Hi. I have a Dell 1050p monitor for about 9 years and i already have to retire it. It has black spots, backlight bleeding everywhere and i have some dead pixels.
My idea is to update my PC (i5 2500k, 16GB DDR3, GTX970 ...) from here to a couple of years, I'm no hurry about it. But monitor is already an emergency and i want to start there. I have between 500 and 600 $ to invest on it.
2K or 4K? Will a 2K fall short for a future graphic card update? Monitor is for a general use. I don't need a gaming one, because i play very little and huge Hz doesn't matter to me. I want it to be general purpose, with special emphasis on colors, because i edit photos and use a lot of photoshop. I always prioritize panel quality (i think IPS still the best , right?) to anything else.
In short, i'm looking for an all-purpose monitor to play games (in a casual way, without HDR or 120Hz), which displays a really good colors (for viewing and editing photos and videos) and a 27'' maximum (i visualize it about 90 cm distance approx.). 16: 9, nothing extra-panoramic, curved or things like that. To use a lot of web browser.
I trust Dell a lot, but i'm open to any brand, if it's worth it. I want something really good that lasts me another 9 years. Something that reaches that top of 600$ and give the greatest possible benefits for image, video and game.
