Help me find a 27" monitor

[EpicSNES]

Hello. I've been looking into getting two 27" monitors. I'm selling my main monitor today so I'm forcing myself to upgrade.

Can anyone recommend a model? I've spent a couple hours reading conflicting reviews on NewEgg and Amazon. My price range is about $300 for one and I want it to have good picture quality. I currently own a 144hz monitor and honestly, the color and picture quality is garbage, I regret buying it. I do play games, but I don't need a monitor to be tailored towards gaming.

Edit: I'd like to stay between $200 - $300 range.

Out of curiosity which monitor do you have now?

Yes there are lots of choices. For your budget I would get one of the Korean 1440p models. That Qnix is fine. Check also Crossover, Catleap, Achieva, Wasabi Mango, and etc. Prices vary on them quite a bit though most of them have the same 2 or 3 different panel. Some have much nicer stands or better connection options than others. Some can do 120Hz+ but make sure to get one that has displayport 1.2a in that case so there is a better chance of it being able to do adaptive sync once the GPU drivers start supporting it.

In case you're willing to stretch your budget a bit more
27 inch OC to 120hz IPS panel. Also comes with a 1 year warranty. I have one and it's great

I'm using a LG 27EA63 right now and I like it well enough. It seems to be kind of hard to find new, but I haven't really done any hunting for it since I bought it. It's a 60hz LED IPS monitor. My only complaint is that its stand seems kind of flimsy, but it has VESA mounts, so it won't be hard to replace it if you're so inclined.

Thanks guys. I ended up getting an Asus VN279QL. While it's 27" and 1920x1080 I actually like it a lot. It seems to have okay colors, way better than my previous monitor.
