I mean, I won't lie to you, with a 760 your FPS will suffer a lot if you switched to 1920x1080. Here's a review that compares 1680x1050, 1920x1200, and 2560x1600 with a whole range of graphics cards: http://www.techspot.com/review/734-battlefield-4-benchmarks/page2.html

With a lot of people making the switch to 2k and 4k, I think 1080p is usually considered the minimum, but it's your money, you can do whatever you want. :) If it were me I would at least go for 1680x1050 which will still get better fps than 1920x1080. Your fps will drop some, yes, but according to that review, you'll still get 40 fps in Battlefield 4 on Ultra with 4xMSAA/HBAO with a 760. I would prefer 40 fps on a 1680x1050 over 90 on a 1366x768, but again, that's just...
Horizontal Refresh Rate: 24~83 KHz
Vertical Refresh Rate: 50~75 Hz

According to Newegg. Not a monitor expert by any means so I'm not sure as to which number you're supposed to go by, but those are the specs. Just curious, what are you using this monitor for?
 
yaya i have already found Horizontal Refresh Rate & Vertical Refresh Rate & cant tell which one says the refreshrate amount . i mean a Monitor's general refresh rate amount 😀

well i think it might be Vertical Refresh Rate: 50~75 Hz ( from up to bottom ) right ?
 
60hz is not that cool . some people can actually see the difference between 60 & 75hz ... by the way all of my games run higher than 60fps . so why always see only 60fps of it 😀 ?

got another question ... im so satisfied with my 1360x768 monitor because thats a pretty low res & i dont need a wow setup to run it . but only thing that bothers me is 60hz refresh rate .

i have GTX 760 + i5 3470 ... do you think i better stick to the 1360x768 monitor ( which gets all of my games to run maxedout with gr8 fps ) ? or go for 1600x900 ?

will that cost me 20fps drop ? or that will be unnoticeable upgrade ?

 
What games are you playing? With that set up you can probably play most games at 1920x1080 and still be fine, unless you want to run things like Battlefield 4 or Assassin's Creed 4 on Ultra with a constant 60+ fps.
 
NOoooo 😀 sorry but i really dont need 1920x1080 its too much for me . ya i do play BF 4 & Metro LL & ... & with my Current res . i can Get 90fps maxedout ( by the way i turn off SSAA in metro LL but maxout the rest ) thats why i get 90 - 120 FPS all the time . & im so damn sure its because of my res being at 1360x768 . i feel 1600x900 will eat half of my FPS :[ . i dont even think about 1920x1080 because i really really dont need that much :)

Not sure if it's something you would consider, but if you upgraded to even a GTX 770, your fps would almost always be 60+ with max settings on BF4, even at 1920x1080. It would usually be in the 80s-90s, while very rarely dropping into the 50s during a big explosion or something.
 
Oh thanks bro . ya i know things look nicer on higher res . but i really care about FPS & other settings than Res 😀 . so i think i gonna stick to the 1360x768 or 1440x900 ...

by the way 1440x900 is so COOL too . gives the look of 1600x1200 . but i still have this little problem in choosing a monitor . problem is not many sites tell the Refresh rate of a specific monitor . all i got from some sites are Horizontal Refresh Rate & Vertical Refresh Rate ( which you mentioned ) ... dont you think main refresh rate ( a monitor being 60hz or 75hz ) is same as Vertical Refresh Rate ?
 


I honestly don't know, sorry. Looking up vertical vs horizontal refresh rates I was able to find this formula. http://ecomputernotes.com/computer-graphics/graphics-device/how-are-refresh-rates-calculated-and-what-is-the-importance-of-refresh-rates

Using said formula, it would show that monitor having a maximum refresh rate of 98, so in all likelihood they probably have it set to 60/75 Hz, but I'm not 100% sure, that's the best I can guess with my limited knowledge of how refresh rates work.
