keen scarab
#

That's why it's more expensive

keen scarab
#

and LED allows longer life

gray crescent
#

an asus tuf at my budget

keen scarab
#

The 27 inch is LCD

#

So the image will be slightly worse

keen scarab
gray crescent
#

oh?

keen scarab
#

They are only good at one thing: motherboards

#

ViewSonic, LG, and AOC have been making monitors since the CRT days

#

That's how you know they are quality

gray crescent
keen scarab
#

Asus and Acer only recently started making monitors

#

So yeah

#

ViewSonic, LG, and AOC are much much more reliable

#
gray crescent
#

much appreciated

keen scarab
#

This has 4.1 stars

#

And LOOK how many people bought the ViewSonic compared to the Asus

#

1200 people bought the ViewSonic and the ratings are at 4.7 stars

#

44 people bought the Asus and it only got 4.1 stars

#

So there's proof

#

ViewSonic, LG, and AOC are the only monitor companies I trust

#

Gigabyte is also really good

#

Here is another Asus:

#

1500 have reviewed and it only has 4 stars

#

Versus 1200 and 4.7

#

ViewSonic just has the better ratio

#

@gray crescent

#

Therefore I think you should buy this:

#

The 24 inch

gray crescent
#

yes

keen crater
#

whats the best and cheapest 240 hz monitor

keen scarab
#

It's slightly pricier but you get the LED display instead of LED

#

Read the conversation above

#

And you will find out what brands to choose form LMAO

#

@keen crater

keen scarab
keen crater
#

yes

keen scarab
#

It will tell you what reliable brands there are

keen crater
#

i currently have 2 144 acer monitors

keen scarab
keen crater
#

its going ok just wanna take full advantage of the frames im getting

keen scarab
#

Just ok

#

Viewsonic, LG, and AOC will make it great LOL

#

@keen crater What size and price?

keen crater
#

24 inch and under 300 if possible

keen crater
#

should it go on sale soon

keen scarab
#

No but it should be cheaper

#

And it should be sold by Amazon

#

I think the seller is 3rd party

#

I never trust 3rd party

keen crater
#

its 420 bucks

trail sparrow
keen scarab
#

BenQ is good

#

But Dell...

#

I hate Dell

#

It's a personal thing

trail sparrow
#

i adore dell

#

just in general

#

what made u hate them lol

keen scarab
#

So everytime I turned it on it literally went into seizure mode

#

Dell just as TERRIBLE quality control

trail sparrow
#

oh consumer

keen scarab
#

They are such a big company they can't control anything

trail sparrow
#

everyones consumer stuff is bad

keen scarab
#

Therefore their quality suffers

trail sparrow
#

dell is the business brand

#

and nah inspiron is just their "cheap trash" line

keen scarab
#

And they gave me S H I T

#

so yeah

full moat
#

have you considered that was because it was a human on the other end?

keen scarab
#

They are just such a big company

trail sparrow
#

yeah idk the inspiron brand in general is kinda known for that

#

dell emc is fantastic though

keen scarab
#

@keen crater This monitor is good but it has a 4ms response time so that kinda sucks:

#

Anyways

#

I go no

guys what brand i get for 240hz minitor

#

?

wary kestrel

I would get an Asus, Alienware or a BenQ Zowie

porb an Asus

since they claim some of their 240hz monitor can get up to a 0,4-0,5 ms response time

Is IPS the same as Tn panel now in terms of input lag

alienware is 😍😍😍 but it is very expensive for being tn,the Asus can be over clocked to 280hz and ips so idk

Does anyone think that Nano IPS is worth $120 more than regular IPS?

visual pilot
#

"nano IPS" all marketing really

#

Specs and performance is what matters

dry badger
#

Don’t most displays use NanoIPS now

visual pilot
#

idrc about it, if you want to talk about nano ips, might as well bring up Gigabyte's Super speed IPS, whatever that is

#

It's IPS, it has good colors, that's what matters.

orchid pagoda
#

Can you guys give me recommendation which one should i get from Alienware AW2521HF, MSI MAG251RX , Asus Tuf VG259QM and Acer Predator XB253q all IPS Monitor

dry badger
#

i wouldn’t know- haven’t heard much other then from the Alienware

visual pilot
#

for gaming?

