I can see myself having a similar problem there. I currently live between 2 countries and go back in the summer. I'll be using this new monitor out of summer so whenever I go to my other home I have to use a 1080p 60hz IPS monitor. In that case maybe a 60hz 1440p monitor might be best for me now. I also wont be using this monitor specifically for gaming, I will use it for studying and watching movies, etc. I read up that 144hz monitors wont affect movies and streaming content which is probably what I do most currently. Also since you mentioned overclocking, I havent tried overclocing my ryzen 5 1600 yet. It is running at stock settings. Probably will experiment with that too and find what kind of fps difference it makes. Thanks for the help.

Do you think a single gtx 1080 can take advantage of 1440p at higher refresh rates? I was experimenting with r6s last night since it has the option to render the game at higher resolutions and found that it averages about 85-90 fps at 1440p. Would a 144hz monitor benefit frames in the 80-90 region?

I've recently found this monitor on sale, the AOC G2460PG NVidia GSYNC. I can get it for below 300 pounds. Any thoughts on this monitor? It is g-sync and 144hz at 1080p 24 inches. But it is a TN panel.

Thank you guys for the input. Will try to keep looking for a decent 144hz monitor then.

My current rig is a Ryzen 5 1600 with a GTX 1080. I am looking to get a new monitor to replace my current hp pavillion 23xi that is 4 years old. I am stuck at a decision between a 24inch 1080p 144hz vs 27inch 1440p 60hz monitor. Currently there is a good deal on the samsung LC24FG70 which seems to have gotten very good reviews. I am stuck because I am not too sure if my rig would be able to push 1440p resolution max settings for games I play. I play a mixture of MOBAs, withcher 3, R6S, and other single player RPG games occasionally. From the games I play, it probably makes more sense to go for a 144z screen as currently for most of the games im getting more than 100fps for them. But I would also enjoy a slightly bigger screen as I feel like that would be a more visible improvement for me I think? P/S: I have never seen 144hz in action yet so cant tell what I am missing out for now.
