I've noticed a very little difference between 1366x768 and 1920x1080. Im gaming on my 1080p tv ringht now, but would like to buy a monitor because we will move the tv to a different area in our house 🙁. Im seeing 20$ 768p monitors and 40$ 900p tho. Should I go for the 900p?

Note: I also watch alot of 1080p movies

Specs:

G4400
h110m c3d
gtx 1050 2gb
8gb ddr3
 
If you don't see a difference between the two resolutions, I might consider the lesser resolution because it will let your card make more frames. I personally see a huge difference between 720 and 1080 P, so you have a potentially money saving gift 😉
 


how much is the performance difference between 768p 900p 1080p?

My games: CSGO, Batman Arkham Knight, Overwatch, Gta V.
 


Currently im on the bedroom gaming at 10ft away from my 46inch 1080p, but i tested it by reducing the screen size to 19 inches and sitting 3 ft away from the screen. Like i said the difference was minimal for me, but when i tested it on fullscreen back to 10ft and 46 inches, the difference was more noticable tho, so is the 900p worth it for 20$ more than 1366x768?
 
It depends what you're doing. If you're working on text documents or reading web pages, 1080p can make a huge difference in how much info you can display on the screen compared to 720p (1366x768 - don't ask me why that's 720p instead of 1280x720).

But if you're watching video (movies or playing games with minimal HUD), yeah most people can't tell the difference between 1080p and 720p. If someone argues with me about it, I like to tell them that of the four major TV networks (ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC), two broadcast in 1080i, two broadcast in 720p. If the difference is that obvious, can they tell me which is which?

ABC and Fox are 720p. CBS and NBC are 1080i.
 

My pc is for gaming and multimedia only. No documents and definitely none of those tv network cause im from not US.
 


Lol. I thought 720p would look shitier on a 1080p screen... Yet here you are saying its the opposite? Im confused...
 

Depends how well your TV scales different video sources and this depends on the TV. I'd recommend trying each monitor resolution first before making a final decision. Its going to come down to personal choice.
 


Ill probably just go for 900p, 1080p movies will benefit from it too...
 

Monitors don't have the same scaling built in that most TV's do. You should try it first
 


Welp, I just found a cheap "1080p" monitor but its not quite 1080p, its 1280x1024, will the reduced horizontal view be a deal a breaker?

(EDIT) Nvm. Just found its 4:3 not 16:10... SAD.
