Hey People, I already have a 60hz display, that i want to keep using next to another monitor, I've found a monitor :
ASUS ROG PG258Q
which i think is good for me.
I play cs:go, pubg,....
Can you guys please look if this is a good monitor, I've seen streamers use it and they are on pro levels.

Thanks guys :)
 
It's good, but most 144Hz panels provide better value IMO. If you are extremely competitive, then you could find use for such a monitor.

For the same price you could consider a higher resolution and a much better panel type (IPS/VA instead of TN), which would be the better option for anyone who isn't really strict on nothing but competitive gameplay.

For most people, you don't really want anything above 144Hz, as the price in difference starts being bigger than the actually perceivable difference. After 144Hz, we're talking marginal improvements in latency for much more money.
 
Hey thanks for the informative response, I really want to play on competitive levels and I’am getting higher than 244 fps and i have nvidia gpu so the g-sync is great. I think this monitor is great for me but I’ve just seen the monitor is like 2 years old isn’t there anything newer like this monitor?
Also I now have a 23,8 inch monitor and the asus one is 25 inch, I’am planning on using both monitors, would this be any problem the inch difference?
Also, would my specs be able to handle this? I have a:
16 gb ddr4
Gtx 1080
I5-8600k (not overclocked)

Thanks for the help man 😁
