how cheap can we go with 1440p 144hz monitors

Neuroticgecko86

Looking at a replacement for my 12 year old dell S2209W that has netted me with quite reputation when running it with a modern graphics card (theres no hdmi or display port). 

 

So Im planning to up my game to a decent monitor in what I call the magic 144's. I personally prefer having a VA panel over others because the better contrast ratios really butter my toast. So given that I'm buying in Australia which one of these appears to be crème de la crème of the cheapo but not really monitors.

 

Samsung CJG54 (this seems like a steal whats the caveat?) 

 

viewsonic vx2758-2kp-mhd 

 

AOC c127g1 (yes our lord and saviour linus did flame this pretty hard)

Watch hardware unboxed, they have a lots of monitor review videos, but tldr don't buy hdr capable monitor if the peak brightness is <400.
