Checking if your PC can handle a 2560x1440 170Hz display is worth considering. Running at 1440P should be manageable with your specs, and using the monitor at 1080P would still provide good visual quality.

The build works better for gaming at 1080P resolution. There are also decent 1080P 180Hz IPS monitors available for around $100 USD.

I sensed it would work well in 1080p, though I wasn't completely confident. The monitor I'm checking is the MSI G273CQ. If there are monitors with at least 144Hz for a 27-inch size, let me know. I currently use a Samsung 27" 60Hz second screen and my primary is the Asus VQ248QE, and I need another 27".

It can run at 1440p. Some games will perform well, others poorly. A 1440p screen won’t appear as sharp as a native 1080p display because the image is spread across more pixels, leading to a less clear picture. If you have a 1440p monitor, consider upgrading your GPU eventually. I recommend purchasing the 1440p monitor you prefer. If you’re not satisfied with the performance and are willing to compromise, selling your RX 6600 for a faster model would be a good option.

I sensed that 1080P might not turn out well, so I might consider an alternative. I need to weigh my options.

I play games on a 1440p 144hz 27" Acer xb270hu setup. The graphics card is sufficient for most titles, except before that when I used a 1080ti. 1080p still worked well on it, so performance is quite similar to 1080p, not drastically different from 4k. What i focus on sharing is my positive experience with a 27" monitor at 1440p for many years; it’s much better in size compared to 24". Also, there’s no strong reason for extra image sharpening—anti aliasing hasn’t been used in any game since the monitor was installed, and I notice higher FPS without noticeable impact.

It's helpful to know. I've also checked the MSI G27C4X, and I'm not aiming for an extremely high refresh rate. Just so you know, this screen isn't particularly costly.

Curved depends on personal taste; at 27" immersive size it might feel a bit limited unless you're very close to the screen. You'd need to look up reviews for that scale, as noticeable differences usually start around 30 or 32 inches."

Another consideration is avoiding VA panels. High refresh rates and frame generation can lead to poor motion clarity. Many complaints mention 144Hz or similar speeds seeming low. It's likely a VA panel issue. I recommend doing more thorough research before purchasing this type of panel. I'd rather pick something I genuinely like, even if it costs a bit more.
