You should avoid the internet when you're still not sober, mate.

It should be 1440@240Hz is better than 4K@120Hz and that would be solid. I know how realistic 240Hz is as my a7SIII camera has a viewfinder with that refresh rate. But would still say 60fps is more than enough for most games, especially offline/SP ones.

 

[teezzy]

I've got two 1440p 27" 144hz monitors with my PC and honestly can't see myself bothering to ever replace them unless they literally die on me

I don't see that happening any time this decade tbh

4k120 is the sweet spot.

Esp. a good lcd and 120, where the response time is juuuuust fast enough to have enough motion blur to avoid stutter.

Lg c1 is excellent for this as well.

 

[ACESHIGH]

1620p is the sweet spot. I am not sure if AMD cards now let you down sample at that resolution. They used to jump from 1440p to 1800p.

 

[Neo_game]

I think 4K is a waste of resources for the consoles. Something like texture quality for example or having better LOD is more important IMO. Also as other said for 27 1440P is probably just right for gaming and DLSS obviously helps as well. Though 3090 is not a 1440P card lol. Pretty much all older games and many newer games as well should run like butter in 4K max settings anyways. I have seen videos where people run at 8K and still get some 30 fps.

 

[BennyBlanco]

Yeah I have my PC hooked up to a LG CX and a 1440p/165hz 32 inch monitor. I find myself mostly using the monitor.

 

[tommib]

*cries in Switch*

 

[Jibran#one]

On big 65 and + tvs 1080p and 1440p looks like shit.

 

[ParaSeoul]

OLEDs are superior. LCDs and especially LCD monitors will never come close.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

I prefer 1440p purely because I can hit way higher frames than at 4K. 60fps on a 165hz monitor doesn’t look all that great to me. To each their own though, it’s just preference and everyone is different.

 

[SmokedMeat]

I was on a 4K monitor at 60hz, and upgraded to a 1440p monitor at 165hz. Night and day difference, and I vastly prefer the higher frames.

With DLSS and Fidelity FX 2.0, I really don’t care about 4K native any longer.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

1440 p is blurry garbage

on a 4k display yes....on a 1440p screen no

Especially at 27" monitor size 1440p looks nice

 

[Classicrockfan]

Wow stupid opinion thank god for the ignore feature.

 

[kirby007]

So the 4k team are man u fans and the 1440p city?

 

[SenjutsuSage]

Far from overrated if you have the power to achieve maximum or optimal visuals to performance ratio while at 4K. Better resolution with still excellent performance is always a plus. 4K is by no means mandatory though.

 

[Ironbunny]

I have a 4k tv with ps5/xsx, but my pc is a 1080p 60hz. I only have an 3060ti so i will use it a long as possible in 1080p. If i would use it for 1440p i would have to change it 2-3years sooner.

Been using 1440p gsync 144 hz from 2014...Where do you get those 2-3 years? :S

 

[SLB1904]

Lol no. Wtf. The difference is clear as night and day lol

 

[OverHeat]

Console player?

 

[Celcius]

Give me all the pixels. There's no going back from 4K!

 

[OverHeat]

Lol no. Wtf. The difference is clear as night and day lol

The difference is clear but dont forget that Hz difference is night and day 2

 

[Spyxos]

Been using 1440p gsync 144 hz from 2014...Where do you get those 2-3 years? :S

Everytime it try 1440p i loose 20-30fps or even more. At some point i am not getting 60fps or even 30fps. And 1440p in Csgo is very differrent to getting 1440p in GodofWar.

 

[Dream-Knife]

People seem to forget that we play in motion. More frames means more information. 1440p 100+fps is a lot nicer than 4k 60ish fps.

[Fbh]

4K is cool if you have a really high end PC that can run games at 4K, high setting and high framerates.

For almost every other setup like consoles and mid-low end PC's it's a waste of resources.

I'll never understand games like Trek to Yomi where devs decide that having native 4K (or close) on console is more important than a smooth framerate.

 

[OverHeat]

To add to this imagine getting a perfect FPS that match your refresh rate in my case 240Hz

 

[rudieboy77]

1440 is the new 1080. Look how cheap 32 inch high refresh 1440 monitors are now. I'm happy at 1440 and anywhere from 90 fps to 144 fps.

Mine still cost a 1000$ buck but I have HDR and g sync ultimate.

 

[kyliethicc]

Diminishing returns sure.

But on a 65“ TV the significantly higher resolution helps.

We're a few years off from that. Then who knows what next gen games are at. Then finally games need to use more than 2 threads.

[twilo99]

Bought a 1440p 240hz monitor to go along my almost 4K ultra wide monitor and LG CX OLED. And seriously on a 27´ monitor with a 3090 playing at high framerate is a game changer it look crisp but the main draw is the smoothness of it all 240 fps doom eternal is pure sex!

240FPS @ 1440p at that pixel density is indeed very sexy..

Thing is, until you actually see it with your own eyes, you still think that 30fps @ 4K on a 65inch is the holy grail.

 

[MikeM]

4k 30 < 1440p 60+

For us console plebs

 

[Danjin44]

I didn't know resolutions can be considered as "overrated".......so where are the 10/10 reviews?

 

[Kuranghi]

Positive version of this comment:

Aye pal, its personal preference and no one has the right answer on whats more important

Spoiler

Negative version of this comment:

Fix yer eyes pal.

MidGenRefresh said what needs to be said but I'm just here to josh you.

Danjin44 I know you don't care about resolutions and framerates, more art style and the like, I need you to make me forget about these spatial/temporal wars, take me in your arms sweet prince(ss).

4K 120fps lock is godly too except you got to drop the settings a lot!

Console players that say that 4K is better you know that most your games are not 4K native right?

 

[Knightime_X]

You're finding that 1440p looks crisper than 4K because you're playing on a smaller display. The OLED you've got should be the ultimate. (But it's missing Ultra Wide.) I am already looking forward to 8K!

I've played 1440p on a 75'' monitor and it looks absolutely wonderful.
Esp when the TV supports it.

 

[Ironbunny]

NeoGAF should have an "Blind as a bat"-achievement for certain comments.

75 or 17? Or were you sitting 7 meters away

 

[cinnamonandgravy]

i got a 4K 55" and it's not a huge upgrade over my old 1080p. i did notice a difference when i first got it but going between 1080p + 4K content i don't really notice it.

you have eyes like my mom.

4k is a good everyday resolution.

Especially in 60fps beast mode.

60 FPS is a minimum…

1.8 meters or about 6 feet

 

[Decontamination Silo]

Glad I'm old with diminishing vision. Playing Crysis 2 Remastered with the new BlackFire mod. 1080p max setting and getting a cock locked 60fps on an old i5 and 1070Ti. One of the best looking FPS experiences I've had too.

65' TV in the living room at about 10' away. I did not cheap out on the 3.1 set-up. Great experience.
