Wondering which monitor to buy and if my build can run 1440p well

I made a post a bit ago about this build  here: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/262666-advice-about-a-build-suggested-to-me-by-a-redditor/

 

Here is my build in its current state: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/dirt/saved/JrCgXL

 

Since then I have been given the evga gtx 980 superclocked acx 2.0. I am posting because i don't know which monitor to buy. I want to run video games at 1440p and 60fps. I am in New York State, and at this moment I have around 700$ that I could spend on a monitor, although i would like to spend less than that. I only need one monitor, and peripherals don't matter that much at this point. 

 

Thank you for your time, I really appreciate it.

ROG swift?

I was thinking about it, but it is a bit pricy. I was hoping to find something less pricy that still is a solid 1440p monitor. and oh i didn't think of a non gsync one. I will check that out.

if you can afford it, ROG swift, if you can't, the PB278Q is well reguarded and is what I plan to buy when I have the funds.

edit: oh, and welcome to the forum!

Thank you for the warm welcome! and thanks for the suggestion. I will definitely check that out. That was a very helpful suggestion because i really have a limited amount of knowledge of monitors, and i really only hear about monitors from LTTs. thanks.
