Nah, just doesn't change the base content especially on DX11 or older games (like WoW) and tbh a lot of work has been done over the years with efficient shaders/shadows/etc. It's clearly nicer but I'm still running 60 hz 1080p so it's not like the difference is going to be like going into a store with all that carefully groomed stock 4k footage on the OLED TVs which is just insane detail.What games have you tried?
Not seeing drastical changes when going from low/med to ultra in games... You blind?
^ I have one as well. Great monitor and despite being a TN panel it's still good picture quality. Can move up and down quite a bit as well as rotate 90 degrees (maybe more, haven't tried) and tilt to fit your viewing angle.Asus PG279Q is their 1440p/144hz/gsync/ips offering. I currently have one and it's the best monitor I've ever used. Also have their freesync version which is identical aside from the gsync and it's 200$ less if AMD is your thing, it otherwise looks exactly like the PG279Q with a bit more bezel on it being the only difference.
No, IPS is still too 'new' for high level displays and heavily R&D so this stuff is really pricy still for any of the nice units.I gather that there's no such thing as an inexpensive IPS with refresh times suitable for gaming?
If you can get the Dell S2716DG for under 500 its a good deal.Would you guys pretend like you didn't know me if I just stuck with a TN panel? I'm not enough of an enthusiast to throw $800 at a monitor.

Thoughts?
Okay so right now I have a Dell S2716DG Gsync TN panel sitting edge-to-edge with a Dell U2717D IPS panel (their newest baseline no frills IPS panel.)I don't think I can go back to a TN shitpiece after IPS.
