£400-£500 Gaming Monitor

Hi guys,

I recently upgraded my system and need to look into a new Monitor.

I play a lot of games on my PC and also watch a lot of movies/Tv Progs on it.

I have a AMD 480 GTR XXX 8gig GFX card so was looking a Free-Sync as an obvious option, However looking into it has become a minefield.

I would love a 27" monitor to run at 1440p rather than 1080p and keep good FPS for gaming etc. I would say im more wanting the monitor to be awesome with gaming and watching movies etc as a secondary.

If you could help with some advice and some monitors you would recommend that would be awesome.

PS. It doesn't have to be free-sync but thought with me having an AMD card it would get the best out of it.

Cheers for reading and hopefully you guys can help me narrow things down.

May Have to wait for stock if buying from Ocuk. I woudnt get ips 1440p as quality control is an issue and most use the same panel source. I think this monitor Has the best bang for buck in your price range. Think you'd need to turn a few things down to stay above 60 fps. And if you go for Vega it will give you even more down the line.

If you realy want ips though https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus...escreen-led-slim-bezel-monitor-mo-083-as.html
