Looking for a 144Hz monitor for less than 700€

I was looking to custom liquid cool my build but instead decided to get a new monitor since my current one is a bit crap. 1080p 60hz  with tons of motion blur (Samsung S24D390HL 23,6") the monitor would have to be 24" or bigger the resolution doesn't really matter. 1440p would be nice but I haven't looked into monitors for ages so I don't know if its possible at this price point. I have a EVGA GTX 1080 FTW so it can definitely run 1440p.

Lol a 1080 at 1080p60.

 

MG/PG278 or 9Q or the Acer alternatives are solid

That's an F in the profile pic

Get a larger monitor. I have one 1440p Asus monitor that i got for 300 CAD and can OC to 75 hz. My second monitor is a Dell S2715H.

Wow that's a pretty good monitor. do you know if there is a difference between the Q and QR or is it just a regional difference for example?

Larger would be nice and I'm not too sure about monitor overclocking. I'm probably not gonna want to do it

It is fine, just do it in first increments of 3-5 and go down my one once it stops working. It is VERY easy
