I went from 4k 60hz with a subpar TN panel to a much more color accurate and faster 1440p 165hz, and I'll take high refresh rate over resolution everyday, even though 4k was incredibly sharp. (Both are about the same size monitors). 1080p on high end systems creates a huge CPU bottleneck, so I think 1440p is a good balance.

Id rather have 1440p/Ultra/High FPS than 4k, low-mid and 60 FPS. I can see why some would want 4k though, especially as DLSS continues to advance. I love the really nice visuals, but just don't think 4k is worth giving up the smoothness of high FPS gaming. Plus the cost of trying to get playable framerates at 4k is very high. 1440p looks good enough for me, especially after gaming at 1080p for so long. I am an old school gamer and can still remember what my Atari 2600 and Intellivision setups looked like. Once the cost of 4k gaming comes down, and 4k FPS gets higher then I will move on from 1440p, but until then I'm very happy with my setup.

The human eye at 20:20 Acuity has a focal point resolution somewhere around 420~ Megapixels for whatever we are specifically looking at at any time. So you will definitely notice differences between 1080p and 4K. As you said in the video, it’s MUCH more resource friendly to push 1440p instead of 4K so it might be possibly going on here is a reduction in overall Input Delay. Input Delay/ Input Lag is how long it takes for any action/change to physically show up onto your display. So pushing the game through 1440p should theoretically improve your experience: I say theoretically because a proper 4k monitor has an input delay of 8ms or less vs 4-5ms for a 1440p; so your improvements will not come from the monitor. However, your system should theoretically process 1440 faster than 4k giving you not only more frames but lower input delay; 44.4% lower input delay if I’m looking at the numbers correctly. This could be significant or completely negligible depending on how finely tuned your machine is so it might be worth looking at. A PC player has several tools to SERIOUSLY tune their rig for maximum performance. A Console is considered to already be pre-performance-tuned but with no access to tools, we can’t really tell. Hope this information helps

After you play Vampire Survivors and Dead Cells on a 4k screen you will never go back to anything less. The brain naturally calculates into the future so changing your hardware could have an effect on your timing. The same in sports like baseball the brain has to figure where the ball will be in the future and start swinging the bat long before the ball reaches the plate. Also we "see" what our visual cortex produced and not what our eyes "sees". As far as studies we can "see" a complete image as far as they can tell at 13ms. Faster than 13ms our visual seems to blur the images in together. For example at 120hz you can insert a black screen every other frame running at 60 fps. Our visual cortex can "see" those black screen which can cause some to have seizures but our visual cortex will blur them in with the graphic frames.

It seems to me no pro shooters are for real giving 4k new oled panels a true chance in competitive playing. Now I own 4090 and get around 180hz on warzone while on the 2k I get 240hz easily but still feel the crisp of 4k is a bigger advantage that is until 5090 comes out and reaching 240hz on 4k becomes more possible.

@@schn4zzy my potato got 4070 and i7 12700, sold my 4K 60hz and now go 1440p 144hz because my system is too low for 4K, got AVG fps under 60 in most games and thats not maxed out setting (or maxed out with dlss) now with 1440p, I can play with avg 90fps and maxed out settings dlss/fsr if in quality mode, hard to notice the difference. balance - performance mode look ugly, but from 60 to 120/144, is like night and days! so 1440p 144hz is sweet spot for me because my hardware is potato, and better because I got newer tech monitor (ips with local dimming zone)

I am a fidelity gamer, so i am fine with low FPS as long as I get to see all the bells and whistles. I have learned that I can play a shooter game at 40FPS easily. That said, if i were to start competitive gaming - id turn on DLSS Performance or DLSS Ultra Performance to render at 980p (or less) and get what would be a better than 1440p image. Though using UP would start to present some artifacting. But i like to game and chill

Many people justifying 4k are speaking without taking into account 1440p oled 360hz and the new 480hz (Q2 release date). Motion clarity is going to beat out that extra clarity that you get from 4k which is not worth it. It’s not like ur getting terrible clarity with the 1440p. There’s a point at which clarity has diminishing returns compared to motion clarity and pixel response times.

I see many comments about clarity, 4K does look good, but it looks better if you can maintain 144+ fps. If that's thrashing your GPU then you are probably better off at 2K. High fps does improve clarity and sharpness, so i would prefer higher fps at lower resolution than the other way around. If you don't have an OLED display it doesn't really make much what resolution you use, an OLED should be your next upgrade (for gamers and watching movies) get whichever resolution your GPU can comfortably maintain a matching FPS output, you're not going to be disappointed. OLED's feel faster than their Hz would suggest, they really make a big difference to the gaming or movie experience (especially HDR content)

I’m almost 60 years old. Playing with a monitor at a comfortable viewing for gaming distance means 4K offers me nothing. My eyesight isn’t terrible, but even with a 33 inch screen I can’t see much of a detail difference between 1440 and 4K. I know there is one, and I know younger people with better eyesight can see and enjoy it, but for me it’s a bust. There will never be a reason for me to want to move to 4K Also, with my reactions dulling over the years, refresh rates (screen or input) above about 80 are also useless to me. I would probably loved them 20 or 30 years ago, but now, with my slower reactions and slightly dulled senses, it is pointless.

The higher the resolution considering a same size monitor means a smaller and smaller target on screen. If you are not a good aim person stay on the lower display resolution and inlarge your target on screen which leads to better aim. Just my 2 cents of why lower resolution helps peeps aim in shooter games.

It really depends on the types of games you play and at what viewing distance. I think the new 4k 32 inch Oled monitors with 240 hz is the best. I can still get high refresh on shooters and get immersion on everything else. For me I like the best of both worlds and yes it takes a very high end build but I buy nice not twice. Currently using lg c2 42 inch and have debating on one of the new 32 inch 4k oleds but I game mostly on controller but depends on the game really. To each their own. My friends preach about 27 inch 1440p but yet I still smoke them in shooters. I do understand but let’s be real most people aren’t e sports pros. I’ve been enjoying more immersive games lately than the same old , cod, destiny, Fortnite etc….. so I still get well over 165 FPS in 4k on those titles in 4k.
