Hello everyone, I'm in a little bit of a situation here and looking for some advice.

I currently own a PS4 Pro & a high end gaming PC. I am planning on purchasing the Xbox One X also around the release date. I was planning on buying a 4k monitor specifically the one linked below.

The problem is it's only 60hz and people said since my monitor is 1080p 60hz I wouldn't really benefit much of a difference. Does anyone have any advice or monitors they could suggest to get the best out of my gaming experience?

Here is a 144Hz Gaming Monitor that is also 4K and not much more than the one you have listed.

My bad i didn't even realise i had a good look around tho and it seems from what i've seen is that the Acer Predator X27 is the only monitor around right now with 4K 144hz i could be wrong again tho. But its the same thing you are looking for.

There are no 4k 144Hz monitors available yet AFAIK and the ones on the way have been delayed until 2018. You won't benefit with a high refresh rate monitor on consoles anyway. We'd need to know your CPU and GPU to suggest a fitting monitor. We also need to know your budget and currency.

Adding onto this real quick, Acer and I believe ASUS are the ones making the 4k monitors at 144Hz. I don't think ASUS gave a price, but I believe Acer priced theirs around $2,000 for the monitor. Anyone on budget shouldn't even think about buying a 4k monitor at 144 Hz when we're not there yet with GPUs to run 4k games at 144Hz flawlessly - let alone just barely getting there with 4k 60Hz now. 1080 Ti is a great start, but I don't think we'll be perfected yet until Volta, unless Pascal has plans to one-up the 1080 Ti with a different card.

Man my 1080 FE is just barely running BF1 and other new games at 120fps @ 1080p, stock clocks on max setts...
I have a 24" BenQ XL2420T I got used in mint shape for $250CAD (like 170eur).
I am amazed by it, I cant imagine 4k @ 144hz.
But that price tho....
