Hoping to find a good deal on Black Friday for a monitor. Built my first PC this year and want to upgrade. I use it for gaming.
I have a GtX 970 and can maybe swing $300 but hoping to find a good deal on Black Friday or I am willing to buy refurbished or something.
Anyway what are the basics?
I know 4k is out of the question. I always thought I would need 1440p 144hz Monitor but I have read bad things about 1440p. Saying it causes FPS loss compared to 1080p and with my 970 I think what is the point of 1440p? Seems counter productive.
Why get a 144hz monitor if I am going to have frame loss? Maybe 1080p 144hz would be better?
Not sure what else I should know, monitor noob here just looking for some info to narrow down my choices.
