Looking to buy a monitor (big dialema) :(

[D3monw3st]

Hello everyone,

My current GPU is a gtx 1080. I'm looking to play games like CS:GO, Fortnite, and PubG (I know this game is a bit of an outlier, don't play it often). I play a lot of CS:GO, so a high Hz monitor would be good. |

I was looking to get a 1440p 144hz monitor. 

My current monitor is a Samsung 27 inch 1080p @ 60hz.

Would prefer an IPS panel. 

Thank you!

what's your budget?

I found this monitor for $279: https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-27UD59-B-4k-uhd-led-monitor . How does this look? Unfortunately this is only 60hz, so are there any monitors that you guys know of? 

Also, @huilun02 if you know certain monitors, like I found a acer monitor on amzn that is $250 1440p @ 144hz.

Don't know about that $250 one

This is the best I could find for 1440p 144Hz under $300

You definitely won't find a legit 1440p + 144Hz + IPS display at $300 brand new

Ah okay, I see. Here's the monitor that I found on AMZN: https://www.amazon.com/Acer-K272HUL-Dbmidpx-2560x1440-UM-HX2AA-D03/dp/B01INVZTG2/ .

Ah weird, it says 144hz?

Dang, that's actually misleading b/c the stats that they posted say it's 144hz...
