Earlier today, we covered the Acer Nitro XV2 1440p 300Hz IPS monitor, which is an excellent deal at just around $300. If, however, you are looking for something better and are willing to spend more, then Samsung has Odyssey G6 1440p 500Hz QD-OLED (the world"s first) for just over $600, which is nearly $300 less than its MSRP (purchase link under the specs table down below).
Compared to the Nitro XV2, you are obviously going to get much better picture quality on the Odyssey G6 due to it being QD-OLED and also the significantly higher color gamut coverage and accuracy. And it is very fast too, with its 500 Hz refresh rate rating and 0.03ms(GTG) response times. The monitor also supports AMD FreeSync Premium Pro, and that means features like LFC (low framerate compensation) will be there to aid in case your framerate falls below the adaptive sync range. Overall, it seems like a great product for the price.
