Need help with new monitors

Hey there! 

I need a monitor right now, and later on I will buy another one (So, just letting you know that in advance).

 

I am not sure if I should go with the Asus 144hz monitor (Or Benq 144hz monitor, they're both ~270 dollars) or if I should go with this Asus monitor http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236307

 

I am going to be playing games on the pc, but I want to know,

Which set up will be better with Dual monitors? 2 144hz (Either Asus or Benq, side not.. Which one is better? Asus or Benq?) or should I go with 2 60hz Asus VN247H-P? 

Thanks again! 

Current Build:

 

CPU: Core i5-9600K MOBO: Asus strix z390-i RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB - 3200mhz GPU: Asus Geforce GTX 970 Strix Storage: Samsung SSD 500GB & Samsung 1TB SSD Case: Louqe Ghost S1 Cooler: Noctua L12 - 92mm fan only PSU: Corsair SF600 Keybaord: Ducky Shine 3 Cherry MX Red

Budget?

 

Right now, I am planning on getting 1 out of the dual monitor set-up I want. 

My budget for the monitor is max, ~290 or less. 

Hence why I was browsing the Asus and BenQ 144hz monitors, but wasn't sure if having 2 dual monitors with 144hz is a good idea.

Wouldn't really matter, you can't use them at the same time for gaming anyway.

Well, I mean, I want to get the best 2 that I can... I just don't know if I should go with the 144hz for 100 dollars more, or if I should just take the normal 60hz monitor for 

170 dollars. Keeping in mind that I will purchase the same monitor later on (in around 3-4 months). 

And if I do go with the 144hz, I wanted to know which one was the best. The Asus one or the BenQ one.

So... Anyone got any ideas? 
Not sure if I should save a bit of money and go with the 60hz Asus one with 2 ms, or a BenQ/Asus 144 Hz.
