Advice for a new monitor

[Twitch77]

At the moment I'm using MSI 27" WQHD G-SYNC Gaming Monitor 2560x1440. My video card is a 4070 Super. Is there something that would be worth the upgrade that is under $500?
I use it for a little bit of everything from gaming to movies to regular everyday use.

Thank you in advance!

That's a pretty decent monitor you have tbh. The OLED monitors are pretty spendy atm.

Maybe a new keyboard, mouse, mouse pad or headset? ........ monitor you have sounds just fine IMHO

Youre definitely looking for an OLED, anything else is going to be a side grade. Wait for prices to come down or save a bit more.

I'm after one at some point myself, keeping an eye on how things progress.

Most monitors over 27 inch are also 4k now, so if you were after a bigger screen it would need to be 4k. I noticed that this year when I was looking around. I had wanted a 32inch 2k screen but they don't appear to exist any more.

Thank you for the feed back everyone!

Newly released ones maybe. You can still pickup monitors like the

MSI MAG 325CQRF-QD​

for around £300. That's a 32 inch curved 170hz 1440p VA panel monitor.
I wouldn't upgrade to this from a 27 inch one though. As other's have said upgrade other bits then maybe in a few years time a new GPU.

I already have a 32inch 1440p screen running at 144hz

It wouldn't really be much of an upgrade for me to jump from 144 to 170. I was hoping for faster really... and HDR.
I probably have to get 4k when I upgrade next time as the chances of finding a flat screen 32inch 1440p screen with a faster refresh rate are really slim. I hope to be able to wait until I get next GPU to do that - and since I don't know what that is yet (it doesn't exist), that might be a while.

Depends on specs of ops current monitor as to how much of a jump that one is.
