    Default Advice on new 144 hz Gaming monitor

    Hi guys.

    Looking to buy a new monitor. Looking at the 144hz ones preferably one with amd free sync and not g sync as I have an amd card, looking at the 2560x1440 resolution.

    Looking to spend 12k at most, preferably less.

    Anyone have any recommendations.

    I've owned both of these, loved them both and still own the BenQ.

    The Acer offers unbelievable value for money and is as good as the BenQ, with that said the BenQ does offer more bells and whistles and a fully adjustable stand (Which I love).

    The BenQ also has some extra settings but yeah for the money spent the Acer is definitely the better buy.

    Thx for the advice as always Joker. Yes for that can't justify spending R5k more on the benq.
