Using an LG Ultragear 34GK950F-B. Interested in upgrading to a 16:9. What's the best 27 inch monitor for gaming? (self.pcgaming)

I want to switch back to a traditional 16:9 and looking for opinions on the best 27 inch monitor currently available. A lot of folks on Amazon seem to dig this one from AOC, but I've never bought anything other than Dell or LG over the years. It's inexpensive, that's for sure.

If money isn't a problem, consider going OLED. There's a couple of 27" models hitting the market and once you go OLED, it's hard to go back.

Money is no problem. I'll include that in my search. I guess burn in isn't a problem anymore?

I'd say burn-in is definitely still a potential problem, but most of the manufacturers are putting great warranties on the panels just in case. Mine came with a 3 year warranty. I have suffered no burn-in after a year, but I only use HDR mode when in games (becuase Windows' HDR is garbage). Still worth it.