#

@orchid pagoda what are you planning to use the monitor for?

blazing ingot
#

I don't think tahz ever is. I think they'll be stuck forever in monitor indecision until the next generation of stuff

#

:p

visual pilot
#

I would cross off XB253q to start off

#

VG295qm prob, but don't have good data on mag251rx

visual pilot
#

I mean

#

@orchid pagoda VG259QM

blazing ingot
#

The tuf

visual pilot
#

that's the winner based off stats

#

but don't have good stats on mag251rx

dry badger
#

Genuinely curious but

#

QLED or OLED for gaming?

visual pilot
#

other specs

dry badger
#

Such as?

visual pilot
#

iirc OLED can have faster response time and refresh rates than QLED can

#

But for gaming, refresh rate and pixel response time

#

also blur/overshoot but that's harder to quantify

dry badger
#

Don’t most higher end models have far less blur and overshoot?

orchid pagoda
visual pilot
#

what

#

@orchid pagoda it's the best from review data

#

the only possible competitor is the MAG251RX, since there's not great data on it

dry badger
#

Honestly I’m debating between LG’s CX series and a few QLED tv’s

#

Mainly the Q90T 55 inch and LG CX 48 inch

cobalt dagger
#

or should I hold out a bit longer and see if any other deals drop?

visual pilot
#

meh

#

lemme pull up M27q

cobalt dagger
#

hmmm it's showing as $360 for me

#

oh the promo

#

awesome thank you @visual pilot!

visual pilot
#

:)

cobalt dagger
#

I guess my last question would be about g-sync. The LG one had it and the M27q has FreeSync. Should I just ignore the g-sync despite having a nvidia card? A lot of what I've read says freesync will work just as well.

visual pilot
#

Freesync means it'll be G-Sync compatible, and both monitors are G-Sync compatible

#

Actual G-Sync monitors are expensive as heck, since actual G-Sync certification means they specifically tested it, and it comes with a G-Sync chip in the monitor

cobalt dagger
#

Awesome done and done. Thank you again!

blazing ingot
#

Freesync will USUALLY work with gsync.

Actual gsync adds like 200 bucks to a monitor.

If the freesync has been tested to work with the base level of gsync functions it will say gsync compatible. If it doesn't say that it most likely will work with gsync but may not

dry badger
#

Aight

LG CX 48 inch or the Q90T as a main display?

keen scarab
#

LG

#

That's kind of OP for a main display no?

orchid pagoda
visual pilot
#

From the data we have, you should probably go for it.

west knot
#

All 3 of those monitor crossing out the acer, are top 1080p 240hz ips monitors, its up to you to decide which functionality you need and your hardware specs.

#

Also you'd be playing the ips glow lottery so you can look up your chances per monitor.

keen scarab
#

I think LG, ViewSonic, AOC, and Gigabyte share much more reliable options

#

BenQ is good too

#

The Asus overall is better but I think ViewSonic in general gives you more value and reliability

#

But if the reviews on the Asus is solid then it's good too

blazing ingot
#

Model matters more than brand this gen imo

sage trail
#

1080p at 27 inches is cringe

unless youre sitting like 5 feet away from the monitor

pallid crystal
#

is there a 240hz refresh rate 4k resolution monitor that exists

dry badger
#

Even then, 4k240hz is the definition of Redundant Redundancy

#

144hz is far more then enough for any resolution, but for 4K it’s the sweet spot rn

#

There’s not many games that can run at 4K with High/Ultra settings at anything greater then around 130-150fps

https://us.aoc.com/en/gaming-monitors/cq27g2 <<<this is my monitor, i bought it for my pc build later on when things restock, but for now i plugged it into my laptop (basic intel hd 620 graphics). I play my games thru Geforce Now and i notice a lot of lag all of a sudden. It is plugged in via the HDMI cable the monitor came with, and the monitor has 2 HDMI 2.0 ports, so im guessing the cable is HDMI 2.0 too. When i go into intels graphic command center, their is no option for 144hz either, only 60hz, even though the command center says the display supports 144hz...any idea whats up?

#

Idk the motherboard but this is the system info. It’s a basic Lenovo laptop

#

@maiden wedge

#

lenovo ideapad s340-14WL @maiden wedge

#

np

#

yup thats exactly it

#

so do you know what the issue may be?

#

ohhh okay thanks

#

kk

#

ok then...i was thinking to maybe buy another hdmi 2.0 cable and see if it would work, because they didnt specify if the monitor came with a HDMI 1.4 cable or 2.0 cable

#

oh so the actual laptop might be the issue eh?

