Need Help Deciding Between 2 Displays

[SlipperyPete]

I am upgrading my display this summer in the next few weeks, followed by a large PC upgrade. I am prepared to spend money, but i am spending a lot so I would like to save where possible.

 

Essentially the two displays I want are:

1. (393$) Dell Gaming Monitor S2417DG YNY1D 

- 1440p

- 165hz

- G-Sync

- 3 year warranty

2. (299$) AOC AGON AG241QX 23.8” Gaming Monitor

- 1440p

- 144hz

- FreeSync

- 1 year warranty

 

I have an Nvidia GPU and plan on sticking with it for the foreseeable future. I am wondering if it is worth the extra money, given that I am looking to save money where I can. I am not opposed to spending the extra, just want to make sure it would be worth.

That dell monitor is great; in fact I'm typing this on it right now. Great pixel density, and g-sync is awesome

if Gsync is important to you get the gsync one. BUT also note the AOC as better contrast but the stand is inferior. ALSO note the 3 year warranty on the dell

save $7 here

 

EDIT the AOC also has speakers

G-Sync is a major advantage and I'd pay those additional $100 for it.

And the 3 year warranty is nice to have too!
