Need a better display

Go to solution Solved by MadPistol,

A 2070 Super can handle 1440p with high framerates no issue. If it has a dead-pixel, return it for another one. Don't wait until the return period has passed. At that point, you'll be out of luck.

Hello LTT Community, I've recently built my very first custom gaming computer and I love everything about the new rig.

 

However, my only complaint right now is with my ViewSonic XG2402 monitor. While the monitor arrived with no damage it has an annoying dead pixel.  My minimum requirements for a new monitor right now is: IPS, 1MS, 144hz and G-Sync(or whatever works better) for my RTX 2070 Super. My brother was saying I should probably go with something 1440p but my only concern going from 1080p to a higher resolution would be losing frames. I'm still an absolute n00b for finding good monitors so I probably don't know what's best for me. Whatever it is, I was hoping I could get some good feed back from the LTT community on their personal experience with nice monitors. I'm not too concerned about price though if I were to put a reasonable price to aim for it would be no more than $500-$550. I'd just like something with no dead pixel and if it's going to have glow i'd like it to be blue instead of red which would blend better with my desk setup.

return it?

I could do that I suppose, just don't want to deal with the hassle of finding another box to ship it back in... (Never dealt with Amazon return before and don't want to) I was thinking of just giving it away as a gift to a friend who might need it after finding something to go with.
