COD monitor

I currently have the following set up (purchased here):

AMD R7 3700X
RTX 2070 SUPER
Giga 750W 80 Plus Gold
Giga X570 Gaming X
Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB
2 x Benq PD3200Q

I have recently got into Cod during lockdown and would like to get a monitor more suited to FPS, where as I primarily went for strategy gaming before. Presumably I should be looking at something at 1440p and higher refresh rates? Budget is up to £500.

Thank you for the suggestions guys. Off the back of some reviews, I ordered the LG 27GL850 which arrived yesterday.

I have noticed that COD is struggling to go over 100 FPS in game, which I find odd given the new monitor. It is set to 144hz and graphics options are set at well below the performance threshold. I have tried changing the priority to 'Normal' in task manager and GPU drivers are up to date so I'm not really sure what is holding it back. My rig should be able to handle more than 100 FPS should it not?

Modern Warfare, primarily Warzone.

Thank you @chroniclard I think I do have a mix so may explain. I have to admit I did not realise that a fairly new build would leave me behind the curve so much. I realised the GPU was not top spec but to run it at reasonable settings and only achieve that FPS is fairly disappointing.
