Surely this is to big to sit in front off? You'd have to turn your head side to side all the time?

Depends, some people sit with their nose pressed against the monitor (those people either need glasses or will need them shortly). I used to do that but now put my monitors at the back of the desk so a good 60-80cm away. 27" at that distance looks a little small so a 32" would probably be fine.

Most modern humans have eyes that move in their sockets so you move your eyes not your head. If you still have old style fixed eyes maybe better to upgrade those first before changing monitors?

I must admit, it does seem a bit on large side for a monitor. I think most people do move their head slightly when looking from one side of screen to other - I know I do.

The 27" gsync would've been ace at this price. Should I? Or shouldn't I?(fierce)

Shame it only has 2 USB 2.0 ports and not 3 USB 3.0 ports as per the description. Note that it does have 3 ports but 1 is upstream so it only has 2 you can plug devices into. Usual marketing BS.

From the q&a. Anyone with nvidia gtx1070 or lower model, won't get great refresh rate. Another commented on gtx1080, he saw no issues.
"I run a gtx1070 and although i won't get insane refresh rates it is a great monitor in its price range, not saying it gets bad refresh rates, just not impressive. No real stuttering unless i try to run what my card won't, it might be different for a 1080TI or similar cards but on my gigabyte manufactured Gtx1070 it works great."

I think you mean frame rates there, refresh rates aren't affected by the graphics card.
Frame rates will be identical for all monitors of this resolution.

Depends on what you're playing and the settings you're playing at. CS:GO on minimum settings will hit 75 fps really easily. Personally I'd rather be somewhere in the 40-60 range (60hz maximum on my monitors) with settings as high as possible. For multiplayer stuff 60fps takes priority over settings (in fact PUBG without the foliage is a benefit since people can't hide in the grass).
