I think Ill get another 1080p monitor but with a 100+ refresh rates. 1080p monitors are nicely priced.

I wouldn't go anything less than 1440p. 4k is excessive for monitors IMO, but using a 1080p screen after you are used to 1440p is torture.

I'm afraid of this happening to me. I plan on putting dual 2k monitors on my next desktop build.

I got a huge 4k tv as my desktop pc monitor, there is finally enough space and resolution for my financial charts and documents, had to upgrade RAM to make it all run smoothly

The high resolution does make it easier to fit more on the screen at once and it also makes images appear sharper and generally better looking

Keep in mind that I have had to make do with a mostly broken thinkpad, usb keyboard, and a really old tv in the past

Gotta sit at a distance though or it strains my eyes, I think this is the most ideal pc setup I've ever had

I put a lot of thought into this because my computer has been my source of livelihood since 2018

I really don't need all these things and I kinda feel bad for having them but it does make it a lot easier to work and is good for watching movies with my bb

ive had MANY monitors in my life. Ultra wide, 1440p ultrawide, regular 1080p, etc. Not tried 4k yet but meh. And I agree 1080p at a proper size and distance is GOAT.

Unless your reaction time is greater than 1% of the population 240 will not benefit you over 144.
