144hz 1440p minimum spec

[NeoVal15]

Hello guys, 

 

I am new on the gaming society and i would like suggestions for monitors.

 

 My demand are to be 144hz minimum, and 2k (1440p). I don't mind the type of panel (IPS, TN VA) since i don't have any experience with that type of monitors

 

Also i don't mind either if it is G-sync or FreeSync

My budget is around 400 euros (Amazon.de Prices)

 

Please help

Do you have an AMD or Nvidia GPU? Even though Nvidia technically supports freesync I would not count on it.

Before I recommend anything, I want you to know about the pros and cons of those 3 panels

TN

Pros: Really fast respond time, higher refresh rate @lower cost

cons: REALLY, REALLY bad color accuracy and range.

 

IPS

Pros: Good color accuracy & viewing angle, decent respond time(not as good as )

cons: backlight bleeding, expensive

 

VA

Pros: ok-ish color accuracy, ok-ish price, ok-ish refresh rate

cons: long response time, will experience ghosting while gaming

 

So generally, IPS is the better display among all three, since backlight bleeding is easier to live with compare to crappy colors and ghosting. However, if you are really into competitive FPS, then TN is the way to go. Normally I would not recommend VN for gaming, but it is still an ok option if you want better color but not enough money for an IPS.

 

At your budget, Acer XF270HU is a pretty good monitor

1440p is not 2k.

 

personally I would try and get a IPS panel - in my opinion looks the nicest of all.

 

what GPU do you currently have ?

To be honest i prefer the IPS panel as well and i found this monitor as well: 

Acer Nitro VG270UP

Which the difference between the one that you suggested me is that the response time of this one is 1ms

Its funny because i've owned 4 VA panels and never seen any ghosting even when gaming. 

I've seen it on older TN's and IPS panels , I only have 1 newer TN now and no newer IPS (under 6y). The IPS definitely had good fidelity but it wasn't great gaming from everything i have read recently they have definitely improved for gaming anyways. 

 

And the VA image quality was worlds better than my TN screens.

 

Still using both types in a triple screen setup and the VA is much cleaner than the TN's its just the TN has higher hz and lower response lag on paper so i kept it as a center screen.
