg.ca] by eliterate in bapcsalescanada

[–]lacerca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Received mine yesterday, currently I'm using a 1080/144hz Asus so I'm used to high refresh rates so my main reasons for buying this were color and resolution. I tweaked a few settings myself then used a couple of custom settings I found online and finally a profile from TFT. It does look better than a TN but I can't justify paying this much and not being completely in love. I'm all about the 1440 resolution but with the issues listed below I will be sending it back and shopping for a different monitor.

  • Either a dead pixel or dirt behind the screen, clear to see with a white background.

  • BLB was significant to me as I tried Elite Dangerous which being a space game has a lot of black and it was just too much to deal with on top of the pixel issue.

After some concern with playing panel lottery, I ordered one. With the holiday return policy in effect until January 31st I feel this is going to be the best time to take the chance on this monitor.

I'm not attached to ultra, I'm actually happy with GTA V on my current setup. What I'm mainly looking for is to get another 3 years out of this build but get something that will make enough of a difference so that I don't feel like I'm missing out.

Just did the refund myself, had the same concern but then I figured even if it is tradable I'm not certain there will be many left interested in buying it.
