What type of monitor would be best for me?

[JTB7]

I am currently looking at a 1080p 144hz, or a 1440p 60hz or a bit more if its cheap enough, as in $250 or less preferably.  I would love to get a 1440p 144hz, but they are way above my price range.  I have a gtx 1070, and play games like battlefield one, rainbow 6, rocket league, doom, the witcher, and fallout 4.  Could you guys recommenced a monitor for me, or what kind to get?

Games will benefit a lot more from more Hz than from resolution but if you also do a lot of work on your PC then 1440p would be very beneficial.

If you are looking to play on a high level go for the 144HZ. I played CS:GO on a really high level and it is impossible to compete without 144HZ. But if you are a casual gamer who appreciates his games. Then go for a 1440p monitor. You notice the difference, especially in games like Battlefield 1 and The Witcher. Your 1070 should be able to handle it all fine.

 

The BenQ BL2420PT would be a good cheap option.

Here's my two cents. You have more than enough GPU power to push 1440p @ 60Hz on max. Which means that you could easily push 1080p @ 144Hz. I personally would go with the 1440p @ 60Hz since you're not doing any serious FPS games.

1080p @ 144Hz

battlefield one, rainbow 6,

1440p @ 60Hz

rocket league, doom, the witcher, and fallout 4.

 

also if u dont have an i7 you will get a smoother experience with 1440p @ 60Hz.
