What 360hz monitor would u recommend for esports games like csgo/valorant?

Heya,
Ive been looking at a few monitors to buy aswell, since viewsonic made the XG2431 in collab with blurbusters it made me wonder about buying the XG251G since the price difference is not much. https://www.viewsonic.com/uk/products/lcd/XG251G

The review site rtings.com has a few 360Hz monitors reviewed: https://i.imgur.com/B3ARybr.png
You can check which ones are within budget then look at youtube reviews because they will have physical experience with the monitors.
Also search the forums here for the model of monitor and see what the topic is, say you searched X monitor and the topics are issues with the monitor which may influence you not to get the monitor or vice versa.

Sorted by performance:


1) XL2566K

Because compared to other 360 Hz monitor, it is not IPS, it is TN. Its TN panel provides faster pixel transitions.
Secondly, this monitor features DyAc+ which is the best of motion blur reduction technologies on the market, enabling low MPRT while retaining high brightness in NITS.


2) Probably PG27AQN but I haven't tested it.

PG27AQN is 360Hz 1440p using ultrafast IPS (it has faster pixel transitions than the 360 Hz fast-IPS monitors), with pixel transitions almost as fast as those on XL2566K (according to the reviews, e.g. Optimum Tech, who reviewed both these monitors). But it doesn't have motion blur reduction technology.

3) Probably Acer XV252Q F, which I had been using prior to XL2566K.

Not only is it cheaper than other 360Hz fast-IPS monitors, it is also probably better: as far as I know and when I bought it, it was the only one that had motion blur reduction available at its max refresh rate (390Hz). Also its input lag is generally said to be the fastest of the fast-IPS category. Drawback of its motion blur reduction tech (VRB) is the low brightness (in NITS) when using VRB=extreme. It was no problem for me but that's not the case for everyone.
