I just ordered the Asus PG278QR for delivery tomorrow. Hoping the 144hz hype is right.

So far I am very impressed. The difference playing PUBG is like night & day. So smooth tracking and panning but just overall gameplay is far more fluid. It's so good it feels unfair compared to 60hz.

Imagine what the 240hz boys feel like!!
I am assuming not a lot different with the law of diminishing returns and also being able to even hit 240fps. Mine overclocks to 165 so may give it a crack at some point out of curiosity. Guess I would also have to disable the PUBG cap of 144.
Makes me laugh that we have gone full circle as remember my old Iiyama CRT ran at 90hz over 20 years ago.
IPS would always get my vote, I'm on my second IPS monitor and would never go back to TN. Currently have a Asus MG279Q, which I have had just over a year now and love it. I find it great for the games I play Battlefront 2, Vermintide and the IL-2 Sturmovik BOX flight sims.
When I was looking for a new monitor, the things I wanted it to have in order was. 1440p, 27", IPS, 144MHz, G-Sync/FreeSync. I didn't get the G-Sync version as I was not willing to pay over £100 for the option.
