How does this monitor compare with the 27" Dell that went on front page earlier today?

This is a VA panel and the Dell FP is a IPS panel.

TN > VA > IPS.

TN is generally better for budget gaming monitors due to faster response times. IPS more vibrant colors. VA is kinda in the middle but really all depends on the actual panels as TN, VA and IPS can look better/worse depending on panel quality.

Seems like this would be good for gaming and very bad for excel. (Too low res for crisp text)
