[SOLVED] 144-165hz monitor

[Ryan_B]

I am in the market for a monitor that is at least 144hz, but no more than 165hz, as anything more than that is not applicable for my usage. I also am looking for a 27 inch display, with g-sync. My price range is $300-500, but I am hoping to not get that high.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Does it have to be G-SYNC? There are perfectly fine FreeSync monitors that will work with the latest Nvidia cards.

Yes, FreeSync would be fine. I wasn't aware until now that Nvidia cards can support FreeSync displays.

Okay, there are many more options with FreeSync; however, do be aware that some (usually cheap) FreeSync monitors will not work with Nvidia cards.

First, it's only GTX 10 series and newer Nvidia cards that will work with most FreeSync monitors.

I would prefer one of these because they all are IPS, which has better color display. You didn't mention what resolution, so I included both 1080p and 1440p.

Thanks man! I'll be sure to check some of these out. And to clarify, I am looking for a monitor with a resolution of 1440p.

I chose those because they were IPS, which provides a better color display than TN panels.
