Well-rounded 1440p/144hz monitor?

    Looking to move up to 1440p/144hz to fully utilise my new Ryzen 3600/5700xt build. I know I won't be hitting 144fps in AAA games, but I still find the difference between 60hz and 144hz very significant. I don't know much about the tradeoffs between different types of monitors really, and a natural corollary of that is that I'm not particularly inclined one way or the other (whether it be deep blacks or vibrant colours or whatever - I really don't have a clue haha). That being said, are there any well-rounded monitors of this type? And what kind of price would I expect to pay for a decent-quality one? Thanks in advance.

    I have the lg 27gl850. Did a good bit of research through reviews and reddit before buying it six months ago, lots of very positive stuff. From what I gather looking around recently when I was considering a second monitor, it's still a very good choice. I'm not sure on price point at the moment though.

    Dell S3220DGF is also worth considering, if you wanted 31.5" @ 1440p. Same PPI as 24" @ 1080p. Seems to be cheapest direct from Dell.ie.

    I went the other way and got the monitor first to improve remote working, and only recently upgraded gaming PC to 3900 & 5700 XT to take full advantage.
