So is this still a TN panel?
I have previous generation of this one, even thou its a TN, unless you sleep below it the view angles and overall quality of image is very good. With only drawback of TN being a bit greyish blacks.
However waiting for 30+ (ideally 32-34) inch 144hz+ IPS 1440p monitor with G-sync.
TN, 1ms GTG

same here, I got a 24" screen (1080p 1ms 144hz) and even though I don't have g-sync I won't buy a monitor for just 3" difference, if they really want people to start changing their favourite res I think they should start building 1440p/4k monitors big enough for that resolution at an "affordable" price. 1440p@ 27" is still to small imo.

I agree, 27 is border line bare bones minimum for me. Ideally 32-34 inch, curved.
Of course there is something such as - Asus PG348Q, however FAR too expensive. I rather get a second GPU for that cash.
