This perhaps?

I'm pretty sure the acer is outta your budget tho...

 

Alternatively you might want to consider the Dell S2417DG (1440p 165 hz g sync, usually under £400).

 

Also, why an 1800x when 1700 overclocks just as well? You could take the money saved and put it into the monitor instead.

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

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.

GPU - MSI 980 Ti 

Mobo - MSI Z97 Gaming 5

Are you planning on a gpu upgrade in the next few months or no?
