Not from what I have seen. It doesn't scale evenly like 4k, so sometimes the image just looks weird(blurry, lines stand out, etc.). There is a term for this but I forgot it.

*Risky click of the day*

video no(well kinda depending on bitrate), gaming it's a SUPER intensive way to do Anti Aliasing, so yes a bit. cranking AA will work beter unless you have lots of GPU horsepower and only a 1080p monitor..

No it looks like crap becuse it's not a multiple of 1080p. 1440p only looks good at 720 down scaled

I was forced to do this for a few days since I had to take apart my desktop and my laptop only supports up to 1080p. You don't want to do it. It looks wierd and blurry. Native 1080p looks better than 1440p downsized to 1080p. 

My personal rig - 4790k 4.8Ghz, Asus Z97 Pro (wi-fi ac), Corsair Dominator Plat 4x8GB, SLI GTX 1080 TI FE, Samsung 850 Evo 1TB, Crucial MX100 512GB, EVGA G3 1000W, and cooled by a hardline liquid cooling loop.

Ok

 

The main reason I'm asking if cause obviously Youtube and like all other video hosting sites support 1080p and nothing higher. So not really a point in me recording my games on my 1440p monitor, just stick to 1080p
