Immersive Gaming Monitor Question

[gameoverman2016]

Hey all,

So, I have a EVGA GTX 1080ti, which I love, but I am using a triple monitor config, 3x HP ES and I am looking to up my gaming experience.

I have been checking out VA, TN and IPS panels. My budget is $600, prefer under $500

I have narrowed it down to a few that I really like. I would like the opinions from the community who have more experience than I do, as what would be most immersive and enjoyable.

I play alot of MMOs, I do play Scum and PUBG but not competitively. I am looking for a monitor that makes the image on scree "pop", Something immersive. Please help me decide with my links below.
(I value this communities input, as I have picked out hardware before based off the feedback and opinions of the community, which saved be making mistakes in the past. Thanks for reading!

MUST HAVES:
1440P
144Hz
1MS or as close as possible to 1ms response time.
Looks great(graphic wise)
Under $600, prefer $500



My choices as follows.
Optix-MPG27CQ(currently the one I am leaning towards buying)
Pros. has everything I want and costs less
Cons. No G Sync

Cons-its my max limit.

Dell makes decent monitors and they tend to last and have good warranty support. Curved displays are an acquired taste. I would recommend the Dell of the three choices presented.

I ended up going with the Dell, as my local best Buy had it in stock and didnt want to have a monitor shipped for risk of dead pixels.

How do you like the Dell?

How do you like the Dell?

I sadly wont know until December. part of the deal was I pay $300 and my family would pay the rest, as long as I waited until December (xmas) I agreed to it. And to ensure I didn't lose that 14 days if anything goes wrong, Ill be picking it up on December 17th, so the warranty doesn't void. Just found it for $458 on amazon, its $600 in store, so going back on Friday for the price match they offer, Will see if I can hint at her letting me take it then, but I wont push my luck. $300 is less than I was expecting to pay. So Ill gladly wait another 68 days.


I'll let you know in 69 days how it is. But in store it looked nice. For a TN Panel, the colors were very vivid.

Just updating. I got the Dell early, but I didnt like the washed out colors, even after calibrating it, it was a clearly much duller than my older ips monitors and I could not get immersed at all.

Performance was great, if you are a competitive gamer, its amazing, but for movies or immersion, my 23inch hp es 1080p look better. So I am still shopping for a new monitor. Will update on my final choice
