1080p 144 hz with freesync (but $10 over budget):

Depending on if you are a stickler for colors or refresh rate and whether or not freesync is important to you I'd get one of these.

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

You can buy TN panels a lot cheaper than IPS ones; they have much faster response times, so they are better for fast paced shooter games.

Their downside is that TN panels have poor viewing angles, and display colours using a 6-bit process (IPS use 8-bit processing) meaning they lack for professional use that full-colour representation.

For example the Asus VS248H-P < https://pcpartpicker.com/product/yjrG3C/asus-monitor-vs248hp> from $124.00.

Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves (Abraham Lincoln,1808-1865; 16th US president).
