Wanting to get two new 1080p or 1440p monitors with a refresh of at least 120. Any suggestions?

dont see the point in getting two of the same display, id recommend:

1x 60hz VA

1x 144hz TN

this might sound dumb but what does VA and TN mean?

Basically a VA screen will have deeper blacks (contrast) and the colours wont shift when the looking at the display at a slight angle.

 

A TN screen has faster response times and is best viewed front on.

 

Having a secondary TN display can be annoying as viewing TN displays at an angle you will notice a washout in the colours.
