1080p 144hz, 1440p 60hz or 1440p 144hz but freesync with 1070

[farzmonkey]

I am building a new PC in the next month and Im looking to upgrade my monitor from an old 1080p 60hz samsung monitor to two 27" monitors however I cant decide what I should go for specs wise with the ROG STRIX-GTX1070. I mostly play League of Legends but I also play things like rainbow six, bf4 etc.

I am looking at either for 1080p 144hz:
ViewSonic XG2701
AOC G2770PF
BenQ XL2720T

For 1440p 60hz:
Dell U2715H

or 1440p 144hz but with free sync because the g-sync version is WAY too expensive even though Im getting a 1070:
Asus MG278Q
AOC AG271QX

So basically what im asking is should i just go with a cheaper option such as the AOC G2770PF or BenQ while still having 144hz or is it ok just to go with a 1440p 144hz monitor that supports freesync even though ill be using an invidia graphics card. Any other suggestions are also welcome and can a 1070 reliably support 1440p 144hz? I am in Australia aswell so some US models are hard to get here or are really expensive considering I can spend around $650-$700 AUD tops.

Thanks in advance

Depends on your gaming style. If primarily fast action, first person type shooters etc then a 1080p /144Hz will get the fastest refresh and highest fps. If your preference is slower strategy games like skyrim or Civ etc, then a 1440p /60Hz is good for those huge detail shots.

Freesync is next to useless with nvidia cards, it's AMD's version of G-Sync, which is nvidia optimized. So spending extra to get something you can't use is not a good thing.

I was saying about free sync because there are a few free sync monitors that i know wont work give the free sync or g sync support but have the 1440p 144hz specs and are cheaper to get with free sync than the g sync version and is it worth getting it with free sync even if i can use it just so i have the 1440p and 144hz benefits.

No reason for anything other than 1080p 144hz. If you go with 1440p 144hz you'll probably have to upgrade again in a couple years since the big AAA games these days like to be unoptimized. But ya know if you don't care about a nice smooth screen then 60hz 1440p will be fine for now.
