Why do you need 280hz? You say your mostly playing GTA so 280hz is kinda useless.

Seems like hes targeting high frarmerates, and the old monitor in his list was 1080p so why not.
Also i'm not a fan of 1440p 144hz because I mostly play competitive games, so i'd rather have something like 1080p 240hz instead of 1440p 144 (but thats just me!)

Completely agree, imo the difference in resolutions on small monitors is not really noticable to myself atleast so i prefer to target high frame rates. Much smoother experience all the way!
