Monitor help
I can't decide which is the better choice between 24" FHD or 27" QHD.

My incoming PC (parts): Ryzen 5 9600X, Hellhound RX 9060 XT 16GB, 32GB RAM, 2TB SSD. Usage is for average day to day stuff, watching videos/shows, do a bit of admin work, play some games, edit simple video highlights or pictures montage. Budget is ~USD$190, idealy USD$150.

If it is 27" QHD, I have shortlisted that are available in my area: MSI MAG 275QF KTC H27T22C Philips 27E1N2500A Prism+ W270. I have not done any yet for 24"

Thanks.

Get a cheap 27" 1440p 160 Hz+ IPS monitor. Not much point using 1080p anymore and 24" is too small for 1440p.

That was my initial thinking. However when I saw the performance of my CPU GPU on Youtube, it feels like struggling to run a few certain 2025 games with smooth 70 default ultra setting on 1440p. IDK if it is that person test rig problem or the game itself is not fully optimize or something else. So I'm keeping 24" FHD open. In addition, that is just a small reason, the main reason is still the price.

This is USD$260 in my area, not $180. Even if I were to purchase from Amazon, it would cost me USD$70 to ship to me. My area don't run huge discount like Amazon does. Even on Black Friday, it is only USD$5 cheaper. Of course, I'm always open to monitor model suggestion.

Those few certain 2025 games make RTX 5090 stutter because of the garbage UE5 engine and complete laziness of developers to optimize these days.
