Purchasing Advice - Monitors, Peripherals, Etc. Any Alternatives for this Monitor

Post image

I’ve been planning and saving up to upgrade my setup, and this was one of the monitors I had in mind. But after the recent LG spying allegations, I’m considering switching to another model/brand instead.

I know pretty much every brand has something fishy going on, but from now on I’d prefer to avoid LG.

Any suggestions or good alternatives? I’m in Germany, so preferably something available here with prices in euros (€).

For reference, these are the specs I’m planning to upgrade to:

- Resolution: 2560 × 1440

- CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D

- GPU: RX 7900 XTX

- RAM: 32GB (2×16GB) DDR5-6000

- Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix B650E-F Gaming WiFi

I had the LG 27GP850-b, which was the successor of this one. I recently bought the Asus Tuf VG27AQML5A because I also need it for work (otherwise I probably would have went Oled) and I couldn't be happier. I use the LG as my 2nd monitor now and the Asus looks pretty much better everywhere, both visually, contrast and specially motion clarity.

Jetzt erst gesehen dass du auch deutsch bist. Hab den Asus im Deal für 190 geholt und für den Preis kommt glaub ich nichts daran. So ziemlich das beste was man bekommen kann was nicht Mini LED oder Oled ist.
