So im currently eyeing for a new monitor

Im stuck between a

1440p 144hz IPS monitor

Or a

1080p 144hz IPS with Gsync "curved"

 

I have a GTX1080 in my system

 

Suggestions are appreciated

id say 1440p 144Hz but dont expect to max every game at that resolution and get 144fps

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

Well if it's out of the 2, then obviously the 1440p G-sync, curved monitor

First U wont need a Gysnc with 144hz monitor as long u limit your framerate to 143fps its gonna be tearing free..

No, thats not how tearing works. Frames without Gsync are not sent to the display in set intervals.

Uh.... no

 

Which monitors exactly are you deciding in between?

If the 1080p 21:9 G-Sync is 34"/35" then no, no.

Uhh mind explaining it a bit more?

I thought if ur display can display them frames then it will be tearing free

So if you have a 144hz monitor the monitor updates 144 times a second at set intervals.

If you have 143-144 FPS ingame (its only an average remember) some frames can be really close together and other can be far apart, so the display can still tear (though not that often).

 

Make sense?

Get the 1440p 144Hz IPS monitor, but it depends on size of the moitor and the second resolution
