Best IPS 27"+ for £400

Shampoo · 14 Oct 2016 at 23:19

As title suggests, what is the best I can get for my money. I do a bit of gaming and photo work so looking for something in the middle in regards to that aspect.

Hope you can help. Cheers.

970 at the moment, but looking to upgrade to the 1070 or possibly 1080Ti if it shows up in the next six months.

Was looking at the Dell Ultrasharp 27" tho it seems to be forever out of stock. That BenQ looks nice.

Any other opinions/recs? Forum seems quite empty at the monitor section.

Lacking any more input I think the DELL is a safe bet here.

Pulled the trigger on the UltraSharp U2715H. Forever out of stock here, but was able to grab from the rainforest for £390.

Well I paid £384.92 to be exact. I'll live. I hope it lives up expectations and doesn't give me any dead pixel nonsense. You decided yet?

Yeah arrived today. Stunning picture and colours out the box. Really reminded me of a CRT.

Don't lose much viewing from the sides and for non competitive gaming like Resi 4/Dark Souls 3 etc it's great. :cool:

No complaints whatsoever with it. Came out the box well calibrated and all I really had to do was turn the brightness down from 50 to 35. Stunning panel. Handles motion well and all content from SD to HD looked great.

Well this monitor is being used with the living room PC in the corner and generally for media and browsing and I plan on a second for the study, so if you can link me to a 27" IPS with as good a picture with G-Sync then that'll do for gaming.

Cheers.

I take the silence as meaning it doesn't exist anywhere near the budget then?
