Is the monitor good enough?

[Azriel]

I plan on buying this monitor http://www.amazon.com/dp/B009POS0GS/?tag=pcpapi-20 and this GPU http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NN0GEXQ/?tag=pcpapi-20  Is the monitor not good enough? Would it hinder the performance of the GPU? If it does would this monitor be better http://www.amazon.com/BenQ-Gaming-Monitor-RL2455HM-24-Inch/dp/B007HSKSMI

The monitor will never hinder your GPU performance, unless you change the resolution (1080p, 1440p, 4k).  The difference between those two monitors is the latency, witch means how fast the monitor can process the image being sent to it from the GPU.  If you do buy a 970 either get a 1440p or 1080p at 120/144Hz.  Or else you'll just be wasting your money, if you only want one 1080p panel at 60Hz just get a 960, it does just fine at 1080p.

So even the BenQ one is not worth it?

if you do buy the BenQ just buy at 960 and it'll be amazing. but if you stick with the 970 get one of the Korean 1440p monitors (xstar, qnix, etc).  Because I personally think 1440p is better then higher refresh, but it's up to you.
