I was running with an ACER XB271HU for the last 2 years and it kicked the bucket (thankfully purchased at Costco so I got a full refund). I am on the hunt for a new monitor ASAP....Im using an ASUS monitor I had for work and its just awful in comparison.

I think I have narrowed my decision down to either the Aorus AD27QD or the LG 27GL850 and I just cant make a decision. They both tick the boxes for me; Im looking for 1440p, 144hz, 27", Freesync AND Gsync compatible, IPS. Basically what my Acer had but the ability to also handle Freesync as Im looking at grabbing a 5700 XT for my GPU this time around.

Any thoughts on these two? They are the exact same price right now. Both pretty highly rated. Dont love that the LG is only 1 year warranty...but then the Aorus is Gigabytes first monitor so I dont know about its durability either...

Just thought I'd update this post to say I grabbed the LG and it has been a fantastic choice thus far. Great colors, stupidly fast, and works flawlessly with both freesync and gsync. The reduced lag is noticeable.
