Looking for a display

^Title. I got my hands on a gtx 970 from GA, and it really saddens me when I pair it up with a 768p TV. Here are the rules:

 

  1. Has to be 1080p. While I'd love to have a 1440p or 4k display, Brazil is stuck in 2008. Such resolutions are either too expensive (4k) or just plain don't exist (1440p).
  2. 23' or higher. I like big stuff. It will be single monitor setup anyway.

Given the constraints, I was thinking on this one. It's the only 144hz monitor I can afford here, is it good? If it's not, I guess I'll just cheap out and get a humble 60hz for half the price.

If you want better color then get a 1080p, 60Hz, IPS monitor: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824009483

 

I'm not sure about the prices in your country, but if you need 144Hz then I would get: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236313&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

Good ones :D

 

Being more serious, I usually blend the games I'm playing. Today Dota2, tomorrow Far Cry 4, next Tower Defense, right after a stealth one. I mix it a lot.
