Spec Request - High Refresh 1440p

[Dirk Diggler]

I'm looking for something high refresh for FPS gaming. Needs to have VRR support, preferably Gsync & Freesync both.

ASUS ROG Swift PG279QE looking ok as it's IPS 165Hz and on budget at around £575 - 675.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x ASUS ROG Swift PG279QE 27" 2560x1440 IPS 165Hz G-Sync Widescreen LED Gaming Monitor= £629.99

Total: £641.09 (includes shipping: £11.10)
​

Have you bought anything lately that's impressed you?
Got your eye on something yet to release?

Having done various research, I'm really undecided whether I will go AMD or NV for my next card. With that in mind, I don't want to tie myself to Gsync again, so looking at the ASUS ROG Strix XG279Q - is the Gsync experience identical to the PG279QE?

I'm not sure what the difference is between Gsync & Gsync compatible?

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x ASUS ROG STRIX XG279Q 27" 2560x1440 IPS 170Hz 1ms FreeSync/G-Sync ELMB HDR400 Widescreen Gaming Moni= £599.95

Total: £611.05 (includes shipping: £11.10)

Dell S2721DGF may be worth a look, ticks most of your boxes I think and can be got for a reasonable price (link https://www.overclockers.co.uk/forums/threads/new-dell-ips-s2721dgf-165hz-gaming-monitor.18892819/)

Thanks for that, a serious contender at that price - I'll post a couple of queries in the dedicated thread.
