I'm looking for a 27" monitor, QHD (2k resolution), VESA mount and probably budget around RM2K.

Got 3 model in the heart but hope to get more recommendation.

Dell S2716DG for this model, I'm a bit dilemma cause it kinda old model
Asus VG27AQ / VG27BQ this 2 seems not bad and cheaper

I read around it said that Nvidia 9xx series does not support adaptive g sync from free sync monitor and my current GPU is 980ti.

The Asus VG27AQ is GSync Compatible ... so should work well with your 980Ti

Here is a list of all GSync monitors. https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/produc...monitors/specs/

G-Sync compatibility only works on 1000 series GPUs (GTX 1000 series) and above. TS has a 980 Ti, which means he will need a G-Sync monitor (which comes in a hefty price premium) icon_idea.gif

Haha yea the hefty price, but how important is G sync enable vs non? Should I get a G sync monitor or any monitor and wait for future upgrade new GPU?

Personally I'd just wait for the new GPUs - most monitor these days are released with G-Sync compatibility rather than G-Sync native (unless you are talking about those very high end gaming monitors that is) icon_idea.gif

Probably true, no point waste money on G-sync monitor and I can't afford high end gaming monitor too haha

How about IPS vs TN vs VA for gaming?

These 2 model Asus VG27AQ / VG27BQ is cheaper compare to the LG 27GL850.

TN - worst image quality (in terms of viewing angles, contrast and color accuracy), but often comes with very high refresh rates, best motion clarity and response times, cheap to produce (best for those who play games competitively) icon_idea.gif

VA - high static contrast ratio and very good image depth (which means deep blacks and punchy colors), better than TN but worse than IPS in terms of viewing angles, capable of high refresh rates, but has the slowest response times and motion clarity. VA panels also can be made to be very large at a reasonable cost too (best for single player/non-competitive gaming, along with general media consumption) icon_idea.gif

IPS - best viewing angles, high color accuracy (depending how the panel is calibrated), better than VA in terms of motion clarity and response times, worse than VA in terms of contrast and image depth. They are expensive to produce and often can suffer from IPS glow unless a True Wide polarizer is used (only found in professional monitors) (best for those who wants an all rounder monitor) icon_idea.gif
