Cross-posting from what I said in #threadkiller this morning (The 10,000 Best Forum Posts on the Internet Right Now!):
The Asus VG248QE seems to be out of stock everywhere, but the new challenger to the crown of cheapest 1080p 144Hz monitor is AOC. I treated myself to the AOC 24G2 (from Wootware) and it got delivered yesterday. Love it so far!
At the start of last year I first experienced 144Hz on our Lenovo Legion Y540 laptop screens and I could not go back to using my old desk monitor as my primary gaming display. So my Samsung T240 became my secondary screen while my laptop’s 15" 144Hz monitor became my primary display. Totally backwards!
In hindsight, I should have maybe gone for a 27" monitor, but they are just so much more expensive!
