Spec me a Freesync monitor

Hi Folks,

Looking to get a new monitor with Freesync, only other requirements are:
At least 27" and probably not really much (if any) bigger.
1080p or 1440p.
Decent freesync range.
Max budget about £250.
No ultrawidescreen, just bog standard 16:9

Suggestions?

Unfortunately, I think you're limited by your budget. Unless you're OK with ~48-72Hz Freesync range, and indeed, there are plenty of those. Though that surely isn't a "decent" range, instead more like a slap in the face.

Anyway, the closest you'll get with regards to the feature requirements, is probably the Acer Predator XZ271, which is almost £300, but also:
- 48-144Hz FreeSync range
- 27" VA panel (curved)
- 1920x1080 (16:9)
- still on pre-order, so can't get it immediately
