Which monitor?

C4xy

 I've decided that i want to upgrade my monitor. These are the 3 im looking at (seen below) although im open to any other choices (under 300), i currently have a gtx 1060 but im planning on upgrading soon. The acer xf240yu looks good but people say that there's no point of 1440p at 23.8" vice versa people say that 1080p isn't good for 27" (acer kg271b). I can get them all for around the same price.

 I play a mix of competitive games and singleplayer games

 

-=-

asus vg248qe -  144hz  1080p  24" 

 

acer xf240yu - 144hz  1440p  23.8"

 

acer kg271b -  240hz 1080p 27"

thanks.

Go for Acer xf240yu because the extra resolution is better.

Are you talking about the 1440p 144hz one? If so i can't find a link to one in the the uk for some reason, if you are talking about the 1080p one see what dizmo said above

It's the 1440p one. That's strange for sure.
