£550-600 budget for a monitor

MrZippo · 2 Nov 2020 at 17:33

I currently have a Dell S2716DG.

I am thinking of an upgrade and was wondering what recommendations people have for a new monitor around £550-600.

I am thinking if the budget can get me 4k then great but minimum res would be 1440p.

I would be looking for a 32" ideally but would stay at 27" if the specs are good.

HDR world be a nice bonus.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for those recommendations i could possibly wait until next year and see what comes up.

You are probably right in terms of 1440p as I can't really see myself doing any 4k gaming for now as I am happy with my Titan Xp.

I don't game as much, only a bit of CS:Go now and again. I figured if I was to upgrade would going down to 60hz and maybe a decent IPS at 32" be worth doing?
Maybe worth going for a Dell ultra sharp?

Lots to think about, thanks for the help legend.

Fyi I am considering the LG 27GL850B

What's 1440p scaled down on a 4k panel like??

Hmmm.... Waiting would allow me to save up I guess.

The only issue I have with the current setup is that it's a TN panel. But would the IPS panel be much of an upgrade?

Thanks for all the help, I have decided to hang on until next year to upgrade as I feel that if I was to buy a monitor now it won't be much of an upgrade on what I have now.
