Monitors for a 1080Ti

[Burgham 18]

Hey guys,

 

So a little over a month ago I built a brand new beastly rig. I have a Ryzen 7 1700 Base Speed, 16GB DDR4 RAM at 2800 speed, and finally (Most Importantly too) a 1080TI. My question for you guys is what would you recommend for a monitor, higher resolutions or higher refresh rates? I would love to play 4K on this build, but maybe 1440P with 144HZ refresh may be better overall. I'm currently using a 1080 monitor from my old setup, but this isn't good enough, I need to go bigger. So higher resolution or higher refresh rates? 1440p and ultrawide even? I really need help. Anyone with experience and also other 1080Ti owners, please post what you would recommend for me to get.

It depends on what you prefer. I'd personally go with a 1440p 144hz display over 4K 60hz. Framerate dominates resolution.

1440p@120hz+ for main monitor

4k@60hz for side monitors for the screen real estate

 

This is what I have and I like the setup, 4k just requires too much power at this point in time, you'll notice a bigger difference w/ 120hz+.

sean already hit the nail on the head 1440@144hz.
