Not over 3500sek (550$) and yes it can run in 1440p

You need to quote a post or tag a member or else they won't get a notification you replied to them.

 

Are you getting a monitor for competitive gaming for the frames or are you getting one that will look good? 

Also, specs of your system?

Oh, ok sorry for that...

Graphics card: GeForce gt 525M (1gb memory)

Ram: 8gb

(It's a laptop so it's not that great...)

Processor: Intel core i7-2670QM

Couldn't find any more specs at their webpage...

(My computer is a Toshiba satellite L755-1DR)

Because the one I have now is small as hell and sucks...

And I'm going to buy a gaming rig soon

Why not save up and just get the new system as a whole sooner?

I said I wanted one for gaming, witch means I need a fast refresh rate and response time, not 60hz and 7ms gtg as the one you sent me...

The way gtg is measured varies depending on who you're asking. Basically, the response time spec is bull. Also, your laptop most likely doesn't have the proper connector for 120/144 fps.
