Agreed

 

@anon7909 a 970 is not enough to play games at 1440p 60, let alone at 144hz, you would need to upgrade to a 1080 or something to do that

Hi, I'm thinking about getting a new monitor and here are my options (AUD):


A - 27" 1440p 60hz for $399 (Acer K272HUL)  
B - 27" 1440p 144hz for $729 (Acer XF270HU) - Also has freesync but I have an nvidia card
C - 27" 1440p 144hz g-sync for $999 (Acer XB271HU) - $270 premium for g-sync
D - Stick with my 1080p 60hz monitor (Asus MX239H)


I have a GTX 970 and I don't plan on upgrading in the near future. I don't play any competitive games, only single player.


Which one should I go with?

1080p.

 

the 970 will struggle at 1440p, it wont even reach 144fps in some games.

"Sulit" (adj.) something that is worth it

i7 8700K 4.8Ghz delidded / Corsair H100i V2 / Asus Strix Z370-F / G.Skill Trident Z RGB 16GB 3200 / EVGA GTX 1080Ti FTW3 / ASUS ROG SWIFT PG279Q

Samsung 850 EVO 500GB & 250GB - Crucial MX300 M.2 525GB / Fractal Design Define S / Corsair K70 MX Reds / Logitech G502 / Beyerdynamic DT770 250Ohm

1080 144Hz (not maxed out) or go for 1440 60Hz.

 

Or upgrade the GPU and get 1440p 144Hz but that's a lot of money to be spend.

Connection: 200mbps / 12mbps 5Ghz wifi
