Two years ago I got a monitor that can run 2560 x 1440 resolution.

fucking games

Cameras that shoot 4k r expensive

>>57845249
Nope, 4k content is scared and 1440p content is virtually non-existent except vydia but you need at least an Rx 490 to really enjoy it (ie run games on max 1440p settings.

Just pirate 4k movies that's the closest you'll get

I like the Sony 4k Surfing and the the Samsung Power of Curve. Each of them are 4k and 60 fps.

Watch 4K movies. No one's making videos for a resolution that basically only exists on desktop monitors.

>>57846165
Also just in case you did not know you will be taking full advantage of your 1440p monitor by playing 4k on it. It will automatically downscale to your resolution.

>>57846165
I was at pic related a few months ago, it's pretty cool
lot more people than in that pic though

>>57845668
>He fell for the "He fell for the _____ meme" meme

You know the most worthless aspect ratio is? 21:9. Seriously, fuck those monitors. Who the fuck would buy a 21:9 aspect ratio monitor and then proceed to not be able to take advantage of anything besides some work applications. So useless for the home user.

>>57845668
1440p is fucking great
fuck 4k though 2160p is too much memeing

>>57846847
*sigh*, true

>>57846613
no way baby
im running at 2560x1080
Playing Battlefront on ultra settings, including maxed out nvidia control panel, i get around 110 fps with a GTX 980 Ti
1070 is about the same as a 980ti, sometimes worse, sometimes better
gonna need a 1080 for 1440p @ 144hz
Even then, im not sure
1440p is more than 1 million more pixels than my driver

>>57847182
different anon
but i'm using the lg 29um58-p
overclocked it to 70hz (the risk of 75hz isnt worth it)
Just like the other anon, it was probably the best purchase i've made involving my computer
i switched to this from 3 monitors, and productivity hasnt been hit, maybe a 2nd monitor could help a bit, but idk
Gaming is so amazing on it
it's just perfect

>more screen space

>>57845249
Your video player should be doing the upscaling for you.

For example in the case of anime, it's all produced sub-720p, then upscaled to TV up to 720p, then upscaled further by Crunchyroll to 1080p. You might as well just use a proper 720p release and then use a good media player to upscale up to 1440p, like you would when viewing 720p on a 1080p monitor anyway.

>>57847921
There's always middle ground
you can go for 70-75hz or 100hz

TN

>>57847948
well TN is good for gaming
but yeah, IPS is the best in general

>>57845249
videos aren't shot in 1440p normally. it's easier to find 4k videos than 1440p videos. just watch 4k videos instead, it's better than 1080p on a 1440p monitor.

>>57846847
16:9 is redundant for 4chan also youre fine with 4:3.

>>57846847
flip that shit 90°

You're not supposed to full-screen windows on larger resolutions. The main benefit is having more screen realestate so you can have more windows displaying their full content at the same time.

On my 1440p I always have a browser, an IRC window and my Discord up, tiled perfectly to display what I need without ever needing to maximize either.

Wtf you have an shitter cpu. My ti runs battlefront on 1440p 110fps maxed out.

>>57848213
well hello there 3rd world internet

>>57847917
there is no risk in 75hz..

either your scaler is capable of running it or it's not.

i used to clock my lg 29um67-p to 79hz stable

>>57848221
What do you mean?

>>57848253
that the video looks like shit in "auto" because of you low bandwidth

>>57848215
well idk, i did the test like one time
my frames are normally capped at 70 from vsync
my cpu isn't top of the line though, 8350 @ 4.6ghz

>>57848235
higher the overclock the more of a risk it is
the 29um58p has had some problems overclocking to 75hz without a 4k HDMI cable
maybe i'll do it if i get one

It's because YouTube compression, you dumb cuck

thats why op is asking for sources of 4k video that are not youtube, that compresses the shit out of everything

dont you talk to me like that on 4chan or you are gonna get it

>>57848293
There are better 1440p videos on YT, that was just to show the 1440p setting availability.

>>57848304
they will get compressed the shit out of them soon just like 720p and 1080p did

>>57848277
that picture is really a torturous situation for any video codec

also google for red camera samples

Are you retarded?
Even if you scaled it up to the same screen real estate as a 1080p, the improved image quality alone is worth the price of a 4k monitor.
I always chuckle when I see you guys boasting about how awesome the image quality on your new 40" 4k TV is when in reality its PPI is as bad as a 24" 1080p monitor.

>>57848492
this
4k really is a meme for monitors
only necessary for TVs, even then its kind of stupid

Why so salty?

Neo 1080= 4k
Neo 720= 1440p

>>57848492
Try sitting more than three inches away from the monitor.

>>57848565
vaporware? what the fuck are you talking about cuckold?

