knowledge2121 · Oct 2, 2016

I have three in mind :

https://www.amazon.com/Acer-GN276HL-bid-27-inch-Display/dp/B01DHTWWTM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1475382918&sr=8-2&keywords=27%2B1080%2B144&th=1

https://www.amazon.com/VG278HV-1920x1080-144Hz-Gaming-Monitor/dp/B01DDR0FE2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1475382918&sr=8-1&keywords=27+1080+144

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00GWFNMJS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&psc=1

Which one Should I buy and why ... do you have any other monitor in mind that has these specs....

Many thanks

I'd recommend dropping the size down to 24 inches. Once you get up to 27 inches, the pixel density on 1080p displays starts to get low and things can start to look blocky as it becomes possible to easily discern individual pixels unless you sitting rather far back from the display. If you really want 27 inches, I'd recommend bumping the resolution up to 1440p, though 144Hz 1440p monitors are extremely pricey right now.

but out of those monitors which one do you recommend..I am ok with low pixel density...

All of them lack DisplayPort and only have HDMI 1.4 support which is a potential problem as it means you have to connect with Dual Link DVI to get 144Hz, and DVI is on its way out, you may find it missing on future graphics cards. Out of all of them, you might as well get the Acer as it is a lot cheaper than the others. The others really don't have any features going for them that would make them worth an extra $200, not unless you want an adjustable height really, really badly.

Something like this would do the trick right

Adapters tend not to work so great when it comes to high resolutions or refresh rates, the adapter you linked only supports up to 1080p, which indicates it doesn't provide much bandwidth and likely caps out at 60Hz. Dual Link DVI is okay for the moment, as most graphics cards are still shipping with one DVI port, but it is a potential problem you might face down the road if you want to upgrade your GPU in the future or if you want to run two of those monitors at 144Hz.

how about this monitor

https://www.amazon.com/AOC-G2770PQU-Ultimate-Performance-Professional/dp/B00L8LTB3W/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1475428464&sr=8-8&keywords=27%2B144hz%2B1080%2Bdisplayport&th=1

it has displayport, and the specs match my needs, however, how does this monitor`s picture quality compare with the ones in my first post...would you recommend this one

Reviews seem to indicate that its default colours and brightness isn't very good but good results for a TN panel are achievable by messing around with the settings. You can read more here if you want some more in-depth detail on that particular monitor.

Now that I look at things again, the BENQ Monitor in my first post has a DisplayPort. I am going for that one.
