What should I look for when buying a monitor?

I would like to buy two monitors.

One for gaming and one for watching videos, editing pictures.

What should I watch out for when gaming?

HDR, refresh rate and input lag right? Is there anything else?

IPS panel possibly

what color representation should it have? 1.07 billion Contrast?

unfortunately I have no idea. There's so much thrown in my face, I don't even know what is decisive.

Do I need a 4K monitor for image processing and watching films?
or is WQHD enough?

What should I pay attention to with such a monitor.

What do you think of this one?

I chose them because, for example, they also fit together quite well in terms of design.

I have a GeForce. Do I really need this sync thing or does it matter whether AMD or NVIDIA?

I like to play and often I'm not a pro player and I do not plan to become one.

I think great pictures are nice but I probably play these games on ps4.

I play something like MMORPGS or COD, Overwatch on the PC.

I hope you can help me out and give me some tips.

My recommendation is to buy an IPS panel for both gaming and video. This offers you both a very good speed, as well as excellent colors and contrasts. Everything above 120Hz is very good for gaming, of course also 60Hz for video long ones. G-Sync is a nice thing if you can use it, but Freesync is also possible with Nvidia. In both cases you benefit because it reduces tearing and ghosting.

Whether WQHD or 4K is more a personal decision. In my opinion, 4K only makes sense from 32 inches or more. For a 27er WQHD is completely sufficient.

I personally use the 27 'Acer Predator XB1 with an RTX 2070 Super - I can definitely recommend it.

Thanks for the answer.

Then I buy 2 WQHD monitors or the big Samsung. But I definitely have to think about it again.
I also looked at the Acer Predator. This is a bit too expensive for me with 600 euro, although it has no HDR

With Nvidia FreeStyle you can activate HDR without an HDR monitor. That makes more sense at the moment because very few games support HDR on their own. 600 euro is definitely expensive - for mine I paid 450 euro at MM.

I didn't know that you can activate HDR.

Check out Nvidia FreeStyle and Nvidia Ansel. It's something like ReShade if that tells you what. I personally find it very successful.

Ne unfortunately tells me nothing.
can you possibly tell me briefly whether the screens are OK?
And whether the Curved from Samsung might be even better than the two from Acer or the WQHD Monitor or the XB1.
I can't make up my mind.
The Samsung has only one VN panel, unfortunately.

The first Acer B277 is the worst of the 3 (because of its 4ms response time). The Nitro and Samsung are almost identical with an advantage for the Acer. The Acer Nitro has a much better contrast and a smaller pixel pitch, which makes the picture sharper and crisper in the end. The power consumption of the Samsung is also twice as high (it is also twice as large). In general, the 4K models are a bit worse in technology than the WQHD models.

All right.
