My son is desperate for a new monitor. At the moment he has a 1920x1080 old Dell running at 60Hz (the max it will do) input lag seems OK.

he plays a lot of fortnite and is asking for a better monitor. His PC is capable of running his games at 120fps plus as he's running my old 1070 in it.

I tend to play games like world of tanks, AC Odyssey etc where fps/refresh is not so much of an issue.

So, how much difference does monitor refresh really make to FPS gameplay?

Will he have a night and day experience with a gaming monitor?
 
I'm guessing a gsync/compatible monitor is a good idea as well.....

Are the gsync compatible freesync monitors a good option?
 
Great advice thanks...

Any advice on the best monitors?

Spec seems to be 144Hz freesync *with* Gsync Compatibility due to 1070GPU. 27" or 24"

Don't want to spend more than required so not bear that in mind :-)

Cheers...
