I'm looking for a new gaming monitor, but I'm not sure what to get. I need the following:
Now the monitor will dictate the rest of the build, especially the video card. At the moment there are very few 4K monitors with the above mentioned features, but there are a few 1440p monitors with those features. I'm willing to wait a few months if need be as I'm not desperate to make a purchase immediately. Since I'm planning on keeping the monitor for a few years, should I go Freesync or GSync? Obviously I'll be tied into either nVidia or AMD depending on what monitor I choose so I'm after a reliable, long term solution. I know that nVidia traditionally are better when it comes to releasing high end video cards, so is that a safer bet despite the Gsync price premium?
- 27" - 32" size
- 100Hz+ refresh rate
- GSync or Freesync
