Which screens have a type of anti-glare ideal for gaming?

Budget up to £700

I have 970's in Sli

Size = 28+ bigger the better really.

My worry is I hate screens that have a mirror type effect as it really effects my eyes.

Anything come to mind?

The only glossy screens I can think of are the Apple ones and the odd Hazro. Just about everything else is matte.

Possibly this. The spec's are suspect and you need to know what you're getting into with Gsync, but it could be a very good monitor.

This is what I'm waiting to see.

Is Rog worth buying or is it worth waiting?

I like playing games like Rome total war 2.. Am guessing a 21.9 screen would look better for showing the battlefield?

Apparently the ROG's screen is rather grainy according to badass and PCM 2 although it is the best monitor overall for purely gaming, great motion clarity, gsync for smoothing out gameplay + no screen tearing, 144HZ

The best anti glare finish that I have seen is on the ultrawide LG screens so you might want to check out the 34" 1440 screen, got more than enough GPU power for that res. + the 21.9 is much more immersive for gaming than 16.9 aspect ratio imo.

Not worth buying any monitor just now, loads of stuff coming out next year.

If those are your sort of games then I would definitely look at the 21.9 screens, google search them to make sure that 21.9 is supported though.
