Hello! I am new here, so let me know if there are some rules I am not following properly. This is the very first time I am buying a monitor, so I am unsure of what exactly I am doing. I play video games in my free time and also am a high schooler who works a lot on my computer. I think I could benefit from an IPS monitor, but I also want it to be quite fast as I have started getting interested in fps games. I am thinking about the ASUS VG249QL3A. My computer has a screen that runs at 144hz (MSI Cyborg 15 A13V), but the g-sync, to my knowledge, should be able to prevent issues with screen-tearing and ghosting. I want a 24" monitor because I don't like having to look around the screen for what I need (in general, not just for gaming), and this was the size recommended from sources I researched. It may be 1080p, but from what I understand, the size of the monitor will make the pixel density very good, which apparently results in a nice resolution. Since it still is an IPS monitor, it should have a lot of color contrast needed for any work I do; however, I could not find any 3rd party testing sites to back up the claims (likely because I don't know where to look). I will link the monitor below, and any feedback is welcome!
