Depends entirely on what you’re playing.


Moving from PS5/X to PC, mainly dove into Helldivers II and Horizon FW, type games..

Ill keep the X if i ever pick CoD back up, but thinking i might try BF on pc just to see whats what..

The jump from 1080 to 1440 in resolution is pretty big, looks wise. Along the same lines that Josh said, but current PC hardware can push good FPS in 1440. For me, this was the easiest jump. You can almost have the best of both worlds in FPS, looks, and cost in the 1440p sets.

1440p at 144Hz or 165Hz are very available and you can get a 27" for under $200, and sometimes a 32" for a bit over $200.

What are your running on your build (CPU/GPU)?

To shift more to a monitor shopping stance, regardless of what I play, I would never buy a monitor that’s lower than 120hz, ideally 144hz. With the advent of variable refresh rate technology, there’s just no reason, outside of cost, to go lower. You won’t always get that frame rate, but again, unless you’re super cost sensitive, no reason not to have it as an option.

Personally, I have a 3440x1440 (1440p ultrawide) with a max refresh of 144fps. I plan to run that for about another half decade or so, then once gpu tech can push it, I’ll buy a 5k/2k (4k ultrawide), likely around 144fps again, but I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it.

Honestly, the more interesting questions at this point revolve around tech, from IPS to OLED, and everything in between.
