For your budget I'd get this.

PCPartPicker Part List
Monitor: LG 29WK600-W 29.0" 2560x1080 75 Hz Monitor ($226.99 @ Adorama)
Total: $226.99
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available

I own the 34" version of it and love it for gaming. IPS is vibrant and 75hz keeps everything smooth. Also Freesync should work fine with it as long as you use a DisplayPort cable and follow the directions below.

Edit: The two 60hz ones I see that fall within your budget are 25" but I'd avoid those as vertically they are going to be really short...

Thanks! I'll probably go for that one!
