Hey guys,

I'm in the market for a new monitor and from reading around i'm thinking of going with a monitor as in subject. At the moment I've a Dell U2410 S-IPS and would like an upgrade to it.
From reading up on the subject I'm not too keen on going 120/1440 Hz if I can force around 75-80Hz out of a 2560x1440 monitor.
I've also heard that IPS glow is a varying problem in IPS panels and would like something that minimises this, as I play a fair amount of stealth based games.
The other consideration is how grainy the matte filter makes the panel as on the 2410 it is pretty bad!

So what do ye guys reckon, based on the above or just in general?

Thanks,

Zeal

Consider a PLS panel instead. PLS is Samsung's equivalent to IPS. The anti-glare coating that Samsung uses on their PLS panels is supposed to be more subtle than the one LG uses on their IPS panels. In addition, anti-glare 27" 2560x1440 PLS displays are often very cheap on ebay.

So after some looking around I'm considering either the Dell U2713H or the Viewsonic VP2770. Anyone have any thoughts on how these two weigh up besides?

Thanks!
