One of my monitors is finally on the fritz, giving me an excuse to finally step into the world of higher refresh rate monitors. Do the usual bit of photo editing, play a few FPS games (nothing crazy or competitive, Overwatch and a tiny bit of Apex Legends is about the most of it).

As the title says, I'd like at least 144Hz and have a budget of around £300 max. I'd prioritise speed and performance/panel quality ghosting etc. over size and resolution (and colour accuracy behind the speed/performance). From the looks of it, my options are either 24" 1080p 144Hz+, 25" 1080p 144Hz+ or 27" 1440p 144Hz. Probably leaning towards one of the first 2, though I don't follow monitors, so not sure if one is for example basically a dead market and overshadowed by the other (25" looks this way when browsing the OC store?)

Cheers
 
I personally don't use less than 27 inch, but can understand why you're like this.

My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £501.24 (includes shipping: £12.30)

Currently top of my personal list for some time was the Acer Predator XB271HUA, but it's not widely available anymore. If I started over though, I think I'd get 32 inch. Bigger is intimidating, but you never want to go back.
