I don’t even have a 144 Hz screen

I’m running 3 40 inch TV’s as monitors.

I find as I get older and my vision is not what it once was, I need bigger screens with good contrast but don’t care so much about resolution. I think it was on the show Corner Gas where they were talking about how big a screen you should get and concluded the size in inches should match your age. That made me laugh but I have to confess now there may be some truth in that…

Wouldn’t that break the necks of everyone over 50?

Screw 4k, but 120+ hz is amazing. I can barely stand playing things are 60fps anymore. I really notice it when game dips.

Refresh rate is king. I would much rather use a 1080p 120+Hz monitor over 4k 60Hz. 1440p 144Hz is the sweet spot though, big visual improvement over 1080p without the need to bankrupt yourself on a GPU powerful enough to drive a 4k 120Hz display or relying on upscaling making everything a blurry mess.

My monitor is 4K 30 FPS the best of both world! XD

That’s a strawmen
The true issue is that a lot of games weigh ~150Gb and run a 45 fps on low at a resolution of 720~1080p

My monitors are over a decade old and are still perfectly fine. I’ll upgrade to 1440p/144 Hz when I start seeing dead pixels or some other failure.
They have DVI ports and all my stuff is too new for DVI so I’m on the adapter diet lol

I do have a 4k display. On my weakest machine.

I’m a big fan of 4k/who gives a shit.

I just got a laptop with a 2160p screen and I honestly can’t really tell the difference.

Nah 4K is wonderful. The higher the pixel density, the better the display (for me at least)

If you can run 4k at high frame rates then sure but the performance hit can be huge and a lot of displays can only do 4k at 30Hz anyway which isn’t worth it when 1440p is usually an option.

1440p for the win!
Bluefruit@lemmy.world 2 months ago
1440p at 144hz is the ideal imo.

Even general desktop use is much more fluid like the mouse cursor, scrolling, and moving windows. I immediately notice if a monitor is running at 60 hz.
