Here I am with a GTX 970, i7-860 (@ 3.8ghz with HT on) and a 23" 1080p LG monitor.
I would love to upgrade to a 1440p monitor to experience what all the fuss is about.
I'm quite happy with the 1080p but am rather intrigued by the idea of a 25-27" screen.
Is my GTX 970 sufficient enough for 1440p gaming?
i.e. Witcher 3, Dark Souls 3, Fallout 4, Battlefield 4, Metro Last Light - redux.
Here's the kicker, I'm looking at this monitor: (I'm in Ontario, Canada)

Yet, do I need to be concerned about a 144hz monitor, Gsync,Freesync etc. or is 60hz enough on a 27" screen for games, with the GTX 970?
Essentially, I'd like to know what 'gaming' (priority use) 1440p monitor makes sense. Then I could get an idea of what price range I'm getting into. Since there would be no point in getting one if I'm giving up on something in the gaming realm of things.
