Hello. I want to buy a new 27" inch monitor for 1440p gaming and I have to make a choice between these two:

QD-Mini LED Fast-HVA TCL 27G64

and

ASUS ROG Strix XG27ACS

I ll use them mostly in games and I want to have the best picture I can get from black colours, bright colors. I want a good response them which I saw both have("1ms"), they re both 180hz, and G sync compatible

I saw the Asus has DCI-P3 97 %, sRGB 133 % colors, can reproduce 16.7M colors, Brightness 350-400, contrast 1000:1.. its non-glare and it's HDR10.

And the TCL can reproduce 1.07B colors, has Brightness 600, contrast 5000:1, and 99% sRGB @CIE 1931coverage 97% DCI-P3 @CIE 1976coverage, Delta E: <2 and HDR600

Would the srgb % difference make the Asus better or would the TCL 1.07B colors producing, the brithness and etc would make the TCL better?

I have a Nvidia graphic card and both are G sync compatible. Please let me know ur opinion on both of them and which one would you choose. The difference of money is like 20€ between them because the TCL is on sale. Ty in advance

I want to mention primarly the only competitive game I m gonna play Is League of Legends, besides that I don't play many competitive games.

Ignore the manufacturers specifications. They can pick and choose what they want you to know and numbers don't always relate to what you see.

Instead look for trusted reviews of each and compare that way.

I cannot find any reviews of the TCL, so I would probably avoid it, unless you want to buy it with a return policy if it's not up to your standards.

Lol isn’t exactly a twitch shooter. Depends what’s more important to you. Normally IPS panels are better for colour but VA panels are better for contrast.
 
VA panels also tend to have smearing when at high refresh rates. The pixels can't actually respond as fast as the monitor is accepting new frames leading to both the new and a ghost image of the old frame being displayed at the same time.
Fast VA should be better about this but I wouldn't pick it over IPS for gaming.
