Best cheap ips monitor under £200

[Camy252]

Looking to temporarily replace my rog swift pg278q with a cheap 1080p monitor until i can upgrade my rig to handle 1440 graphics. Currently any game i play at 1080p on the pg278q looks fuzzy and blurry and I've finally had enough!

Criteria:
1080p
Under £200
IPS
75hz or above.
Screen size: preferably 24inches but as long as quality isnt reduced by having a 1080p on a 27inch then that would be even better.
Has a dvi port
Ideally has g-sync*

* i run most games well above 60fps on 1080p and dont wont tearing. Plus im used to 144hz from the swift so im slightly spoilt! Dont need as high as 144 tbh so im sure 75-100 will be fine.

Thanks!

25" may be a bit too short for a 21:9 Ultrawide but that monitor does meet all your criteria (besides Gsync) so it's probably a good choice.

I did like this one. And i agree it ticks all the boxes (im now starting to see gsync is out of this price budget)
But im worried about the ultrawideness. Wont this resolution be more demanding than standard 1080p. Will this scale okay back to normal 1080p?

Well ultrawide (2560x1080P) isn't scaled back, it's literally just a wider view so no stretching or weird distortions. Even the games that don't support 21:9 will just run the game in 16:9 with black bars on the side. The only odd part is the height of the monitor, I have a 29" 2560x1080P (21:9) and the vertical height is just shorter then the vertical height of a 24" 1080P monitor so for gaming and such I really wouldn't want it to be less then that but that's more personal preference as I've heard ppl with 25" versions enjoy it just as much.
