144 vs 240

[Carnage1]

I’m currently living in Australia and I need a display for my new build but I wanted to know do I go 144hz or 240hz

 

i play a lot of shooter games

Unless you're super competitive 144Hz will probably be more than good enough.  If you're making a super OP build then maybe go for 1440P 144Hz with G-Sync, I'd consider that the best you can get right now and is priced similarly to a 1080P 240Hz monitor.

Alright, I’m getting two monitor, should I leave the second one as a 1080p 60hz or go both the same

What kind of shooter games? While I haven't tested a 240Hz screen, I do have a 144Hz monitor, and I have tried limiting it to 120, 85, 60 etc. Basically anything above 60Hz felt smooth, and while 144 felt smoother than 120, it may just have been a sort of mind trick affecting my judgement. I doubt 240Hz makes sense unless you only play compitetive shooters.

What sort of glue I need to get 144hz

Very few people can tell the difference between 144hz and 240hz with complete accuracy.

144Hz better balance really. 240Hz for those that are very competitive and only care for top performance regardless of resolution and panel type.

Guessing you mean GPU. Depends on the game, but a 1070 or 1080 will do the trick.

We need the resolution, your budget, and (just to make sure it can run it) your PC build.

 I really don’t want to spend more than 4-5 hundred on it

also it only needs to be 1080p
