Hi guys,
I've not had a new monitor for years, been using my trusty Samsung syncmaster 60hz LCD since I started PC gaming. I'm looking to upgrade (24" really I think).
The thing is, what do i go for? All the freesync monitors are too big and I'm not sure I'd be able to hold a steady 120/144fps for the higher hz monitors to be useful(?). Running an i5 2500k @ 4ghz and a stock r9 290.
Looking to spend no more than £300 but less is better really. Would also look at second hand from MM if people could throw some recommendations.
Edit- for gaming, don't play very competitively. Play a range of games too from fps to mobas and 3rd person shooters.
Thanks for any help
