1440p 60Hz or 1080p 144Hz on a 25" IPS monitor? NOT BOTH

>>57384411
I had the same decision to make and I ended up going with a 1080p 144hz acer for $188. I'm very happy with it. The high refresh rate is great in doom, wow, overwatch, redout. I was blown away by how superior the colors are compared to my 23" 1080p panel from 2011.

Not going to jump resolutions until I can do 4k. Few more generations.

I wouldn't buy 144hz IPS. They are overpriced as fuck.

Buy a decent 144hz Monitor with TN. It also has better respond time.

I have the Lg24Gm77 and it just werks

Yes, but that is that acer an IPS? I can't go back to TN.

Don't buy anything until DisplayPort 1.4 HDR monitors are standard

What about gsync/freesync/whatever? Is it a meme? Do you even want that at 144Hz?

This OP, shouldn't be so hard to live without a computer for a few years.

Human eye doesn't register difference beyond 25, exceptionally 30, Hz anyway.

What GPU have?

No - it's TN. I have it next to an older TN panel though and it's night and day. The new TN's are fine. Comparing it to a budget HP IPS 1080p60hz panel it looks the same.

Also the viewing angles are fine. For $188 it's great.

I just bought a PB258Q (1440p IPS) for $300. Bad buy? I currently have a 970 a VN247H-P (1080p TN) I don't play much vidya these days so I went for an IPS 1440p monitor under 27". Seems decent enough for light gaymen until I decide to upgrade vidya card and go for 144Hz in 2017/2018. Not sure what card to wait for though and if I should spend extra on a monitor with gsync/freesync.
