But guys, fellas, we need to talk about 1440p, because I’m not so sure it is the sweet spot for everyone anymore, and in today’s video I’m going to try and convince you to move to 4K for your next monitor, even if you think your PC can’t handle it. And in order to do that first we need to establish the difference between these common resolutions and why you might or might not have cataracts. So like many of you I started off with 1080p yyyyuck which is 1920x1080 or 2,073,600 pixels From there most gamers will move to 1440p which is 2560x1440 or 3,686,400 pixels (77% more) And then the crazies like me have moved on to 4K which is 3840x2160 or 8,294,400 pixels (4x 1080p or 2.25x 1440p) And therein lies the first reason I’m twisting my BLANK and gnashing my teeth at 1440p. Sure it’s a big jump over 1080p which looks very pixelated, but in my opinion it operates in this goofy ah middle ground where it’s not pixelated, but it still looks very blurry to me regardless of how large or small the screen is. And only once you reach 4K do games really start to look crisp and clear, and at 8K it looks nearly perfect, but I think we can all agree native 8K is definitely a waste of resources in 2023. But speaking of native that brings me to the second reason I just don’t really like 1440p anymore and this has everything to do with upscaling. All modern GPUs have access to upscaling technologies like DLSS, FSR, or XeSS which allow us to render a much lower res and then output to our native resolution without much loss in quality (at least when it's done well) and with almost all new games having one of these options, and considering that not only does it work much better on higher resolution screens, but even rendering at 1080p and upscaling to 4K looks much better than native 1440p in my opinion, it begs the question. What’s the point of 1440p? Now sure for all you pro gamers native resolution will always be best so you can eliminate any possibility of ghosting or artifacting, but for everyone else honestly… what the BLANK are we doing here? I mean I even ran 4K games reasonably well on a mobile RTX 4050 with upscaling and reduced settings, so again I have to ask from a quality perspective is there really a good reason to stick with 1440p, and I think the answer for many will be no. And with the trend of all media like games with high resolution assets, movies, streaming services, consoles, TVs, ect all having 4K as the standard, it feels really bizarre to be left behind on PC which funnily enough can be the most powerful platform. And I think you have to consider that not just gaming benefits from a higher resolution. Everything you do on PC will immediately look better and from a utility perspective can make working easier. For example it’s much easier to get high quality screenshots or recordings on a 4K image than 1440p. But before you start yelling, as I mentioned at the beginning, yes there is still at least one good reason to consider 1440p and it's a big one. Price. Let’s face it, good 4k monitors are not only more expensive, but if you're set on running max settings it’s also going to require a more expensive GPU especially for games that don’t support upscaling. Now my opinion is 4K with lower settings looks much better than 1440p with max settings, but not everyone is going to agree, so that’s why even though I personally wouldn’t run 1440p in today i’m definitely going to continue to review 1440p monitors, especially since they tend to have higher refresh rates at lower prices.
