Hi
I'm building a new PC for photo editing (and I bit of video editing) and I would like a monitor with ~100% AdobeRGB coverage when editing photos for printing.
I have more or less chosen all the parts, but I'm having a really hard time choosing a monitor.
Basically I'm trying to choose between the following:
- Asus PA329C (not the older Q model)
- Benq SW321C
- Benq SW270C
I'm having a really hard time finding reviews of the Asus.
On paper it looks really nice and it seems it has technology to ensure uniformity across the display.
It's also cheaper then the Benq SW321C - and it even has a bit better coverage of DCI-P3 (not that it really matters to me).
However, what somewhat matters to me is the input lag as I would like to use the monitor for occasionally playing games. In this regard the older PA329Q seems quite good (18 ms) while Benq seems to hover around 30 ms. Mind you, I'm not a "gamer" - if I were I would buy the right tool for the job, I just want to play single player games without too much disconnect between control input and monitor display.
30 ms VS 18 ms is not making the choice for me but could sway me in the direction of the Asus all else being roughly equal.
So, enough about the secondary use.
Apart from choosing between the two 32" models I also cannot seem to figure out if I really need a 32" monitor - maybe a 1440p 27" is good enough and it would save me a significant amount of money that I could use on a new lens or gear for my other hobby: Drumming in a blues band.
I'm getting fairly tired of my wavering in this decision so I would really appreciate some input.
Thanks in advance.
