if everyone held everything against everyone, i would still be shamed for mispeling defecting as defecating when writing post about ukrainian soldiers

nah, but it turned into a thing anyway. as forum insults go it's pretty mild

because of this work thing I have 50 per cent off all HP products so I was going to grab a new monitor too, especially because i can write it off as a business expense. problem is, HP apparently doesn't make any good monitors anymore

like I reviewed this one for them and it was great, but it's a $1600 professional monitor with perfect colour accuracy. they dn't make anything with g-sync or free-sync, and they're no longer making their 1440p monitor that everyone loved

if you are willing to spend a big buck even with your discount, there are some 27" HPs that appear to be ok, like http://www.anandtech.com/show/8739/hp-z27x-review

yeah, that's the thing. at $700 they're in a terrible price point - you can get a cheap 1440p panel for $300-400, or a really nice one with G-sync for $800-900.
