Best screen for color-grading and gaming?
Hi, I recently started working full-time as a video editor and my current screens do not suffice for the color grading work i need to do. I am also an avid gamer and would like this screen to be good for gaming too,

I currently have a Ryzen 7 5700x, 32gb ram @ 4000mhz and 1060 6gb(next upgrade after monitor-4070ti is looking like my next card..)
I ideally would like a screen that wont break the bank, is ideally 1440p (4k would suffer with my gpu?) 100hz+ for gaming and a really good response time(I play a lot of cs 2 and fps games). and a really good color gamut. (sRBG, rec.709 ..etc)

I know sacrifices will have to be made due to hardware, and budget, but what would you guys recommend?

Thanks in advance.

Well actually if you are doing heavy video editing then I would get a 4K IPS Monitor or even a decent OLED 4K TV. Use that as the high quality preview screen then for a "work" screen go with a 1440p 21:9 or even wider ratio Monitor so you can have apps basically full screen but also side by side on the ultra wide screen.
ViewSonic VP2785-4K 27" 4K Monitor This is what I am looking at at the moment. Any feedback.

I don't have any feedback on that particular screen but I am using a Viewsonic VX2718 144p 165mhz.

It is a quality screen in all regards. The only negative I have is its a bit cumbersome to change inputs.

Viewsonic has been a quality company for decades and I've owned many over the years. Hard to go wrong.

That is discontinued afaik and its replacement is $999; and has worse color than the Dell I linked you with 100% REC 709 and 98% DCI-P3.

I'd also concur with MoonC A T to look through rtings

https://www.rtings.com/monitor/tests/picture-quality/color-accuracy

You can sort ^ that by column to list highest rated Color accuracy (pre-calibration) to see which models they've tested as the best color accuracy from the factory.

That's too small and if you are doing video editing you want at least two screens.

Having one of the two (if limited to two screens) be an ultrawide monitor will help greatly with productivity

If going to use any 4K Monitor then it should be around 32 inches minimum
