4K or FHD Gaming

Timon18

Hi, I am about to buy a new pc and with that a new monitor.

I want something like 27", probably curved, to play racing and 3rd person games.

Is it worth it to buy a monitor with 1080p resolution, or should I buy already something in 4K. I already have a 4K TV just to watch movies.

Also, will buying a wide monitor like that affect the image quality, by stretching and distorting it too much? If that's the case, is 4K worth it?

I'm thinking of building a new Desktop, and I was asking around to see if the 4K setup was worth it. I'm also thinking of playing VR games, and the setup should support that.

EDIT: Yes the TV is 4K 60Hz HDR Pro

ultimately, it depends on what games you're aiming for. 4k can be doable, but high/ultra settings at 4k60 will demand a powerful gpu. VR is already taken care of that point

I would play like F1, Project Cars, Assassins Creed, GTA V... something like that.

I'm thinking of GTX1070 or 1070ti from NVIDIA, or a RX 580 from AMD. Don't know actually what is the best in terms of quality/price.
