LG has a pretty decent 32" 1440p 144hz Freesync monitor (non-curved), the LG-32GK650F-B that currently sells for about $300 (if you can get one at Microcenter) or if not from $340 (from Buy Dig). I got one at Microcenter and I'm liking it so far. The colors are pretty good after a quick menu adjustment and the latency isn't bad either. I've tested the G-Sync capability and it works just fine after checking the box in nvidia control panel. Hardware Unbox also did a review on this monitor and they also gave it a thumbs up.

That monitor looks awesome im from Australia and best price from having a look then is around 750 so a bit out of my price range for now.

I looked at the pricing on Mwave and it looks like it's selling for $499: https://www.mwave.com.au/product/lg-32gk650fb-315-144hz-qhd-freesync-va-gaming-monitor-ac19554

I assume that's in AUD and not in USD?
