If you’re a fan of IPS displays, the XG270QG should be on your short list: 1440p at 165Hz is a perfect sweet spot, with a great response time and built-in G-Sync to boot. Its black levels aren’t very deep, and it’s a bit more expensive, but it’s still a killer display for any high-end gaming setup.

This 165Hz display has one of the slickest IPS panels of any gaming monitor, but it will cost you.

It looks gorgeous when it's off, and just as lovely when it's on. Only the premium price-tag - £669 - is a negative, even if G-SYNC equipped displays are always at the pricier end of the spectrum, and the ViewSonic Elite XG270QG wins our OC3D Gamers Choice Award.
