So I just got my CPU done and I want to get a decent budget monitor for casual gaming with great colours. I'm thinking will my rig be able to push 144hz or 1440p or better to stay at 60hz with 1080p to get the best quality.

CPU: Intel Core I5 4460
MOBO: ASrock B85M-HDS
RAM: GSKill NT 8GB DDR3 1600mhz
GPU: Gigabyte GTX950 Windforce OC 2GB DDR5
PSU: FSP HEXA+ 550W PSU
HDD: WD 1TB Caviar Blue HDD
SSD : Samsung EVO 850 160gb

Please help!

stay at 1080p 60fps for u...

Okay! thanks for the reply. Any IPS recommendation?

No chance your spec is able to handle 1440p 144Hz, GTX950 is not a high end card and if you are using it for triple A titles like MGS:V, GTA V, AC series etc. you will end up mostly at medium settings for 1080p to achieve 60 FPS. As for MOBA games, Dota 2, CS:GO then no problem to get > 100 FPS.

If your budget is below RM 500 for the monitor, go for AOC I2360SD IPS (RM 499). If budget is unlimited, there are plenty of good IPS panels out there, Dell U2414H, S2415H etc. Be sure to check the screen type you need, either glossy or matter etc.

Thanks! That cleared up alot! Looking at the Acer G247HYL. A little hard to find reviews on it tho.
