Currently I have a 1080p, 60hz monitor that is hooked up to my premise pc that I’m upgrading soon (building my own)

My new pc will have a GeForce GTX 1060 and I’m trying to decide if a 1440p, 144hz monitor is worth the price tag.. or should I get a 1440p, 75hz monitor, etc..
I’m really into the 27 inch display as well

So my solutions:

Get a 1440p, 144hz, 27” monitor
Get a 1440p, 75hz, 27” monitor
Or a 1080p, 144hz, 27” monitor

Getting the higher quality monitor would be stretching my budget a little too thin for my liking but if it is worth the price tag than I may buy it.
Also any links to good monitors within my price range (around $400 max) would be awesome and also your input on which I should buy

Thanks

Depends on the games you play. But a 1440p monitor with a 1060 is going to be meh, Especially with 144hz.

Well the user is very tight on money and cannot afford anything more than a 1060. The games he is playing will run at 400 fps in 1440 with a 1060.

You want to point to me where he listed the games he's playing?
