Which would you prefer?


I currently have 2 monitors: an LG 4K w/60hz refresh rate, and an old 1080p monitor that is DVI out only. I want to replace the 2nd monitor, but I don't want to spend $700 CAD ($500 USD) on one. 1080p is still the predominant screen size to play at, but for how long? I'm looking at now and 5 years into the future.

1080p isn't going anywhere anytime soon. That said, most people don't recommend 1080p on monitors larger than 24 or 28 inches. I assume the 144Hz panel is a TN panel. That's something else I would consider. I don't game enough to want to settle for a TN panel. Also I'm not sure about having one panel that's 60Hz and another that's 144Hz. Even if that doesn't drive Windows bonkers, I would think it would be pretty jarring in everyday use.

RTX 2060. I'm sub-100FPS on high/ultra on GTAV at 1440p, but am constantly above 100fps on everything else.

might be. the product names for all these things get messed with

144hz is middling now. 240hz-360hz are the high end. I would say find one that is around 300-400 1440p 144hz. As for VA panels. Probably not a good idea unless you are getting a Samsung G5, G7, or G9. Other VA panels have black smearing.

Apparently the screen in this one reviews quite well.
