Kinda hit a dead end with my monitor so looking for advice on upgrade

I've been using a Qnix QX2710 Korean monitor. Probably well known on this forum, it's a 27" Samsung PLS panel monitor, 1440p and mine overclocks to 120hz. DVI only.

GPU is Palit GameRock 1080. I was thinking about upgrading my GPU but seeing as all the potential GPU Upgrades don't have a DVI out, I'm kinda stuck. I was looking at 2080ti and 2080 cards btw.

So now I'm thinking about getting a new monitor.

Specs I'm looking for in this new monitor:
27" or above (not sure if I want to go larger due to PPI)
1440p (not interested in 4k)
IPS (maybe VA)
144hz or above
Gsync would be big plus
Display Port

Now, I know about 3 monitors I could buy right now and have all of the above for under £700. These are the Viewsonic XG2703-GS, Acer XB271HU and Asus PG279Q.

What I'm wondering about is, would there be anything out there for less money? And perhaps more importantly, maybe wait to see what happens with the whole Gsync vs adaptive sync situation?

Thanks.
