1440P(144HZ) TN VS 1080P(120hz)/4k(60)

Hello everyone, I am Canadian and do not want to order online. So I am stuck with memory express. There are two monitors I'm stuck between. 

 

4k:

1440p:

I play a lot of games so I need the 100+ refresh rate. However I'm stumped because the ViewSonic I can have beautiful ips4k visuals then switch to 1080P and get the 120hz. 

 

So I guess my question is what looks better. 1440pTN vs a 1080ips panel. 

 

Also the tn panel has 1ms response time, and the other has 5ms. Not entirely sure if we can percieve the difference but throwing that out there. ALSO the 4k display is 27 inches and the 1440p is 24". So I know pixel density is important but don't know much about it. 

 

If the 4k monitor could do 120hz at 1440p then I'd probably get that one.

Haha "need". No one needs 100mhz refresh rates :P

Never believe quoted response times, they're very very rarely accurate.

 

Personally I'd go with the 4k, mostly because 1440p on a 24" panel is a little too small IMO.

 

What do you have against ordering online? Seems like an odd stance to take.
