Cheap but Good 1440p monitor

[Fhyrion]

Can anyone suggest good 1440p monitors for use with my PC (amd fx 9590, gtx 980, 16gb ram) ?

I was looking to get something around 300 to 400 USD. 

I would like faster response times over correct colors, but i'm not picky considering the budget.

Sean nailed it on the head with that monitor at that price! OK it's a little more but it's a cracking monitor regardless.

Yeah, I will agree that it's a good monitor, but the closer I get to 300, the better chance I have of justifying getting a multi-monitor setup.

How about both colors and response times?

This looks good. Do you own this personally? And if so, do you feel it would work well in a dual monitor setup?

I doubt you're going to be playing games across two monitors (because the bezel right down the middle...) so the second monitor doesn't have to be the same.

 

This Acer IPS one is cheaper unless you can't get it from Microcenter.

 

I don't own it personally.

 

You're right. My main panel Is the one I want to have a good response time. The other panel will just be for productivity. 

Unfortunately, the closest Microcenter to me is 4 hours away. I might be able to make the trip, but the cost of the gas to get there and back 

wouldn't really justify the savings.

Alright thanks for the help guys. My main will probably be the BenQ listed above. As for the second, I'll have to keep looking, cause the benQ is too expensive for me right now.

Ill just use my current monitor as a second screen for now. Thanks!

I just checked the price of that monitor in the UK, and my god, it would most likely be cheaper to pay the customs cost to purchase over there, and ship it here. D:

I just checked and I was mind blown by how cheap it is! you can buy two of them on the US amazon for the price of one on the UK amazon. wow.