#

its honestly weird cus every resolution is capped at 60hz for me

#

Ok so I changed the resolution to 1080p and I can get 120hz now

#

Weird

#

Yeah it’s okay I can live with this for now until I build my pc with a 3060ti

Thanks for the help tho man I really appreciate it

hi guys

#

so quick question, is 200hz G-SYNC better than 400hz w/out G-SYNC?

rustic basin
#

Gsync unneeded

blazing ingot
#

How often is the signal you're generating going to be over 200hz

#

I believe if the signal you generate is under your monitors refresh rate, gsync prevents tearing/stuttering. If the signal you generate is over your monitors refresh rate, gsync doesn't do much and you might get tearing. Vsync would help get rid of the tearing but would cause slight input delay.

Many people disable vsync in games but use nvidia control panel to set this to use gsync under the monitors refresh rate and vsync over it

#

If I recall correctly

visual pilot
#

The reccomended G sync settings is G sync in control panel, ultra low latency mode, and a frame cap via control panel of 3hz below refresh rate

Would a LG Ultragear 27GL83A-B 27" 1440p be a good pair with a 27" 1800R curve on the left? Only asking cause I want a good monitor that's curved to compliment my other left monitor but can't really find one so will probably settle with a flat one. Just wanna know if it's a good pair.

daring drum
#

I guess it depends on the amount of space you have on your desk. I have a curved as my main, and a flat on the right, and it can be quite difficult ti fit them properly without taking too much space, but my space is limited, mostly so that might just be a "me" issue

hi all

#

could someone pls help me a stand for my samsung model s34e790c

#

which one would fit? i am looking for something that will fit above the samsung g9 49inc

polar sage
#

How do i know if i should use vsync or free sync? Does it matter which gpu and monitor im using?

maiden wedge
#

Hi is it possible to fix a monitor with a cracked screen on it or get the screen replaced

blazing ingot
#

Use freesync (not vsync) when the fps your computer generates is under the monitors refresh rate. Use vsync over. Usually your video card program will have a way to have them set up like this

sacred goblet
#

@maiden wedge iyou can get the screen replaced and i dont think you can fix the crack in it tho

ips is cute

maiden wedge
#

Is this an issue only with the IPS Ultragears? Or in general with IPS monitors.

#

I see..you never had an issue with the VAs?

#

I originally got an IPS for gaming, and VA for movies..but ended up using the VA as my primary

#

my only regret is getting a 32 inch instead of 27 inch at 1440p

#

also an ultra gear?

#

I see...from what I've heard the Optix are pretty good value monitors comparable to the LGs

#

i'm running a ultragear freesync 32inch va 1440p

#

yeah, but some people are like that...my boss saw the 27 inch g-sync on sale for 320..but couldn't bite the bullet..he wanted to research

#

now it's back up to 370 and he doesn't want to pay the 50.

#

good monitors..the fressync versions are pretty good, at least for me. so far no issues running gsync on them. no flicker issues or things like that. again my biggest regret is the size...i wish i went smaller

#

originally i had a 5700xt so gsync didn't matter to me

#

didn't know about the bleed...might be you got a lemon?

#

what exactly are you looking for? I mean gsync is also kinna unnecessary, usually free sync would do just fine if you find the correct model. since not all free sync monitors have the same standard. gsync you know you are pretty much paying for top of the line.

#

4k gaming? production, just all around?

#

How close do you sit to your monitors.. I'm making due with 32 inch by putting it quite far on my desk. 1440p

#

I honestly think I would like the 27 better.

#

O man. You gonna try to go Ultra gear again?

#

I'm not having any bleed issues on the VA.

#

Don't have the exp with the ultra gear ips

#

I'm running asus 24 inch ips monitor. No bleed at all.

#

For the price they are pretty good monitors.

#

Damn I'm still kicking myself in the ass getting 32 inch. But it was in sale. So didn't want to pass on it. The 27inch was more exp.

#

It seems to be the new sweet spot for most ppl at 1440p

#

lol...i have a big desk..so i put it quite far, so i get pretty much the same as a 27 inch

#

when i start getting close..yeah...you def can see pixels

#

but if i had the choice, i would prefer to have my monitors more close..i think the gaming experience would also be better.

#

That's the thing esp, with technology, always something else you could've bought or done.

