I want to buy a new monitor - help wanted.

centurion_08

Current setup:

Ryzen 7600
ASRock B650M HDV/M.2
32GB Patriot Viper DDR5 6000Mhz CL30
MSI GTX 1660 Super Ventus 6GB

Little context:
Since 1080p became a thing i stuck to it and never left.
Never had a boner about 2K/4K and still using my Sony Bravia FullHD TV/60Hz as a display.
Finally, the time came and i upgraded my pc parts.
I'm as mid as it can get.
Here Poland i now have some good deals on monitors so i want to bite the bullet.

DISCLAIMER.
Everybody i know told me, buying a monitor with high refresh rate and maybe higher resolution (1440p) is a 1 way ticket.
I'll prolly nevel look back and play games like i'm used to (60Hz)
I know you need stronger hardware to push it.

For the last 2 days i'm looking on websites comparing various models, panel types, refresh rates and features and it makes my head spin.
I don't wanna go lower than 32inch without good reason. I just can't see how (for example) 27 inch can improve my gaming experience.

Don't wanna break the bank either.

These are the models i found interesting:

HP Omen 32q 31,5" 2560x1440px IPS 165Hz 1 ms [GTG]

ASROCK Phantom Gaming PG32QF2B 31.5" 2560x1440px 165Hz 1 ms [MPRT]

GIGABYTE GS32Q 31.5"

AOC CQ32G2SE

Which 1 of them speaks to you the most. Honest and blunt opinions please.
I'm not aiming for top shelf as you can see. Would be better if stick to 1080p even after upgrading GPU or toss a coin and buy 1440p and then upscale if i run out of gpu juice?
How good 1080p will look on a 1440p monitor? Does it make sense to have a resoluion "headroom"?
So many questions but i'll welcome all answers.

Kind Regards.
I

Out of these 3, the HP model seems to be the best.

 

But also check if the LG 32GP850-B or 32GP83B-B are available. They're better than the 3 monitors you mentioned.

If someone did not use reason to reach their conclusion in the first place, you cannot use reason to convince them otherwise.
