So I just ordered a new monitor, the Acer XB270H, and it is 27" 1080p 144hz G-Sync. Should be here in a week or so, got it for $350 refurbished, which is $250 less than msrp!
I've got a gtx 760 4gb card, which I know will run my games fine, but I wanna be able to max out my games and make good use of that 144hz. I play games like GTA V, Shadow of Mordor, CS:GO, Borderlands 2, Just Cause 2, etc. and would like to be able to run new games as the come out over the next year.
So, I've really got it down to three cards: 970, 980, or 980 Ti. I already got g-sync, so the R9 series is out of the picture. As far as price, I can afford all of them, but I would like to have some money left over.
I'd really like to buy the Asus 980 Ti Strix when it comes out, but do you guys think I would be wasting my money for 1080p 144hz? Would a 970 or 980 be a smarter buy?
Would love some personal experience - if you've got a 1080p 144hz display, what graphics card do you use? And which one, if any, do you wish you had?
Thanks