#

i'm still upset i couldn't get a 3080 tuf oc...my msi gaming x trio has given me no issues whatsoever..but i wanted a tuf.

#

i don't remember if we can put links...i probably don't have enough levels

#

Asus VP249QGR 23.8

#

that's the monitor i bought...again i had a 5700xt at the time so freesync was fine for me

#

in case i wanted the true color gamit, i went with the IPS...tbh i like my VA panel, but you can tell in games the colors are a little bit subdued and not as popping

#

i mean sorta, but it kinna just tells you it's "top of the line" for freesync you have to do a little bit more research, cause freesync is not equal on all monitors

#

with my exp so far, i would not be afraid to get a freesync monitor with the proper research and save the extra money...ssometimes gsync label can have a price premium of 200...that's too crazy imo

#

and i know that's it's just a marketing tool in those cases, the freesync equivalent will work just as good

blazing ingot
#

Most people say most freesync works just fine with gsync.

Gsync compatable is a nice spot because it doesn't have the actual gsync price bump but is certified to work

But I wouldn't be hesitant to buy a freesync if I saw at least one gsync user saying it was fine

Hey guys I am currently looking at three different monitors and was wondering if somebody can help me determine which one would best suit my needs.

blazing ingot

No one can of you don't post both your needs /use case and the monitors

sour rivet
#

I was wondering What the Newegg dead pixel return policy removed means. Does that mean if I get 1 dead pixel on my monitor on arrival I will be able to return it?

visual pilot
#

Yes

#

@sour rivet the old policy required at least 4 dead pixels iirc

sour rivet
#

Okay thank you @visual pilot because I read that the old return policy was one was 8 pixels but now they said that they " So in an effort to improve your buying experience, we have removed the dead pixel requirements from our return policy on monitors and TVs, so you can shop displays with confidence." Soo i was wondering if 1 dead pixel was enough to qualify for a return policy

visual pilot
#

Yea

#

The requirement was removed

sour rivet
#

Okay thank you very much since i Just ordered the (GIGABYTE M27Q 27") and was really scared of getting some dead pixels on arrival and having to just deal with it. Thank you very much again for the help. I'm pretty bad at comprehending what was written

maiden wedge
#

Whats the average price for a 2560x1440 144hz monitor?

sour rivet
#

Around 500$ CAD

sour rivet
#

Tbh I just started looking into monitors a week ago but it seems pretty good to me

maiden wedge
#

390 CAD

sour rivet
#

Reviews are good too

maiden wedge
#

and a reputable and well known company

sour rivet
#

Amazon returns are supposedly easy too

#

For canadians its 540 and no sale rn

#

I'd go for it 🙂

maiden wedge
#

alrigfhty

#

Alrighty*

#

Ill get it maybe saturday night

sour rivet
#

Yeah could get an second opinion too

maiden wedge
#

seems really good

#

average is 300-400 USD

#

so

#

im on the very lowest end

sour rivet
#

Mhmm mhmm

maiden wedge
#

d'ya know much about computers?

sour rivet
#

I'd say i know a bit about computers

#

Any questions @maiden wedge ?

maiden wedge
#

GPU : Ryzen 5600xt
CPU : R5 2600x
RAM : Corsair vengence LPX 8x2 3000mhz
Mobo : B450M
PSU : 750W Gold

#

These are my specs

#

Just wanted to know what monitor i should get, that would best fit this setup

#

others said 144hz 1080

#

just DM me with a reply if you want

river edge
#

Yeah, 1080144hz

maiden wedge
#

hmm

river edge
#

Sorry. 1080p, 144hz

maiden wedge
#

Even if i dont do too much FPS?

river edge
#

I mean, 120hz would be fine too

maiden wedge
#

i found a 2560x1440 144hz for 300$

river edge
#

No

#

That card won't do 1440p 144hz

maiden wedge
#

im planning on upgrading a few parts soon

#

hmm

river edge
#

My 2060 barely does

maiden wedge
#

alright

river edge
#

upgrading what to what?

