1440p vs 144hz monitor?

I have a limited budget, is 1440p really that much of an improvement over 1080p?

I know 144hz will be smoother but that only applies to CS, TF2 and Overwatch. Not a lot will actually take advantage of the hz. And TN monitors have inaccurate colors and terrible angles.


But 1440p actually makes text smaller and is not the standard resolution yet for most things. IPS monitors apparently have the best colors though. (suffers in response)


Would you take resolution over refresh rate?

60fps vs 144fps is a bigger difference than 1080p vs 1440p.

I unironically want Shad to draw Kat from Gravity Rush.

>Would you take resolution over refresh rate?
Never

Windows has issues with high DPI monitors. Go with 144hz.

That is true. If only there was side by side comparisons of TN colors vs IPS colors. I saw one video but the guy was cheating because the TN monitor was 50 million dollars and had better specs than most TNs.

And also there will be more time spent browsing and doing other stuff besides 3 games. So it's still hard for me to decide.

I'd say don't bother with 1440p, 4k is a big hit on performance. 144hz makes fps a lot smoother.

144hz is probably the better choice.

GET OUT

>don't bother with 1440p, 4k is a big hit on performance

No, you get out, you filthy ginger-lover

Good thing no one is talking about 4k, then?

144Hz is probably the greater improvement now, but keep in mind that 1440p will likely become the default resolution within a couple of years.

Remember that time Cred Forums thought shadman was good just because he drew Hilary porn?

Go with 144hz for silky smooth

Yeah I looked at a lot of 1440p comparisons and I cannot tell the difference at all with 1080p.

The only drawback with TN monitors apparently is worse colors. The card and the cpu already cost me a lot, so being restricted to 1080p feels really shitty too. I'm planning to get a 27" monitor too which means pixels.

>unironically wanting Shad to draw anything

>tfw you unironically like Shad's art when he isn't being overly edgy or focusing on buttholes.

144Hz is unbelievable.
And unlike what most people claim, it's not "only" useful for twitchy games, because everything will be more confortable to look at at 144Hz.
But yes, the difference really does shine in FPS and racing games.

Go for 4K. Otherwise you don't get enough graphics in your video card to render the game. 1080P looks like Satan's balls now.

Am I crazy in thinking 1440p will be skipped and the next step up from 1080p would be 4k instead? I mean even the consoles are trying to do it. I doubt 1440p will be mainstream when 4K already kinda is.

Oh I guess it's not 4k, so it's a literal meme-resolution. It'll still hit performance.

That's a load of horseshit.

I think 1440p will be skipped as well, because movies don't use it.

nobody designs games for anything above 1080p yet, all it does is stretch your UI and makes muddy ass textures more apparent

Fighting games are usually capped at 60, do I still notice a difference?

This

I have a 144hz as my main monitor and a 60hz as my secondary and the difference in just moving the mouse around and doing basic browsing shit is astounding

No.

Doesn't matter the genre, if the game can support framerates higher than 60 then you will notice a difference.

Framerate >>> resolution

DIE ALREADY

>nobody designs games for anything above 1080p

If this is true, I'm ordering my 1080p monitor right away. Also how bad are TN monitor colors compared to IPS? There needs to be a direct side by side comparison.

Just go to an electronics store and see for yourself.

Can't really be explained in text.

Are you retarded?
Don't buy 1080 if you have the money and power for 1440+.

Night and Day.
It's like going to an electronics section/store and seeing all the different tv's on display.
Granted store lighting is not an accurate enviorment for them anyway but oh well
Those ones you see which are dark and have muddy colors are like the TN's. And the bright and colorful ones are like the IPS equivalent.

Really, gaming on a 1440 IPS is great. Some games are a new experience from those restored colors.

shadbase is terrible but at least he speaks to my fetishes.

Go on ebay and buy an overclockable 2560x1440 QNIX monitor, you fucking monkey.

I went for 1440p. A 27" 1440p monitor has about the same pixel density as a 21" 1080p monitor, looks quite nice.

I'm still not used to shit running at over 60FPS and a low framerate has never really bothered me as long as it stays relatively consistent and at least 30FPS or so. I'm probably the exception to the rule here in hat regard but whatever.

>gaming on 1440 IPS is great

The only cons are response time, lag, usually capped at 60hz. But yeah it's still really hard to decide. I mean, at 1440p GTX 1070 can still maintain 60fps right? If 60fps is still possible, 1440p would be great.

144hz would be a huge improvement too, but it's only for a few games. For me, TF2, CS and Overwatch are probably the only games that will require that much. Aside from those 3, the monitor would just be a standard 1080p that everyone else has.


This is a good idea. I'm gonna go to Best Buy today.

>barefoot

Trashed.

Depends whether you prefer better picture over better game feel

I recently bought an Asus 144hz monitor yet I can't seem to get it to work with my system. I have an i5 and a GTX 960 yet when I plug it in with display port I can't get any games to load. Like with Overwatch it will stay on the login screen. Once I waited long enough to get into the menu but it won't even load the character splash or hero gallery.

It works fine with DVI of course. Do I just need to upgrade my video card?

>shad

You need much more money in order to consistently make use of the 144hz difference, other than moving your cursor and snapping windows

1440p is a better investment if you actually use your pc for anything other than gaming

>The only cons are response time, lag, usually capped at 60hz.
Well there's 120hz IPS but the power for modern FPS isn't quite there yet without graphical compromises.
response time shit needs to end though.
1-5ms is literally impossible to tell the difference.

but that's his best stuff senpai

Will a 144hz monitor eliminate screen tearing if the frame rate never goes over 144 fps?

pretty good except for the feet desu

>literal meme resolution
man you know nothing

that left foot what the fuck
oh god what the actual fuck look at it

>tfw you like buttholes but not edgy

The korean monitors don't have an OST so the response time is decent. You wouldn't be able to tell the difference between 5ms and 1ms.

Still would take 144hz over 1440

That shitposting. Witcher 3 is pixel mess with 1080p. When i change it to 1440p the difference is huge. What the hell are you talking about you sack of shit,

go with 1440p, totally worth it if you can maintain 60fps

i'd only go with 144hz if all you play is competitive fps or something

>shad

She has a penis, so yes.

1440p@144hz. Get a ROG Swift or Acer Predator.

I unironically want Shad to go back to drawing the cartoon fallout vault-girls because the simplistic coloring means he doesn't ruin them with his gross details / textures and shit.

I never could understand how people could play on monitors. How can sitting on a chair staring at a 24 inch screen be as immersive and comfy as sitting on your bed or sofa and staring at a beautiful 50' plus HD TV.

>memes

>50' plus HD TV
>50 feet of television

>not using a VR headset to make 50' TV a thing you actually can see, not just a typo
