I need help finding a high end 1440p monitor.

[RJK1107]

I can't spend any more than $650. I was thinking about getting the ASUS ROG Swift PG278Q but I don't know if it'll be worth it with the backlight bleeding issues that monitor has. I seen quite a few people on youtube saying they got unbearable backlight bleed from it. What monitor would you recommend?

I am in the same boat as you my friend, I want to get a 1440p 144hz 1ms 27in IPS monitor and was going to go with the PG278Q but read up about the bleed issues and that it is a bit of a gamble on if you get a good one or not. Any help from the community would be greatly appreciated

Acer XG270HU is a great screen.

James, 1ms IPS screens aren't available. Most the IPS "gaming" monitors will have 4ms response times. The Acer PG278Q is a good monitor and there isn't as many backlight bleed problems with it due to the panel being a TN panel. Most TN panels will be fine, IPS panels are the ones that really suffer with IPS glow and backlight bleed
