I have always been a 1080p gamer for as long as I remember even with my top of line system I have now which uses a 980ti and a 6800k. Recently I've been thinking about getting a 4k gaming monitor since my interest was peaked after buying a 4k TV this past holiday but I had a couple of questions first.
Even today there are still no single cards capable of running games at 4k steady 60fps.
- With that in mind let's say I wanted to run my monitor nativity at 4k but play games at 1440p or something. Would that make the picture look worse if the game isn't running at the monitor's native resolution? For example running a game like Diablo3 at native 1080 and DSR scaling it up (which I've tried and it looks terrible).
- 144hz is great but most of the games I play right now in my current rig are not even capable of running at 144fps. IS there a benefit to look for a 144hz 4k monitor or is 60hz better?
- I play a lot of fighting games on PC like Killer Instinct and Street Fighter V, so 1ms response times are important. What monitor would you recommend for this.
