Freesync TN or IPS monitor?

[Smilie]

Hi

I'm looking to get a 27inch 1440p monitor and would like some advice

I have a i5 3570K, 290X, 16GB ram so should be alright running 1440p

I mainly be using it for gaming and movies/TV and everyday use

at the moment I'm looking at the BenQ GW2765HT (£280) and the Acer XG270HU (£380)

I like a IPS panel brother has a ASUS Asus VX279H and it looks great but I also like the idea of getting freesync

I play League Of legend mostly (know freesync wont be useful) but do play lots of other games like Witcher 3, Shadows of Mordor, borderlands pre-sequel, but more like testing them as I always go back to LOL and give them up I buy new games a lot when i see offer

so think its worth the extra £100 for the freesync but losing IPS? or would I be better off getting the BenQ?

or some other monitor? think the max i willing to pay is £400 so the ASUS IPS freesync monitor is out of range

any advice?

I recommend that you get the BenQ IPS monitor. Personally, IPS has more of a priority compared to FreeSync when I shop for a monitor.

In general IPS is considered better then TN and is more about image quality.

Freesync is all about fixing tearing, stuttering and input lag.

Acer XG270HU 27" FreeSync IPS Display, WQHD 2560 x 1440 144Hz be the best going around along with Acer's other Gsync variant the Predator.

What would be the best 24 inch ips monitor to get for around 200 bucks? This one any good?

Yes. That monitor is the one I personally recommend for people looking for a good budget oriented IPS display.

Thanks PCMR seems like a good monitor judgiing from overall consensus. The other IPS monitor I was looking at in that price range was this acer one. You think IPS would be the best bet for someone who primarily plays rts games and watches movies?
