The ViewSonic VX2758-2KP-MHD is a good 27 inch, 1440p monitor with great peak brightness and wide viewing angles. It delivers a great gaming experience, with low input lag, excellent response time, and support for AMD's FreeSync variable refresh rate technology to reduce screen tearing, but it has very few additional gaming features. Unfortunately, the stand has bad ergonomics with a very limited range of motion, so it might be difficult to place in an ideal viewing position. However, photography professionals should appreciate the excellent coverage of the Adobe RGB color space.

Fantastic horizontal viewing angle. Like most IPS monitors, the image remains accurate when viewed from the side.
Decent vertical viewing angle. The edges of the screen appear darker if you sit close and you lose some image accuracy if it's mounted above or below eye level.
This monitor has decent color accuracy out-of-the-box. Most scenes are displayed at the correct brightness levels, which is great, but there are some noticeable inaccuracies in all colors and shades of gray. This is good if you enjoy saturated colors, but isn't good if you rely on accurate colors.
After calibration, it has outstanding accuracy, with no noticeable inaccuracies in any colors or shades of gray.

Excellent response time, which is expected for a 144Hz monitor. The recommended Overdrive setting is 'Ultra Fast' as it has the quickest response time and clearest motion, but there's still overshoot in most transitions. If that bothers you, the 'Advanced' setting has significantly less overshoot, but there's some motion blur.
If you want a monitor with even faster response time, check out the ASUS TUF Gaming VG259QM.
