Which monitor for GTX 1060?

[grenade252]

I'm upgrading from a dying 290x to a EVGA GTX 1060 SSC or FTW when they come out, and neither of my monitors have an hdmi port, so I need to upgrade one. Which of these monitors should I go with? Or something else in the same price range? I play a lot of rust, also the forest, league, bf4, rocket league, and evolve. The rest of my build is I5-4690, 16 gb ram, 650 watt psu, asus h97 pro gamer mobo, samsung 250gb ssd, 1tb hdd. I used to get about 200 fps in bf4 on max settings, right now I'm getting 100 fps in rust on fast settings, I used to be able to get more fps on max settings but with my gpu dying that isn't happening. FPS in league usually stays around 300.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236627 144hz but it's refurbished, and a bit more than I want to spend but I will if it's worth it.

Get the VG248QE, it is definitely worth it. I love mine. But don't use it with an HDMI cable. Use Displayport or Dual Link DVI.

Be aware that none of those monitors include the G-Sync module. You can however use ToastyStrobelight on the VG248QE.

I would not consider a monitor w/o 144 Hz or better

What's the downside to using HDMI instead of DVI?

Yeah I know they don't have G-Sync. I started to look at ones that do, but they are too expensive for me.

HDMI cannot output at 144Hz like Displayport or Dual Link DVI.

Use the cable that comes w/ the monitor (DL-DVI) ... make sure the refurbished still has one

The lack of any reviews on reputable sites gives me great pause.
