This might be a bit better than the previous 1080p monitors you linked https://www.pccasegear.com/products/36624/aoc-agon-ag322fcx-31-5in-freesync-curved-gaming-monitor currently out of stock at pccasegear though

What do you notice with 144 Hz? Is it just that much more of a solid image?

Fluidity, smoothness. A few years ago I had a 1080p 120hz, while upgrading to 1440p I chose 60hz because I thought it wouldn't be an issue but it it felt like a slide show in comparison, I was used to 120hz. Some people may not notice it, if you're already 60hz it won't be an issue to stay at 60hz. Going backwards though... Aaand there is a reason why vr is 90hz minimum.

For fps shooters tuning your games to run at high frames that match the high refresh rate can help, if you look at frame times in msi afterburner you'll see they are smaller, as racers you'd all agree that even a millisecond advantage is enough to win, being able to use that advantage is another thing (for me lol)

Pixel response time, the lower the more "solid" the image, higher will be more ghosting. Good TN panels are 1ms response time, good IPS panels about 4ms. Some panels of various types can be as high as 15ms or more which can also be noticed by some people.

$300 with code PING20 https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com.au%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F332395171948
game code included which you could sell? https://www.144hzmonitors.com/reviews/lg-24gm79g-preview-freesync-full-hd-144hz-gaming-monitor/ ticks a few boxes and in a decent budget, anyway probably a bit better than what you could get at JB for the money

LG is only 24". Isn't part of your reason to upgrade to go to 27" ?

I'd rather go bigger and keep 60hz. You'll get more fov.

I have just been re-reading my November copy of PC&Tech Authority which featured a test of several 27inch monitors and they recommend
the Samsung CFG70 monitor.