maiden wedge
#

CPU, Ram and mobo

#

not sure when exactly

river edge
#

yeah, that won't help with 1440p

#

Need a better GPU for that

maiden wedge
#

k

river edge
#

5700XT at a bare minimum

#

Even then, 144hz is pushing it

maiden wedge
#

i dont have to run it at 144hz all the time

river edge
#

What I'm saying is, 144hz for that GPU is a waste of money

maiden wedge
#

alright

river edge
#

120hz

#

Maybe 90hz

#

Unless you plan on upgrading the GPU

maiden wedge
#

possibly, depends

#

if i could sell it, for sure

river edge
#

1440p gaming is tough without a good GPU

maiden wedge
#

but idk if anybody would want to buy a 5600xt

#

especially with nVidia releasing so many new cards

river edge
#

My RTX2060 struggles in some games with everything maxed. Cyberpunk is everything Medium and 60 FPS

maiden wedge
#

yeah

#

the most intensive game i play is Warzone

river edge
#

I mean, you can spend the money on a 144hz 1440p panel but the video card probably won't do 1440p very well

maiden wedge
#

yeah

river edge
#

So, it's your money. 🙂

#

up to you

maiden wedge
#

i suppose

#

i just would rather have it for down the line

river edge
#

But how far down the line?

maiden wedge
#

rather than buy another 1080,

river edge
#

1440p 144hz monitors are just going to get cheaper

trail sparrow
#

1080p is fine

maiden wedge
#

1-2 months

river edge
#

so are GPU's

maiden wedge
#

I guess

#

maybe i can snag a 3070 in 1-2 months

#

lmao

river edge
#

Keep in mind though that you'll also need a new CPU and RAm at the least

maiden wedge
#

YEah

#

i know those need upgraded

trail sparrow
#

1080p 240hz is my golden standard

river edge
#

With a 5600XT?

trail sparrow
#

ust for me vintage

maiden wedge
#

hmm

#

Well

trail sparrow
#

240hz is stupid for most ppl

maiden wedge
#

i've used bigger monitors, and i really like them

trail sparrow
#

im just overly competitive in fps

maiden wedge
#

i dont play to much FPS

#

even tho i stated warzone

trail sparrow
#

battle royale is stupid as hell

maiden wedge
#

eh

#

i have fun

trail sparrow
#

as long as u have fun

maiden wedge
#

yep

trail sparrow
#

im like

#

fps boomer

maiden wedge
#

i dont rage when i loose

trail sparrow
#

only play old shooters

maiden wedge
#

or get mad really

trail sparrow
#

i hate rng in games

maiden wedge
#

i think tarkov has made me this way

trail sparrow
#

if im better than the other person i should win every time

maiden wedge
#

no

#

thank god its not like that

trail sparrow
#

i dont wanna die cause i cant find a specific gun

#

im a quake lord keeeek

maiden wedge
#

ew

#

Well

#

i'll think it over

#

i have around 800$ rn

#

and if i upgrade parts, and some how sell the old ones

#

not likely, but who knows

trail sparrow
#

games are satisfying when you hit the skillcap

#

lot of battle royale have low cap

#

so

#

eh

maiden wedge
#

i dont play much FPS

#

so

#

i only really do Warzone with my brother

trail sparrow
#

yeah its just fun to hit the ceiling

#

what do u play then

wild coralBOT
#
Magaman49#9176 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

trail sparrow
#

cause imo u only need to push constant 144 on fps

maiden wedge
#

wat

#

used to play a crap load of tarkov

#

i was good at that

trail sparrow
#

1440p 144hz but getting 75ish fps is fine

#

for like

#

singleplayer

maiden wedge
#

Yea

#

Well

#

like i said

trail sparrow
#

ive never needed 240fps for a singleplayer game lol

maiden wedge
#

plan on upgrading soon

#

i guess i'll hold off on a monitor

#

and get one if/after i upgrade

#

Whaddya think is the best way to sell parts?

#

if im upgrading GPU CPU RAM and mobo

#

Thats alot of extra money just laying around if i dont sell them

#

i suppose i can see if one of my siblings wants to buy some

trail sparrow
#

ebay or ppl u know

#

issue is

#

if its someone u know

#

and theyre

#

and break smth

#

theyll blame u omegalul

maiden wedge
#

eh

#

if they buy only 4 parts of a PC

#

i guess i'd help them get the rest, and make it a full system

#

yeah, ebay wokrs

#

i've had trouble with them tho

trail sparrow
#

ebay is nice

#

craigslist is sketchy as hell but

#

might b alriht

maiden wedge
#

yea

#

Well

#

Do you think i can get one of the 30 series cards in 1-2 months

trail sparrow
#

depends how little of a life u have omegalul

#

if ur able to check every single restock

#

then

#

yea mayb

maiden wedge
#

lol

#

well

#

i have atleast some what of a life

#

not a basement dweller

#

so thats a plus

#

idfk

#

What i REALLY need

#

is an excuse for my mom, as to why im buying more parts, in the same year

#

hmmm....

sour rivet
#

Say they dont wont no more 🙂

maiden wedge
#

dont wont?

