I’m about to purchase a dell 1440p 144hz monitor but the hardware I’m using really can’t push 1440p I want to future proof myself am I going to have any scaling issues if I turn the settings down to 1080p

Scaling should work just fine. What specs do you have?

 

Personal opinion: future-proofing indidual components isn't the most economical strategy. I think monitors are evolving really quick right now, so by the time you are able to push better graphics, you'll get much better value on new equipment. only exception is maybe leaving DIMM slots empty for a later upgrade or pairing a low end cpu with a capable mobo and swapping for high end same platform CPU later.

 

I would leave windows settings at native resolution and change rendering settings in the games

I’m currently using a gaming laptop as my “desk top” it has a i7-9750h and a 2060 it’s not bad it runs whatever I want to play at 1080p with absolutely no issues but obviously I’m not going to be running 1440p in any kind of of competitive game I play.
