(1) Resolution or refresh rates ?
PC gaming being new to me, I'm looking to up my monitor game..Simple question, not based on hardware, etc..
(2) What are you running

Depends entirely on what you’re playing. If you’re playing competitive online shooters, fps is king. If you’re playing graphically intensive single player narrative games, as long as you’re getting a decent and, more importantly consistent, frame rate, resolution is more important.
As an example, I’m currently playing Horizon Forbidden West at a rock solid 70fps or so, so I see no reason to reduce graphical settings from max. If I were at 50fps, that would be a different story.

Definitely refresh rate.
I have a Series X and PC. On PC I run 1440 on 165 Hz

For any game that even resembles something falling anywhere under the very wide sub genre of “action games” frame rate will always be better because those games require a degree of skill how much so depending on each game and your ability to output that skill adequately is much better with higher frame rates.
It’s why playing BB feels a bit quaint to me as the game is locked to 30 FPS. I’m used to it by now for sure so it’s factored into my play but imagine a FromSoft game launching like that now. I haven’t played elden ring in forever but I remember around launch it struggled bigly holding 60 fps on pretty much all platforms but I imagine that’s all ironed out by now but it was a big deal for some.
Then go play a game extremely like those in lies of P and it’s ps5 performance mode pretty much has held 60fps since day 1 as I recall and the difference between 45-60 in that game could be winning and losing
