Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQL5A vs KTC H27T6

**Hey guys,**
Can't make up my mind on a new 1440p monitor and really need some help. Right now I'm looking at two options:

**\* Asus TUF Gaming VG27AQL5A (around $200)**
**\* KTC H27T6 (around $165)**

The Asus looks super solid and well-built, which I really like, but I have no idea how the colors and contrast compare to the KTC. Is it actually worth the extra $35?

I'll be using it mostly for work (a lot of Excel and Word, so I need sharp, readable text), but I also game quite a bit. For multiplayer I mostly play Valorant, but I also love heavy single-player games like Cyberpunk, GTA V, and I'm obviously waiting for GTA VI.

Pushing frames won't be an issue since I just built a PC with a Ryzen 7 9800X3D and an RTX 5070 Ti.

I live in Europe, so I'll be buying from Amazon.de. If there's any other/better model on German Amazon around the €150 - €200 mark that I missed, please let me know.

Thanks!

Monsgeek M1 QMK should I buy it in 2026?

I found one at my local marketplace for about 80$ should I buy it?
I need a new keyboard and I hate wireless ones. I know that this keyboard might be not the newest one so I am asking you if is it worth it?

Lookin for keyboard - I am kinda picky :P

Hey! I am looking for a decent mechanical keyboard but it has to mark those points:

  1. Wired - and only wired, I am done with wireless keyboards - they always dissapointed me by breaking at the most unfavorable time.

  2. Has to have aluminium/metal body - my current now have it - endorfy thock tlk and I love it.

  3. Has to be white/grey just light color but not too white - I will also use it at daytime so I need to see the keycaps letters ;D

  4. Size: Best TLK, but 75% is also considerable.

  5. Budget: about 100/130$ but I am from Europe so not every keyboard from US is available here.

Thanks!
