Hi there,

So I finally think it's time to invest in a new proper screen. I want to be able to use it for both work and to run my PS5. I suppose once (in about 50 years) when the new GFXs comes into stock I might build myself a new PC as well and get a second screen as well.

The crux are that I work as a UX-designer and thus would need something that are good with colours and shades, so also trying to excuse this as a bit of an investment haha.

As I mentioned I also plan on doing some gaming on it so would be nice to have something that have that sweet refresh rate.

Planning on getting something like a 32" and I've also never used a curved screen, not sure if its worth it or if its just a gimmick. Budget I'm looking at are £300-£500.

I saw this one on the website

and wonder if anyone got experience with it?

For the upper end of the budget I've also seen this

But I'm not sure how I feel about that apparent light below the stand.

So thoughts/ideas recommendations are welcome.

I dunno, feels like half the world says 27" being sweet spot and the other half says 32" so not sure haha!

A 32" monitor at 2560x1440 is the same pixel size as a 24" 1920x1080 monitor, so you probably know exactly what it looks like.

Especially for gaming I think I would prefer the 32". If you are staring at a lot of text all day then you may appreciate the extra crispness of the 27" monitor. The fact that both the monitors you have mentioned are gaming monitors, then I think the choice is clear!!
 
I keep uhming and ahing about this. I wonder if I should go for a 27" 2560x1440 screen. Kinda want that colour accuracy and it seem like that instantly locks me in on 60Hz which is kinda shame if I want to use it for gaming as well. Which might not be an issue for PS5 but if I eventually can get a RTX 3080 and get a PC it wouldnt be optimal.

Kinda starting to look at the asus TUF screen as well, but saw some reviews where people said some of the colours in there are terrible. Still taking advice!
