Hello Everyone,
I have been looking into new monitors lately given I am looking to upgrade my systems GPU from my current HD 7850 to a GTX 1070. My current monitors are listed below that I have mounted to a Vesa mount that will support up to a 34" display. Overkill for my current but I figured I might as well get a decent mount to meet any needs in the future. I use the system for gaming, everyday browsing and current some content creation with photo editing.
Current Monitors:
Main Panel: Asus VG248QE
24", 1080p, 144Hz
2nd Panel: Asus VE248H
24", 1080p, 60Hz
Games Played:
- Diablo 3
- Overwatch
- League of Legends
- Starcraft 2
- Battlefield 1
- Other various AAA titles
I was looking to potentially jump to 1440P since the GTX 1070 will be capable of it. But then I started looking at various 21:9 monitors and am torn between looking at a 1080p 21:9 format monitor like an Acer Z35 with a higher refresh rate. Or just spending the extra bit and looking into a Acer X34 or models like it. I would use this monitor to replace the VE248H and use it as my main panel while my VG248QE could be a 2nd panel. Or is there any other panels worth potentially waiting for that might be coming out that I am not aware of?
The only thing I am certain of is that I don't want to go back to a 60Hz panel.
