Gaming 2560x1440 on a 4k display

33% say: "it's blurry and doesn't look as good as native 1440 maybe more like a really nice 1080 display."
33% say: "1440 on a 4k display looks like trash, absolute crap, native 1080 looks better, it's unplayable!"
...and then some random dude (the final 1%) comes along and tells me: "I bet none of these people has ever tried it, I bet they're just repeating stuff they read somewhere". Ahhh!
Well, it is true that most people haven't tried it Most people have experience running non-native at lower resolutions (like 1080p on a 1440p monitor, or 720p on a 1080p monitor) and then decide "well that looked terrible, so 1440p on 4K must look terrible too!"
Yes, 1440p on a 4K screen will be blurrier than 1440p on a native 1440p display. But the higher resolution you go, the less noticeable it becomes. If you are trying to read fine text, it won't be so good, but in gaming I don't think it's a big deal. Playing 1080p on a 1440p screen... pretty blurry. But 1440p on a 4K screen, honestly, isn't really that bad. At least to my eyes.
