I just bought a LG model 27GL850-B from BestBuy. It was an excellent condition open box and I have been impressed with it

27 a solid size. I would get 1440 144hz. I bought an LG on prime day for about 280. No complains at all. I wanted an ultra wide but seemed like too good of a deal to pass up. One day I will buy an ultra wide.

That's a 1440p 144hz TN panel for $400. Pretty awful deal IMO

Specs look good, but it doesn't say what type of panel, unless I'm missing it.

Do a little research on IPS vs. VA vs. TN panels and see which one fits you more.

scroll up champ.

the 27GL83A-B is widely considered the best bang for your buck @ 1440/144. same panel as the 850 series from BB and Amazon that sell for 100+ more, just no USB connections that I'm not even sure are for and no built in speakers (who uses the shitty built-in speakers anyway)