>>57846165
he's going for the curved screen meme

>>57845249
anything higher than 1080p is maximum placebo

>>57848632
not when you are playing 1080p in a 1440p monitor (looks like shit)

>>57848627
its good for 34 inch and above ultrawide monitors
thats about it

LOL looks like you got BTFO by LG and Samsung advertising memes

>>57848647
are you talking about physical size, resolution or my dick?

>>57847935
Some high quality OVAs are produced in the 9xxp range, with the most prominent example being Gundam Unicorn from 2010. Also, we've had 8-10 tv anime that were produced in 8xxp in the past 3 years iirc. But yeah, the vast majority of anime are produced in (sub-) 720p.

it is quite a large problem for me, not able to download 4k stuff, especially illegally, still, i upload what i do have, avatar is a very popular film :(

first world problems

>>57847887
I can do 100fps+ on Battlefront ultra settings on 1440p 144hz. I am 1080 sli though

>>57845249
Next time you'll avoid buying meme products. 1080p is the best resolution now, unless you're a hard-core spoiled gamer. Native content at 1440p is still rare, whereas native content at 1080p is huge.

>>57846215
>Who the fuck would buy a 21:9 aspect ratio monitor and then proceed to not be able to take advantage of anything besides some work applications.
People who don't have enough room on their desk for two monitors?

>>57846847
half the screen space is wasted even on 16:9 in 4chan tho

>>57849687
what do people even use 2 monitors for?

>>57845249

1440p is meme tier gaymen resolution.

Just stick to 1080p until 4k is affordable to prevent shitty scaling.

>>57847935
Don't keyframes (and basically anything drawn) have an infinite resolution? What's the point of producing it like that?

>>57849844
What DON'T people use two monitors for? Having a second monitor is really great even for something as simple as writing an essay when you have to use reference materials.

>>57849857
meme is an excuse for poor fucks who cant afford 1440p.
>>57849893
I use 3

>>57849857
1440p is NOT a gaymen resolution. It's great for web browsing, chatting, having multiple windows open and working, but it sucks so much power out of your graphic card that it isn't particularly recommended for video games unless you're on a high-end card.

>>57849923

I would suggest two 1080p displays for this. It offers all the room for your multiple windows and you can watch video on native resolution.

>>57849923
Anyone who bothers with a 1440p monitor likely has a high end card

>>57849906
>1440p is an excuse for poor fucks who cant afford 4k.

>>57849965
depends, you can get shitty cheap screens then you can get decent 144hz ones with gsync.

>>57849976

>unironically suggesting gsync. . .

>>57849974
No, theres no decent 4k screens out currently that dont bleed like fuck. Some of us bought 1440p until the decent 4k screens arrive next year.
Obviously you dont know much about monitors.

>>57849976
I'd venture to say the majority of gamers buy a good video card and cheap out on the monitor

>>57850022
Id agree, but you can get cheap 4k screens and 1440p ones that are awful. Theres so many on the market literally a big amount of research is a good idea before buying.
Most people do start 1080 and then venture forwards eventually.

>>57850011

Obviously not everyone has the same requirements for monitors as you do.

>>57845249

It's a tough choice, 1440p is superb for work and gaming, but upscaled 1080p videos look like shit on it.
Just download 4k, they still look decent on a 1440p.

>>57845249
1440p isnt a resolution for media, only a few youtubers will even bother and thats mostly because they are shooting in 4k and will just down scale or they are a tech enthusiast.
1440 is mostly for productivity and gaymen.
4k is the resolution the industry will use for media, why would you think 1440 would have movies and such since TVs dont even come in that resolution?
If your surprised there are few videos for it then you are a blundering idiot.

1080 upscales terribly on 1440p
720p is the best video source for 1440p display

>>57845485
it took industry 10 years to move to digital, and most of them still didn't
it's gonna take at least 15 years for them to learn how to edit it and what hardware to buy for it

what is wrong with g sync? screen tearing is horrible horrible horrible

>>57851471
it's $200 more for nothing, also I dare you to notice tearing at 120-144hz

>>57851491
there is screen tearing at 120-144hz yes.. its pretty bad too if you are comparing it to a g sync monitor.

>>57848020
I don't just game on my monitor

>>57849923
Is a 1070 considered 1440 zone for a couple of years or should I stick to 1080

>>57849893
THis. I can't imagine not having 2 monitors. I bet I could appreciate and use 3. It boosts productivity without a doubt. It's nice to have 2 excel spreadsheets on my 1440 monitor and the customer data page open on another.

Soooooo much faster to get work done.

>>57852692
I have a GTX 1070 and some games have trouble at max, so I would stick with 1080P. Though it depends on the game. Unoptimized stuff like Space Engineers struggles.

>>57853571
Could do 1440 at 60hz
