I'm looking for the best monitor to use with my EVGA 1060 SSC 6GB graphics card. 

I would like to get back into PC gaming, probably with games like CS:GO, Rocket League , Far Cry, Resident Evil, Dark Souls, Shooter games, probably some sports games.  I will also use it for web browsing, remoteing into servers and networks for work from time to time. I may do occasional video streaming from Plex, Netflix, Hulu.  

I'm assuming with that card it would best to stay at 1080p and go for 144hz with gsync or should I worry about gsync? 

I've been looking at the following monitors:

Benq XL2430
Asus PG248Q
AOC G2460PG
Acer XB241H
MSI G24C
Viewsonic XG2401
Samsung C24FG70
Asus MG248QR

Then I was looking at the Dell S2417DG for a 1440p monitor. 

The rest of the specs for my PC are:

Gigabyte X299 Gaming 3 Motherboard
Intel i7-7800x
16GB DDR4 2400 Ram

Thanks for your help!

I have an MSI G27C and it's awesome, it's basically the same as the G24C, only difference is that it's 27 inches instead of 24. If you are going to be playing about 2.5 ft or away from your monitor, you could get the 27 inch MSI monitor. If you are going to be closer, buy the 24 inch version. Though I have yet to meet a gamer that plays with the monitor closer than 2.5 ft away from their face.

If you do decide on the MSI Monitor though, spend a little bit more on the v2 model, so it would be G24C2 for the 24 inch, and G27C2 for the 27 inch model, as they eliminate some of the problems with the first virsion.
