Best cheap 144hz monitor?

[lavablade02]

I think I have narrowed it down to three options in my desired price range (isn't strict.) Which is the best of the three

i got GN246HL paid $116 for it from acer refurbished problem is can only hit 144hz with real DVI-DUAL link cable and doesn't have displayport on this monitor looks like they are removing DVI from new cards GTX 1080Ti founders edition doesn't come with DVI so i fear GTX 11 series won't have DVI anymore.

I like the look of that MSI one, it's curved and has slim bezels. I can't really find any differences between the three so the MSI one just slightly edged it, admittedly, even though it is the priciest option.

I only have a 1060

I also have the Acer GN whatever. I also have 2 Acer 60hz IPS panels for a triple screen setup,, and the GN's large bezels are quite annoying.

It also doesn't have very many color adjustment options so everything would have to be done on your PC. This isn't an issue unless you want to use something else with it. (I switch with my PS4)

Otherwise, the image quality and color reproduction are generally quite good, but being a TN panel any amount of movemt up/down/left/right will skew the colors, but that's going to apply to all the monitors since they all have TN. Just something to be aware of.

It does only have DVI-D, HDMI, and VGA. DVI-D required for 144hz (comes with the cable.) If your 1060 doesn't have DVI, I'm not sure if there's a 144hz DP to DVI adapter.

Does not have speakers, but does have an audio output. I'm assuming it doesn't have speakers because they expect you to be using DVI.

 

It does have a VESA mount though, so that's always a nice plus.

 

Amazon just showed this, which has very slim bezels.

Really kinda depends on what you want. The other two monitors you have include Freesync which does you no good.

Freesync would be nice for future GPUs if I decide to go to the red side

Why do they expect you to be using DVI? Why not DP or HDMI?

You want the pixio px277h - at 400$ its not cheap, but for the specs you are getting, its dirt cheap! The best per dollar performance your going to get. I spent weeks researching. My two px277 (they didn’t have hdr model yet) just arrived and they are baller!

It doesn't have DP, and HDMI only allows for 60hz. Why buy a 144hz monitor to just use 60hz?

I was just trying to list out the pros and cons of the monitor. Overall I'm fairly happy with it, but I've also never had the nicest monitors so...
