Hi everyone,

I've been using an AOC u3477pqu for some time and was wondering if it's worth upgrading to something with a higher refresh rate? Looking ideally for an IPS panel with good colours. Please note, I don't play a lot of online games, so it's mostly single player. Given my old monitor is 60Hz without FreeSync, I presume it would be worth spending the money?
 
Yes, high refresh rate, g-sync/freesync monitors, are one of the best bang for buck upgrades you can do at the moment IMHO.

These LG have got a pre-order offer on at the moment (should be here in 2 or 3 weeks), but if too rich for your blood then check out any of the below:
