hi all,

i have a general question and it will help me decide on my monitor purchase decision. So assuming if i get a 27inch monitor 1440p, can i set it to 1080p when playing game and will it impact the image quality with pixelation?

Because currently I am really interested to buy 27inch 1440p monitor but maybe my graphics card can only support up to 1080p for ultra high settings....so i am thinking if i should go for 27inch 1440p or just get 24inch 1080p monitor.... my preference is the 27inch...

thanks!

ERM, that dell monitor cost around rm2k right?

You sure you want to pay this amount for 1440p @ 60hz IPS? smile.gif

Somemore your graphic card is gtx970 is only good at 1080p.

It will be sweating pushing 1440p (unless you tune down the graphic settings on the games to medium or low). I suggest if you want to go 1440p with gtx970 for time being, you need G-Sync monitor so when at low fps it will help smooth'en the screen, so no tearing.

Have a good thought about it before purchase.

Any other better suggestions? Aiming for IPS... I play games and also watch movies from PC... 27in seems to be the sweet spot for me....

I am using 22in now so if I buy 24in like not really upgrade in size... tongue.gif

Haha knew it you are like me, want 27 minimum and 1440p. Do you need 144hz and gsync? Gaming very shoik wei 144hz. Kan cheong time in game you hardly miss a single move. smile.gif Aiya, just pain 1 time add a few more hundred and get acer xb271hu. If you know where to find. smile.gif
Drawback is ips glow and backlight bleed. Go test out first properly before you buy. And if possible take the display set if backlight bleed is super minimal. A brand new out from box doesnt guarentee that. Might be worst.and most time is.
