Question Opinions on these 2 monitors?

[waffl212]

Hey everyone. I'm planning on getting an upgrade from my 75hz monitor to a 144hz one and i found 2 seemingly good prices.
Anyhow, first off my specs, I currently have;

Ryzen 3 2200g and i'm using the onboard graphics
16gb ram ddr4

I found an Acer kg251q for $175
or
ASUS VG248QE for $125

Are any of these good, and fairly priced? Thanks.

You sure onboard graphics can do 1080p144?

From what i've gathered, the Vega 8 is capable.

125 dollars is a great deal for 1080p144
Ive seen 1080p60 monitors sell for that amount

Any opinions on the brands though? Or does it not matter that much and is more on the specs.

Acer and asus are both great brands which produce quality products.
I cant confirm this personally, but I have heard stories of subpar customer service from asus.
Honestly, I would get the Asus monitor though. The change in brand is not worth a 40% increase in price
