Looking for a 144hz 1ms display. I have a budget of 200$ to 300$. I think I have already looked at quite a few, but I still don't know if there are more out there for me to look at. TN displays are preferable, because I heard that they're the fastest for displays.

Here are some I've already looked at:

If your going to go 1080P/144hz and with that budget I'd go for a VA or IPS panel as it will give you better colors over TN and also make sure it's Freesync with DisplayPort so even if you have a Nvidia GPU you can still utilize Freesync.

I would of gone with a monitor like that, but I heard that ghosting was a problem.
