Looking for a IPS Monitor preferably

[Kevin Matthews]

Hi guys,

Looking to upgrade my Optix MAG271CQR
monitor from 27in 1440p, currently have an msi curved but I hear IPS panel would be the preferred choice, GPU was an Nitro Se 5700XT.

Was looking at the IIYAMA G-MASTER GB3461WQSU-B1 IPS

Any advice be greatly appreciated

Thanks
Kevin

Well UW and IPS is certainly a worthy upgrade. The GB3461WQSU-B1 certainly is a good monitor, I just question whether you would miss that curve?

Well the curve is great and all, but not with such bad blacks on it. Then you try to change its just bad monitor to try and calibrate.

I'm only gaming about year now, would you suggest stay with curve and go VA?
