Good Evening All,

Currently gaming on a 43" Samsung 4k tv.... which is far too big for the desk and want to get a proper monitor for gaming and to plug my works laptop in (Just basic email and document stuff).

Currently stuck between getting either a 27”- Or 32”-inch panel (I feel you get more value for money with 27", though could be wrong).

Currently running a I9-9900k, 16gbs of ram and an RTX 20800, so aiming for around the 1440p mark. Budget is about £600.

Did look at the LG 27"GL850 (Sadly missed the deal) but not sure if 27 inch is to small and a 32" would give me that bit more screen real estate, or if there are better options out there.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

But there is a problem there is no 144hz+ IPS panels in 32" size so that makes 27" the only option. VA and TN are not exactly ideal.

Agreed and with the 27" you also get free sync G sync compatibility which is also a helpful feature in my opinion.

How far do you sit from the screen?
32 can be pretty jarring and hard to get used to.

There is the 32 LG 650 VA panel for 300 which is pretty solid

I am going to desk mount it and have it pushed back so about 50 to 60 cms away (going by desk depth). Will have a look at the 32 LG 650 today.

@garnett - Thank you for the recommendation, I have a look at the Dell.

Thanks everyone.

Just to add... 50-60 CMS is a bit closer than I sit to mine, so ignore what I said about wanting a slightly bigger screen. I'd say 32" is plenty.

I think at that distance you should definitely go curved screen.

The Dell isn't certified as G-sync but it has worked in G-sync for every game I've tried it in.

I checked my sitting postions again and I am a bit further away than what I imagined (just guessed by desk size which wasnt the best idea, hence being off a bit).

Thanks for the suggestion, just watching youtube videos on the Dell, also the LG 27 GL850 and LG 32 GK 650, will pull the trigger and buy one tomorrow for a monday delivery.
