I’m finally ready to make the jump to an OLED monitor. However, I’m having a very tough time deciding whether I should just stay on 1440p, or get a 4k/1080p dual mode monitor. I know my GPU isn’t gonna play all titles in 4k well, which is why I was looking at dual mode monitors so the games that it can handle I could play in 4k, and the ones it can’t I could play in 1080p. I saw a really great deal on a W-OLED one in buildapcsales today. Or would I be better off overall just getting a 1440p QD-OLED monitor? And if so, any recommendations that are at a good price right now? I’ve seen quite a few lately in that same sub and not sure what would be the best choice for the price. I’ve listed my PC/monitor specs below. I’m used to a 32" so that’s what I would prefer, but would be willing to go to 27-34" if its that much more worth it. Also the monitor having a kvm would be nice, but not necessary.
