If we were to recommend an all-around display from this list for you to use, it would be the Acer Predator XB271HU. Not only is it great for gaming, but also for general computing too. The XB271HU from Acer has a 1440p IPS display with NVIDIA G-Sync technology, a refresh rate of 144Hz allowing you to game at high frame rates, and a 4ms response time for fast-paced action.
