Windows 10: Getting a new Monitor

Hey guys, new to the community, sorry if this is not allowed here please delete in. I am getting a new gaming monitor 240hz in a few days (MSI mag251rx) and my question is, are there some settings i have to tune in windows 10 to use my monitor to the full potential? (like changing the refresh rate in windows from 60hz to 240hz?) Thanks for your help and have a great day!

New monitor suggestions, £200 budget

So I am getting (hopefully) £200 of amazon vouchers from work for Christmaqs and have decided I want to get a new monitor, my current is a 23" Samsung Syncmaster, I believe it's a TN panel and the res is 2048x1152. It really is starting to get on my nerves as the coloring is not very natural so I am thinking an IPS panel would probably be a lot better quality wise so I am open to some suggestions as I really don't have a clue when it comes to monitors.

Things to note:

• I do not want to go smaller than 24"

• Would prefer 27" if possible for the budget

• If not then perhaps 24" 120hz

• I currently run 2048x 1152 though 1920 x 1080 is fine

• Must come in at or around £200-£250 absolute max
