Hello, I am posting hoping for some enlightment for a purchase decision...
Right now I am usinga 1080p 144hz benQ monitor, its fantastic for gaming but I also have a fully maxed out mac pro 5,1 tower that I use for music production. I REAAAAALLY want to get 4k going for that mac tower. And I would love to have 4k desktop resolution on my PC too, but I really don't want to give up the high refresh rate that I have with the PC gaming.
Like most people, once you get a taste of 100hz+ refresh rates its hard to go back. I don't even care about gaming in 4k much (would be nice to try but no big deal), but if I buy a 4k monitor I am basically capped at 60hz refresh rate no matter what resolution I am in.
Ideally, I would love a 4k monitor that can do 120hz at 1080p, and 60hz at 4k. It would serve both purposes as a gaming monitor and music production monitor. Any suggestions what I can do to get the best of both worlds ? its almost like I need two seperate monitors but I simply do not have room for two monitors here.
Its annoying having to wait for 120hz 4k monitors when I have no intention of doing anything at 120hz in 4k resolution.
Any advice/help/ideas appreciated.
