Can't decide on a monitor.

Currently I have a 390 nitro and an i5 4690k. Right now I have a really crappy 5ms response time ips  60 hz asus monitor. I play games like counterstrike and overwatch so I am wanting to get something a bit more fit for fps games. I have found a few monitors in my price range. 

1. http://www.amazon.com/AOC-G2460PF-24-Inch-Gaming-Monitor/dp/B01BV1XBEI?ie=UTF8&keywords=144hz freesync&qid=1465269439&ref_=sr_1_1&sr=8-1

2. http://www.amazon.com/BenQ-XL2411Z-Monitor-Supported-seamless/dp/B00ITORITU?ie=UTF8&keywords=benq gaming monitor&qid=1465268389&ref_=sr_1_5&s=pc&sr=1-5

3. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B013CRPUBQ?psc=1

4. http://www.amazon.com/AOC-G2460PQU-Ultimate-Performance-Professional/dp/B00HY7PAUC?ie=UTF8&keywords=aoc 144 hz freesync&qid=1465268583&ref_=sr_1_2&sr=8-2

BenQ is a really trusted brand I know that much but the other monitors have freesync which would be nice to have. What monitor would you recommend out of the four. Are nixeus and aoc good quality brands that I would be fine trusting. Or should I give up freesync for what I am assuming is better build quality overall with BenQ. Thanks for the recommendations! :D

I'd go with the Benq panel just for the refresh rate and response time.

Aren't the other 3 also 144hz and 1 ms?

I sit really close to my monitor so anything above 24 inches is too large for me. Also I am really wanting to have 144hz.

its 21:9 and has the pixel density of a 22" 1080p monitor. also its ips (better colors) and goes up to 75hz.

but honestly freesync is more important than refresh rate to me.
