Hi all. I'm looking for a good 25-27" monitor for under £400. Google doesn't help much so what's people's opinions.
Doesn't need to be 4k

It's a pretty old rig. GTX1080 GPU but I'm upgrading the system to an intermediate Firefly setup very soon. A bit of future proofing would be good

But gaming mainly with some video editing too

I think IPS is so overrated for picture quality. Most of them struggle to give a 900:1 contrast ratio and even the best ones are around 1200:1..dark scenes get butchered and for dark room viewing, forget it. I best I've seen in a long time is the Agon 273QX, phenomenal picture.

Do you mean this one?

Just as an update on this I went for the AGON in the end. Freakishly stunning. Very happy