#

d'ya mean "Dont work"?

sour rivet
#

Yeah*

maiden wedge
#

how would that explain me selling them?

#

Hmmm....

#

my life depends on this

#

or, atleast, my epic PC gaming setup

#

well

sour rivet
#

Say that you found an insane deal online and that you're selling the old pieces for a better newer one

maiden wedge
#

I Do have my own debit finally

#

hmmm .....

#

Possible

#

or that i won them in a giveaway

#

hmmm

sour rivet
#

MMMMM winning 3 pc parts in a giveaway kinda insanely lucky

#

but maybe

maiden wedge
#

But where ever i got it from would mark the package...

#

maybe have it sent to my brothers house

#

hmmm

#

that could work

im planning on 1000$ worth of upgrades

#

Sit down with each one. Blind test. Tell me you'll see a difference.

#

it's also a VA panel, not TN

I finally upgraded my main monitor to a ASUS VG278QR and so far so good besides one thing: When my PC wakes from sleep, all my windows or apps from the main monitor are moved to one of the secondary displays, It's like the secondary displays wake up faster and are recognized as the main by the PC a sec before the main monitor wakes up and the PC recolonizes it as the main, Anyone have any ideas how I can get this working right? I did a lil searching online with no luck yet

vague wave
#

hello, was wondering if anyone knew what's the difference between the Acer V277U and the Acer VG270U? Ive looked but no luck

blazing ingot
#

Well the first thing I noticed iced was different response times but I'm on mobile so can't look side by side for more differences easily

#

I'd look at the manufacturers spec sheets side by side

deep fern
#

it looks like main difference is response time and refresh rate. unless im looking at the wrong panel the vg270u is 144hz with the other being 75hz. but the weird thing is on some spec sheets im seeing the vg270u listed as 75hz as well so i may be mistaken

Is a 240hz 1080p monitor worth it over 1440p 144hz for a 3060ti?

visual pilot

@tame swallow I mean, 1440p144hz is gonna look a good bit better

#

It's 2 different alternatives, but 1080p240hz is by no means just better than 1440p144hz

river edge
#

What GPU though? 1440p 144hz does look better but need a decent GPU for it.

I'm looking to expand my double-monitor setup with a third one. Since both I have rn are 1080p, I was thinking maybe 1440p is worth it? Dunno how affordable a decent 1440p monitor is tho.

Mine is discontinued. But it's 1440p 165hz VA panel for $250

#

So I'd say $250-$300

#

I don't want to spend too much on it, probs a max of 200€ or so

#

ah oof

#

I'll keep scouring the local used markets then

#

Which one do you have?

Dell something, gotta look it up

Guess so

#

Looks like on paper its comparable to the vg27aql1a but cheaper

hot zephyr
#

It looks like it was $450 or so the majority of the time

#

aaaand it's 250€ in baguette land 🤦

#

Considering asking a friend in the US to receive tech for me and I pick it up next time I visit.

Hey do you think the msi ag32c monitor is a good deal for 210$ for the 32 in version

Statistics

Because 1 bad monitor doesn't mean all the rest are bad too

visual pilot
#

@modest palm You could have a 1/100,000 bad monitor, and that's just bad luck

#

Any no if the ag32c is a good monitor or not like for 210$

Gigabyte M27Q ( local price 350 eur ) vs LG 32GK650F ( local price is like 295 eur)
which one is better? and is 32inch really worth it? I would have space for 32 inch but I am not sure I need it or if its really worth it

#

also how would the 1070 perform with 1440p... is it even worth grabbing 1440p with 1070, but I might upgrade it rather soon like in a year or 2 depends on when there are proper sales here and not some -3% BS because they increased the price 2 weeks earlier

I mean for games that I play like squad or arma 3 or insurgency sandstorm I can run 1080p with like 50% upscalling rather fine like 70 fps beside arma 3 ofc.

ur fine for older games

theyre just saying you probably wont hit above 60fps so 144hz may not be worth
