I'm actually interested in either the Dell P2714H or SAMSUNG SD390/SD590 both 27''. I find the AG on the P2414H kinda heavy though they advertise it as light, I saw it first hand, plus it's to small. I want to get 27'' instead.

The P2714H has good reviews very low lag and good for gaming for a IPS monitor. I can't find reviews for SAMSUNG SD390/SD590.

I'm interested in Samsung the SD390/SD590 the only diff between is the 590 has more inputs. But would this PLS be good for gaming ? Even though they say 5ms GTG I want to know from someone if they are good.

Does Samsung use a lighter AG or pretty much the same as the Dell one ?

Which would you guys get if you were me and why ?
 
TFTCentral found the input lag for the 590 to be pretty high...

On the other side, the P2714H was found to have a very low lag on TFTCentral.
 
What about the SD390 will it be like the SD590 ? Another determining factor is the AG I found the AG on the Dell was kinda heavy I wonder if the Samsung is the same. I assume that the Dell is probably highly favored correct ?

I believe so, they seem to use the same type of panel.

The Samsung is glossy, I believe.

I would prefer the Dell, yes. My U2414H's have been flawless for gaming.
 
ATMINSIDE you've been a great help. I returned the P2414H yesterday and want to get either the P2714H or the SD390/SD590. By the way the link you provided saying that the 590 was lagging thats 4k 590. I don't think there are any SD590 reviews for the PLS version that I'm interested in.

There actually is a review for the SD390 it's rated pretty good with low lag. I assume the 590 would be in the same ballpark.

The thing that scares me about the 590 is the stand it's really ugly and why didn't they not include the option to add a visa mount mount stand.

I really like the P2714H but I find that the AG is kinda heavy. I've gaming on a HDTV that has semi gloss and I really believe that with the heavier AG it actually reduces the quality of the colors a bit. Your U2414H is really nice to bad they don't have it in 27'' correct me if I'm wrong isn't the AG really light on that monitor ?
 
Ah, sorry, didn't realize it was a different 590...

That 5.4ms is pretty solid.

Yeah, the AG is really light on my monitors.
Have you looked at the UZ2715H?
