Hi everyone,
I'm basically just looking for some opinions here, I'm putting together a new build, with an RTX 4080. Spent a pretty big chunk of change on components, but I know the final piece will be a new monitor to go with it. I'm currently running 2 1080 monitors I figure I'll keep 1 as a secondary and replace the other.
My questions is 4k at 60hz or 2k at 144-165. I'm curious how noticeable of a difference there really is as monitors in that range are similar in priced, or is it really worth the extra $200-$300 just get the 4k at 120-144. I know it might seem a little odd worrying about $200-$300 after going all in on the other components, but honestly it's more about value than money, If it's not going to be a hugely significant difference i might just save the money, and if it's actually noticeable then I might go for it.
I've done a bit of reading and it seems like 2K at higher refresh rate is the more popular way to go, but since there is a pretty good and active community here, I figured I'd get some feedback. I've narrowed it down to a few MSI or Asus monitors, Kinda leaning towards 4k at 60hz, but would like to hear what others think before pulling the trigger.
