I am on a 3080 (with a 1440 monitor). I am considering a monitor upgrade (current one is 75 Hz max), but I have no interest in a new GPU or moving to 4K (for now).
The 3080 might be the perfect card for high refresh rate 1440p gaming, so I’d definitely recommend the upgrade. My main monitor is a 175hz 1440p oled ultrawide, which my 4080 handles decently well, but definitely wouldn’t wanna go 4k on it since I’d have to turn settings down a lot more, even for just a stable 60 fps.
I have a few requirements for my next monitor, since I want it to last a long time:
Micro-led, since it’ll have the benefits of oled without much risk of burn-in.
4k, because if I’m gonna have it for 10 or more years, I want it to look as good as possible, and 4k is very future-proof.
Superwide, because I want to replace my three monitors with just the one, as multi-monitor support isn’t great.
There will probably be 4k micro-led TVs long before there are monitors, but I don’t want a TV as it’s just terrible ergonomics for use on a desk.
