I will be using this PC for photo editing and also gaming. I have read more reviews today than I care to count and finally I am no closer to a solution, so I turn to advice.
The build is typical 8gb RAM, Asus Strix GTX970, and 4790k.
Up until today I was sold on the Asus VG248QE because of the reviews about the refresh rate. However after searching more into it I was horrified to read bad reviews on "washed out colors". Now I know not everything you read on the internet is true and all that but I'm also a believer in if you see enough smoke there is a fire.
The gaming I'm mostly into is Total War, Elder Scrolls, some FPS, SimCity, etc...
I don't care too much about online FPS where refresh rate is a must and even if I die a few times because of it I will not die in real life. I have been playing COD and BF4 on X360 multiplayer so I'm used to crap.
What I'm wanting is a great monitor that has a beautiful picture but will also play games very well. I read about custom settings in the VG248QE and if you go into INVIDIA console and all this the monitor ALMOST looks good. But honestly I'm wondering if there is a better option for my needs...
