Picking a 24" Monitor ready for Cyberpunk 2077

So I am building a new system ready for Cyberpunk 2077 - 1st world problem being that the new machine is easily going ot outperform my existing 60Hz monitors. The honest truth is I just don't understand how to compare the various panel types, refresh rates, resolutions to get the most out of what I am doing. So my aim is to find a 24" monitor with a preference for colour and resolution over refresh rates. I usually play RTS, RPG, dungeon crawler type games so won't really be playing anything 'twitchy' enough to justify really high refresh rates. Can anyone provide some guidance/ suggestions?

27" IPS Gsync 144Hz is what i would choose with your Specs.

Acer and Asus have good Options in that range. Displays are the same, so you can choose by Looks.

 

What about Ultra Wide?

Looking for 24" as I'm using a multimonitor setup and 24 is the largest which will fit on my desk. Don't want to use an ultrawide as I like the physical seperation of multiple monitors. I was thinking Gsync and 144Hz though so will take that  into consideration.

Get a new desk. A 24" 1080p monitor doesn't belong in a setup like that.

If you're not getting higher resolution monitors, get a cheaper graphics card.

My desk is as long as it can be, though I may look at re-arranging my desk and just drop from a triple to dual monitor setup to allow for a 27" display.
