Replace monitors now or later?

[Ralf]

I currently own a LG 24MP59G(75Hz) which is 2.5years old and two ~6years old TN DVI 60Hz monitors.

I would like to replace those two with 24MP59G so that all 3 monitors are the same and because now when game runs on the main(75Hz) monitor and video on the side(60Hz), the game on the main locks to 60fps and it feels like i'm playing on 30fps.

Do these new monitors last long just like the 10years old LG Flatrons? Should I wait for the next mode line or buy now?

Upgrade. Only get TN panels if you dont want ghosting in dark scenes. The 165hz tn panels have good prices now. Edit: 5 yrs ago 144hz cost 300$ and now 165hz is 250$

You are unable to set the monitor with the game to 75Hz in the games settings? Strange, unless you use the monitors as a single monitor (surround/eyefinity) but then they would all be the same refresh rate at desktop too I believe..

I'm fine with 1080p 75Hz since gpu's are crazy expensive here.

The main monitor with games run at 75Hz, but whenever I start a video/etc on the 60Hz side monitor, the main get's locked to 60Hz(or 60fps), I need to close or minimize it so that to get the game run at 75Hz again.
