240hz or 1440p 144hz

[KSores]

basically all i do in my pc is play and occasionally stream competitive overwatch

i'm looking into upgrading my monitor that i game on but i'm not sure what i would like better

right now i have a 144hz 1080p monitor and it is nice but i would love a higher resoloution, i realize how bad 1080p is at 27 inches frequently because this monitor is beside a 4k monitor and a 3440x1440 one

but on the other hand 144hz is amazing and so so so much better then 60hz, i just want to make sure i'm not missing out on something huge not getting a 240hz screen

Edit: i have a gtx 1080 so i should be able to run either

Some people can't see the difference between 144Hz to 240Hz,but it depends on your experience.

I think the sweet spot is a 1440p 144Hz display.

Also know that usually you will have to go VA instead of IPS on 240hz monitors. and expense of course rises with each feature added
