I recently built my first pc but I have a 1080p 75hz monitor so I want to upgrade to a 1440p 144+hz monitor. I don’t want to spend a lot though so I have been eyeing the ViewSonic 27in QHD 180hz IPS monitor (VX2728-2K-180) but there aren’t many reviews on it. Does anybody own this monitor or can give suggestions for better ones ($330 max preferably).
Thank you
Oh yeah, forgot to mention I have a 4070 in the build. Is that enough for 1440p?
eh?
I'm at the moment using an 8 year old PC with Intel® HD Graphics 4600 . Handles 1440p just fine. No tearing.
30Hz is plenty for video, but you want 60Hz for desktop GUI.
Maybe he meant at 144hz
OK, sorry, I just noticed his handle. Perhaps a super-human frame-rate will help him at video games.
Questioning gamers is like asking audiophiles if they really need 144 kHz sampling :)
So this old PC handles AAA games at 1440p perfectly fine then?!?
HINT: There is a difference between DISPLAYING 1440p content and GAMING at 1440p …
The OPs 4070 will not play AAA games at 1440p @ 144Hz … hence the GPU upgrade comment ;)
OP said nothing about playing games. Nor did you. So I assumed he had some more important purpose in mind ;-)

AOC Q27G2S/EU 27" QHD IPS 2K 165Hz Adaptive Sync Gaming Monitor = $318
I have 155 Hz previous version of this, works well with G-Sync on DP. Mine specifically says G-Sync monitor in the box but looks like the new version mentions as VRR adaptive sync.

BTW, your Viewsonic VX2728-2K 180Hz monitor is cheaper at $279 and could be better than this.

You can sometimes get ultra wide curved ones ons ale with 1440 vertical pixels. That would be the sweet spot imo, the biggest you can afford.
Xiaomi Mi 34" 144Hz 2K WQHD for <$500 is a pretty solid option.
Hey mate, I bought this one not too long ago and its a great budget option. I'm very happy with it and the 3440x1440 is amazing for gaming and productivity work

Don't forget you will need a better GPU to drive 1440p monitors :/
