Basically my wonderful dead pixel free PG279Q has received pressure mark damage thanks to my brother's kids and thus I am going to have to replace the monitor since its quite extensive (thankfully can hide some of it using dark mode for now). I need suggestions for a new monitor, I don't pretty much have a budget, I am happy to pay whatever so long as its a quality monitor.

I would like the following:

  • G-Sync or G-Sync Compatible
  • IPS ( Since Going with IPS monitors I cannot go back to TN's color quality )
  • 2560 by 1440 Resolution ( Im running a 1080 right now so not worth going 4K yet )
  • Ideally 27 Inch

Any suggestions are welcome!!
 
I don't sadly, but its basically pressure mark damage, aka when the panel is physically damaged. It shows up as a much darker area on a white service, like someone dropped a big blot of ink on your monitor. I am negating some of it right now using a dark mode theme over the OS but obviously this is just a temporary measure until I can get a replacement and its only helping so much. As for my brothers kids, I have told him they are banned from my house now until such an age that they wont be sticking their fingers all over my nice expensive technology. Was so gutted too cause my PG279Q when I originally had it I considered to be a miracle because it had very little BLB and NO dead pixels (and has never produced any)
