Hi: I'm looking to buy a new high quality monitor for my computer. I've been around UHH for awhile and have learned a lot. I'm handicapped and it takes me a long time to type, so that's why you haven't heard much for me. I want a high quality ips moniter to view pictures. Any advice would be a great help. I won't be able to set it up, but my wife can.

This BenQ SW2700PT 27" 16:9 Photographer IPS Monitor got the best ratings for photo editing in a couple of places; there are some larger versions, too (I do not own one, but I have been researching to replace a failed monitor). It covers 99% of the Adobe RGB color space and all of the sRGB color space. For a look at more, Google the category, i.e., "best monitor for photo editing."

Like most everything else, "high quality" can mean different things depending upon the price range you are looking at. Are you looking for the "best available," or did you have a general price range in mind?

In the absence of a price guide check out a Dell UP3216Q. I use one as my main monitor. It is fantastic.

I got a BenQ EW3270U Video Enjoyment 31.5" 16:9 4K/HDR LCD Monitor From B&H Photo. It cost $450. I absolutely love it.

I have been using a Dell P2715Q since the model was introduced (before the terms UHD and 4K became so prevalent) and have loved it.

I really like my BenQ SW2700PT 27". I bought it from B&H on my Payboo to save the tax.
