Quote from duxI want one for gaming and one for work. 24 inch preferable due to space.
Budget?
I'm going to hope that's £300 per screen:
Just a quick look, but it gives you an idea of where to go from.
I use mounting arms at work and will be getting them at home too. They're pretty handy for saving space as it almost removes the monitor's footprint on your desk.
4K on a 24" monitor looks a bit like waste to me. If there is space for a 27" 4K monitor(below the budget limit) go for it.
I've got the 27" version of the BenQ and can't fault it.
I've got the XL2420Z whcih is a slightly earlier model and it's doing me fantastically well. Yellow's are pretty washed out, but then it's for gaming not colour accurate work. I boost the colour with digital vibrance anyway.
Regarding the ViewSonic: Tom's Hardware Article
I've linked straight to the conclusion, but the whole article is there. TLDR: 4K is steadily replacing 1080p as the standard resolution, and quite honestly for that price why not?
The panel is cheaper to make than finding a higher colour bit monitor at a lower "sensible" resolution. I'll happily keep poking around, but it does seem to be rated pretty highly.
How do you guys stack Hz, ms, resolution, contrast etc against each other? for a gaming montior, what do you prioritize? I really really like my 144hz when I have a game where I can reach those framerates, but they are getting fewer and fewer as my rig is getting older. Can you get a monitor with noice Hz, low ms and something above 1080 if you pay a little more?
Asus PG279Q if you don't care about the price tag. I want it so badly

Each generation has a standard, and because there are more brands than panel manufacturers, a lot of the underlying hardware is the same. It's no coincidence that Acer and ASUS brought out 165Hz 1440p panels within a month of each other.
Personally I put refresh rate, resolution, and response time together. I then look to my preferred brands which is purely personal taste and not necessarily what's "best".
We're now seeing 144Hz screens with 1440p resolutions with IPS technology so you have the better colour and viewing angles again, but they don't offer quite the same response time at 4ms compared to the 1ms of TN panels.

My dad has one, it's pretty sweet 
(except he only fucking tries to play guildwars on it 
)
You also keep sharing 27" screens 
I'm packing a pair of these suckers, if you want pure quality and color accuracy these are the real deal, they are not some insane refresh rate gaming panel, but for work they are incredible and easy on the eyes. Don't be fooled by insane specs that are useless in the real world, you get what you pay for, so pure, uniform brightness, no eye strain etc, they blow the ultrasharps out the water (we have dual dell ultrasharps 27" at work) totally recommend these nec's if you have the budget http://www.necdisplay.com/p/desktop-monitors/pa242w-bk considering what I spend on the rest of my PC, I would never buy a cheaper monitor again, it's so worth the stretch if you can afford it.
