ir remote

Hey, I recently bought a Universal IR remote that can control anything that uses an IR receiver nad I had this idea about turning on my pc using IR receiver plugged into my Motherboard Power Switch. The questions are... will it work? does what do i need to do that kinda thing? and also do you...

I am about to upgrade my monitor. Still undecided if I should consider 1440p high refresh rate instead of another 4k 60hz monitor(28" tn to t 32"ips). I have notice the difference between 30hz and 60hz is very obvious. Now is the the magnitude of the difference similar or greater between 60Hz...
