I think the answer to that is subjective, both types of panels (and its numerous variants) have pros and cons. You can read more at tftcentral.

But the deciding factor may be availability and price. There are far more IPS panels than VA ones.

Should I buy a 250x1440 or a 1920x1080p? I want a 27 inch.

Is these good moniter for gaming?

Asus MX279H (27 inch IPS 1920x1080, 5ms, 76hz) - 300 Euros

Asus PB278Q (27 inch PLS 2560x1440, 5ms, 60hz) - 500 Euros

Asus VG278HE (27 inch TN 1920x1080, 2ms, 144hz) - 375 Euros

Which to get?

Also, what's the difference between PLS and TN?

If you really want a 27" monitor, then I think you'll better with a higher resolution screen. After all, if you have a big monitor with a small resolution, the pixels will have to be bigger to fill it, so you'll see them more easily, which will be bad for games (for the jaggies and all that, you'll have to use more AA).

As for PLS vs TN, a PLS panel is similar to an IPS one so the differences should be the same as between an IPS vs a TN panel : IPS/PLS has better colours and viewing angles (if you move left and right or up and down you still see the same colours while in TN panels they become more washed out), while TN panels have lower latency and are cheaper.

Does it has to be ASUS? I'm curious because there are many other options (Dell, HP, Samsung, etc).
