Two different monitors or not

So i made a post about my current build and what i was looking at/for, in that post i had the Asus vg278q. It costs $300 and is 27" 144hz.

I was thinking of getting a second 27" monitor to go on my stand of the same size but not spend the same amount of money for 144hz.

Would going with a 60hz or 75hz monitor like

Would doing something like this be fine or would it be better to spend the extra money for a 27" 144hz

I was planing on Gaming with one monitor and using the other for multi tasking and more space. The 144hz would be on the right closest to my bed so that i could also watch video on it. 

 

I have a 24 in benq but not having the same size would make the setup look wierd that is why im asking if 2 144hz monitors or 1 and a 60hz

If that is your only application for the second monitor and you are sure you're not going to use the second one for gaming, then there is indeed no reason to buy a second Asus VG278Q.

Mind you that you're going to have 2 different looking monitros standing next to each other though
