Hey everyone!

I'm trying to find a monitor that has 4k graphics with an IPS panel and I'm considering either the Asus ROG SWIFT PG27AQ or the ASUS ProArt PA328Q and I want to know what everyone else thinks would be the better 4k Asus monitor! Or if there is a better 4k monitor then either of these two. I like the g-sync of the PG27AQ, which the PA328Q doesn't have, but the PA328Q is said to have superior color accuracy then the PG27AQ. I don't mind if it's a 27 inch or a 32 inch. But I've also heard that the PG27AQ had black light bleed issues in the past.

Until now I've been using a TN panel 1080p display, so regardless an IPS panel 4k monitor monitor will probably be superior to what I currently have. But considering both the PG27AQ or the PA328Q are around a grand in price, I thought it was best to get input on how good the color accuracy is on the PG27AQ when compared to the PA328Q, or again if there is a monitor that is better then either at the same price.

I'll be using this monitor for 4k video and image editing, as well as compositing and single player RPG gaming. Also I'm fine with the 60hz aspect of the monitor, but again I do want it to have g-sync and the IPS panel as well as 4k quatlity is essential. Lastly, I'll be using this with the EVGA nVidia 1080TI FTW3 graphics card when its released.

IPS monitors generally have worse color reproduction than TN, but better viewing angle.
as for 4k, you are stuck with 60hz no more.
I'm not sure about gsync with those asus monitors, I bought an asus monitor and it said freesync. make sure you do research on whether gsync is available.

Darthutos, I appreciate the fact that you took the time to respond, but if you had taken the time to digest what I said in my original post, you would have understand that everything you've mentioned in your post, I already answered in my original post. No offense intended.
