Need some advice on a 1440p monitor for Xbox Series X

I had been toying with upgrading my computer for a few months but when the chance to get a Series X came up for £240 used, I thought it was too good a deal to miss. I only play Warzone DMZ, currently on a 24 inch 60Hz monitor. The game looks good on that but I'd really like to upgrade to a 1440p and essentially reinvent my gaming for a fairly low cost. I have a couple of monitors on my short list - the Gigabyte G27QC, Dell S2722 and the HP X27q. However, I am just concerned that I may be buying more than I need for the Series X since none of these support HDMI 2.1. I know there are lots of 75Hz QHD monitors but I was thinking of getting one with a higher refresh rate in the event I do upgrade my PC at some point in the future.

Can anyone give me any recommendations or advice? Any reviews I have come across for Xbox monitors seem to be at the higher end. I am looking for a 27-inch panel and have a max budget of £275.

Thanks.

Gigabyte G32QC Ive been using one with my series X for two years and it's been perfect, I'm selling it in the MM at the moment so I can upgrade to an OLED TV, it's 32" but if you can make room it's well worth it

If not rtings are a trusted site which have monitor recommendations for series x
 
Thanks Relentless. I'll take a look although the 27 would be a better fit for my desk/office set up. I'm definitely leaning towards Gigabyte.
