Looking for suggestions on a new monitor

Technomancer__

All my setup is listed on my profile

 

So my monitor is pure shit (650:1 contrast ratio)

I have a 1070 and I also heard that high refresh rate is a must

So am looking for a 1440p 100 - 120htz from Amazon.co.uk

My budget is about 200 - 400.

 

Btw I will upgrade to a R7 2700 or whatever the name will be at summer and I will oc it with noctua nd15

Contrast ratio and response time are both unusable metrics.

@Ethocreeper It's $445 for the UK, but it's worth the extra few bucks for Dell's stellar panel and sweet 165Hz (though I'd need three before I have my way with them wink wink nudge nudge).
