new main monitor, cant decide

[kaiohs]

hello,

im looking for new monitor , i dont have friends or a store that displays good gaming monitors,
and on internet i can not experience colour and how big it is to sit in front of.

any justjestons ?

my screen, VG248QE
gtx 980ti

these i have in mind, or should i just wait 1 more year ?
because these are pretty old now and prices don't really drop

Dell S2716DG 27 €639
Asus PG278QR 27 €669
PG279Q 27 €799
ASUS ROG Strix XG32VQ Curved €629

the last one maybe too much stretched pixels ? i sit like 50 cm(1ft 7in) away from screen.

for that viewing distance, you need at most 27" 1440p monitor.
the PG279Q will have the best color reproduction.
If it's not important, i'd go for the Dell one.
though for the price of PG279Q, you can get a 34" ultrawide 3440x1440.

what is that ultra wide your speaking of ,
i like to watch movies and gaming casionly competitive but not my main game.
because i play at 144hz for 5 years now i think i will regret at 60hz

the monitors are just wider. like the cinematic format. you probably have noticed that some movies have black bars on top and bottom. they are 21:9 (you monitor is 16:9)
this would be an example https://www.amazon.de/AOC-AG352UCG-Monitor-Reaktionszeit-DisplayPort/dp/B06WD76LHL/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1523874263&sr=8-2&keywords=3440x1440&dpID=51uH3WVhzyL&preST=_SX300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch

and yes don't go below 100Hz
