Yep...I just recently upgraded my video card to a MSI GTX 980TI Gaming 6G OC edition and figured I should also upgrade my simple 1080p, 60hz TN 27'' monitor to something much better now that I have the horsepower but I've been out of the loop on monitors that trying to decide between 4K, 1440p, 144hz, ultra wide, G-sync and curved is driving me nuts. I don't upgrade often so I really need to get this right.
I'm willing to pay up to 1k cad for a solid monitor that is an all around great performer that has a solid reputation with great reviews.
Was thinking 4k but I don't wanna saturate my video card to the point that I will need to lower settings in game so soon after upgrading LOL...so maybe I would be better off at 1440p...I really don't know. I've never had a premium monitor before....I was looking at the Asus rogue swift but the reviews on that monitor are up and down.
I will be using this monitor as an all around multi purpose monitor to play games(all genres) 40%, watch netflix 20%, HD TV 20% and surf the net at 20%
1) Is G-sync really worth the added price?
2) Does freesync work with Nvidia cards?
3) Is there really a noticeable advantage going with a 144hz display?
4) Is going 4k on a single 980ti a wise choice?
