IS the 1440p 144hz?

[yannickverc]

What are your specs? (specially GPU)

[Xenift]

As low as possible unless you are running a gtx 980/Ti.

 

My opinion tho.

260x for 1440p will struggle a bit....

1440p for gaming and general home/office stuff. 4K for (most only future-proofed) video consumption and all productive work (photo/video editing, 3D-modeling, writing and so on) But only if you have Windows 10. If you're still stuck with Win 7/8.1, don't go above 1440p. The scaling for 4K is terrible in them.

1440p 144hz

1440p, it's almost impossible to run AAA games at 60fps in 4k.

I have a 32inches 1440p monitor, it is awesome. 4k is awful in general use (office works, surfing,...).

1440p bruh

Yes im looking at a 144 one or the asus rog one with 165

Specs matter, but me personally i have used a 4k monitor for about 5 hours (give or take) and games looks nice in them, but basically a sharper version of 1080P. Not that amazing. But the UI is tiny and very few programs scale for 4K, so you have to have your face pressed up against the screen for you to be able to read it. Plus then you need so much more horse power to drive the games at 4K, I would personally recommend a 1440p monitor at 120 hz or 144hz.

Or just casual gamer?

Better get a 980ti. Way cheaper and similar performance. You can run 4K from that GPU

What is the quality difference between 4k and 1440p? is it major or not ?

[Aytex]

What is the quality difference between 4k and 1440p? is it major or not ?

Quality is very clear, heavy and different, You need a very powerful card to run 4k ultra 60 fps though
