I really need some help picking out a monitor guys. I am a gamer and I use my computer A LOT just as an fyi. I currently have a 1080p asus vs series that im giving the wife so she can have a dual monitor setup.

I've got a gtx 980 and 4790k at 4.5ghz.

My thoughts are as follows. I can "upgrade" to an asus 144hz 1080p tn panel or I can upgrade to a 1440p panel or I can upgrade to a 1440p 120hz overclockable panel such as the catleaps etc.

I don't think im going with a 4k panel as my single gtx 980 won't be able to run a lot of games on max settings with it, sooo I don't know. I don't really have a budget but the 1,000 dollar rog swift 1440p 144hz panel is a no go lol.

Thoughts?

I've got a single ASUS VG248QE. Despite claims that "0MG Tn sux!1", it is fantastic. I came off of a finely tuned Sony FW900, so I'd like to think I have experience with excellent picture quality. It's a great monitor that I would highly recommend IF you enjoy high frame rate gaming. The only thing that would make it better is if it were G-Sync-compatible for games that the 980 can't push that high.
