Hey Guys,
I have been looking at Monitors recently as I am finding we are moving past 1080p and into a world where 4K is a more commercial option.
I plan on using this monitor with a lot of gaming (my build has the GTX 780 if that puts a limit on my FPS with a higher resolution monitor), and I also plan on using it for photo editing so I would like some relatively crisp colouring.
I don't know what the whole deal with response time is, I know that gaming monitors are under 5ms and usually 2ms. So I don't know if 12ms is going to be too blurry for gaming (usually first person shooters so very fast movements). I do some photo editing, and so I would not particularly want a monitor with rubbish colour display, but I don't quite know what standards there are for good colouring. Most monitors that are designed for gaming should probably be half decent for colour, and half decent is what I can live with for that. I plan on achieving a minimum of 60FPS for gaming, and I would aim for 100FPS+ in a monitor. But you tell me what really matters.
Basically I am asking for what you all think on monitors, I forgot to mention I have a budget of under of about $500, but I am aware that Amazon and other companies have large bargains (like 50% off), so give me your best, with a good price to quality ratio, monitors.
OH and also! Should I go for a 4K monitor for gaming, or is 1080p fine at 27"? I would like to go above 1080p, and I would like a good response time. Resolution is my priority number 1, as I want a high resolution, response time I would like to reduce as much blur as possible, and colouring I would prefer a nice colouring and nothing blotchy, something that's simply nice. But thanks if you can help me out
