ROG Strix XG27AQDPG (27-inch , 2560 x 1440, QHD-OLED, 500Hz) ($769.99)

ZOWIE XL2566X+ (24-inch, 1920 x 1080, Fast TN Panel, 400Hz, DyAc 2) ($649.99)

My PC specs are:
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070TI
AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
32GB DDR5 6000MHz

I average from around 400-600fps in Valorant

Which monitor should I get? Money isn't really a concern

24 inch is generally better than 27 inch for competitive

Yeah, I've used the ROG Strix XG27AQDPG at a friends house and really liked the OLED and how smooth it felt, but I hated the 1440p/27 inch because everything felt so small in Valorant if that makes sense.

I'm definitely not an expert but it probably depends on if you think you'll feel a difference between 400 and 500hz and if you care about graphics

Yeah I used to have the 240hz Zowie and I liked it a lot, leaning towards getting the 400hz one

If money isn’t a concern aren’t zowie monitors esports rated. I’d get that. Also do they have 540Hz?

They have 600hz for $999, I would consider it but I rarely am consistently at 600+ fps so idk if it would be worth it

600hz not worth it. I have the same PC specs and 1% lows of our pc doesn’t deliver frames over 600 so it’s better to stick with a monitor with less refresh rate than that.

Even if you could consistently get 600fos is 600hz even worth it
It sounds placebo to me ngl
