Hey people, basic question..

 

Been looking around for a decent monitor for awhile and I think I have settled on this one https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-079-AC&groupid=17&catid=1851

 

Was wandering if anyone had any better choices?

 

G-sync is required as well as around or above 120hz

Quite happy with a 1080p 24" but can be pushed otherwise. 

 

Location: UK

Price range: Max £400

 

Cheers!

Here are all your available choices mate:

 

Acer XB240H (One you said)

Acer Predator XB270H 27" version (£240) http://www.amazon.co.uk/Acer-Predator-XB270Hbmjdprz-Gaming-Monitor/dp/B00LVP4220

AOC G2460PG (£300) http://www.scan.co.uk/products/24-aoc-g2460pg-144-hz-g-sync-gaming-display-displayport-1920x1080-350cdm2-80m1-1ms-usb-hub

BenQ XL2420G (£380)  https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-112-BQ

 

So I would go for the 27" Acer if it were me, for that price, not bad at all. 

 

Anything else in the g sync market (That's got the refresh rate you want) goes out of your price range 

i5 4690k | GTX 980Ti G1 Gaming | 16GB RAM | MSI Z97 Gaming 7 | NZXT Kraken X61 | 850 EVO 250GB x2  | 1TB 850 Evo | NZXT Noctis 450 | EVGA 750W 80+ Gold

Thanks for the quick reply man, looking like I'm just going for the one I've posted. G-sync is a must with the games I play :D

No worries aha, just to clarify though all the 1s I linked were g sync (In fact the only other available 1080p gsyncs at 144Hz aha) D: even the Acer Predator XB270H for only £237 on amazon! (Cheaper than the 24") do you just prefer a 24" screen? o:

Sadly that 27" model does not offer the g-sync otherwise I would have purchased it haha 

Plus for 1080p 24" is preferable imo  :)

Wow I really hate Amazon's way of listing things... LOL 

This was the 1 I was meant to link you: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Acer-Predator-XB270HAbprz-Monitor-Displayport/dp/B00LX2J17W/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1437076522&sr=1-1&keywords=Acer+XB270HA

I was wondering why it got so cheap, just assumed it had some Prime Day leftover sale or something  :D

Sorry about that
