Hi there...i wish to buy a 1440p with 144Hz with Ips panel if possible <5ms response time in kolkata. If anyone from kolkata knows any local shop where i can get it then please suggest it cause there is no monitor with the specs i mentions in online India.

If you're ready to spend 50-70k, check ASUS model in primeabgb

I'm also looking for one.
Are there cheaper options available? My use case is non-gaming - just want a lot of screen space for programming.

Asus PB278Q or Samsung 4K monitor

If your use case is programming, the samsung monitor makes sense since you will get 4X the screenspace of a 1080p panel


For OP however, both of these monitors arent suitable, these do not offer 144hz refresh rate unfortunately

Oh that looks nice.
Still, 1440p seems to be the sweet spot for my workflow. I currently have 2 split panes on a screen and want to have 3 now.
A triple 1440p or a (dual 1440 + 1 1080p) is what I'm dreaming of.

If you want VA, you can buy 278 version of the above two models.
