[SOLVED] 144hz vs 2k monitor

[Onl1X]

I have rx 580 8gb. Which monitor should I buy? 144hz(1080p) vs 2k(60hz or 75hz)

Is that 144Hz at 1080p? What refresh does the 2160p run at? What games?

144hz monitor is at 1080p and 2k is at 60hz or 75hz. I don't play shooting games like cs go or rainbow six siege, but sometimes I play games like world war z, snowrunner, dying light, red dead redemption 2.

Hmmm. How's your eyesight? If your eyesight isn't great, reading HUDs at 2160p may be an issue (but they can usually be scaled).
I suggest you actually game on both before your purchase. I am biased towards 2160p but it would have to be at least 120Hz.

Maybe stay with what you've got for another couple weeks/months till you can afford a good 2160p 120Hz monitor...?
