can I get some advice on my upgrade to a 1440p monitor?

I've been using a 1080p [BenQ ZOWIE XL2411P](https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/benq/zowie-xl2411p) for the last 5 years and want to upgrade to a 1440p monitor. I'm currently looking at either the [AOC Q27G3XMN](https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/aoc/q27g3xmn) or the [LG 27GP850-B](https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/lg/27gp850-b-27gp83b-b) The AOC is miniLED while the LG is nano IPS. Both seem like a big upgrade from the BenQ TN panel. I've never seen in person the difference of miniLED or nano IPS so while there are varying pros and cons out on the internet I can't make sense which is better. For reference my PC specs are: GPU: Nvidia 3060 CPU: AMD 5800x3D RAM: 32GB 3600mhz I tend to play multiplayer games instead of singleplayer games. I don't think my PC is going to be able to push max hz at 1440p but a GPU upgrade is next on my list after the monitor. I occasionally watch Youtube or Twitch and rarely sit and watch movies at my desk. Do you guys reccomend either the AOC or LG monitor or something else?
