The ViewSonic Elite XG270QC provides QHD resolution, vibrant colors and a tasteful curve — if your desk is big enough.

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.
