[SOLVED] Upgrading from 1080p 144hz 1ms display

[pocketdexter]

Hi,

Here are my build specs
CASE: HAF X
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
TIM: Noctua NT-H1
RAM: G. Skill DDR4 2x8Gb 3600
Mobo: MSI B450 Gaming Plus
GPU: RTX 2080
PSU: Corsair TX-M 750 80+ Gold
SSD: Sabrent 1TB M.2 2280 PCI-E 3.0
SSD cooler: Sabrent Rocket
HDD: WD 2TB Black
Optical: LG Blue Ray Burner
OS: Win 10 64 bit

I currently have a 24" 1080 144hz 1ms display from a few years ago. I wanted to know what would be a good upgrade? I enjoy high frame rates and I was looking into G-Sync. Is HDR worth it? I wanted something 27" or larger, but I have read sizes in the 27" at 1080p resolution looks bad. Should I bump it up to 2k? I play mostly platforming, fighting, puzzle, single player, 3rd party action and scarcely LOL. Some titles I have recently played are light such as guacamelee, ori and the will o the wisp, mega man collection, darksiders 1/2/3, Castlevania 1/2 Lords of Shadow, Guilty Gear Xrd, Sonic franchise games, Devil May Cry, Dynasty Warriors, Final Fantasy, Minecraft, among other titles. I do not have a budget in mind.

2k 144hz g sync compatible should be fine. HDR, I'm not very particular about it, but it should look better definitely

I am doing more shopping around since Black Friday and Cyber Monday are approaching. Is Monoprice and Westinghouse brands reputable vendors? One more thing. My monitor model is AOC G2460P.

I have narrowed it down to these 3

I have no idea, I'm not from the US

Not true. 27" 1080p screen is perfectly fine.

Should I bump it up to 2k?

For 2k resolution, i'd suggest looking into 32"or 34" monitors.
