Howdy my fellow gurus Just bought a 4k tv other day now id like to change my crappy acer 1080p monitor. What I had in mind was a Lg (my tv is also lg) it's a 25" ultrawide 75hz refresh rate 2560x1080 2 HDMI inputs. $155 over at Microcenter what do you guys think? I don't have a huge budget for g-sync so I need to make some compromises here and still get something decent. $200 max. Gfx card is Asus strix gtx 980 I should be ok pushing 2560x1080 on that card? Iam kinda bummed it does not have dvi or dp input,I find Hdmi to have washed out colors what should I do?

If you get a 25" ultrawide, it's going to be very small. A 25" ultrawide has the same height as a 19.8" 16:9. If your current monitor is a 24" 16:9, anything below 31" ultrawide is going to feel like a downgrade because of the reduced height. (30" ultrawide is only slightly shorter than a 24" 16:9.)
Go QHD instead.. Your 980 will handle it fine.. I just picked this up a month ago and love it.. Was a nice upgrade from my 27in 1080p monitor. It also says it's 60Hz but it'll do 70 out of the box and 75 with manual overclocking as it's basically an HP Omen in a different package. https://www.amazon.com/HP-Pavilion-...qid=1521417733&sr=8-1&keywords=hp+pavilion+32
You could always go with a 27” 144Hz QHD G-sync monitor. I picked up a Dell version a few weeks ago. I came from a 27” QHD Qnix panel and the refresh rate (my Qnix maxed out at 110Hz) and G-sync were game changers for me.
