Is this true about resolution in gaming

[MiloshDr]

For example you have a 1480p resolution but your games can only run a good fps on 1080p.

Is it true that a 1080p monitor playing the game will still looke better than the 1480p monitor that turned its resolution down to 1080p?

You may run into touch of blurry image due to how pixels scale down from high 1440p to 1080p, lot of people says its barely noticeable. I don't have one to test it on my own.

You can also run at 720p- which is exactly half the 1440p, so no blurriness due to pixels is introduced. With antialiasing it might look better and run faster than 1080p, worth a try.

Upscaling factor from 1080p to 1440p is bad, thus it will be blurry.
You can reduce the blurryness a bit by using AA.
Yes, it does not look that good, playing 1080p on 1440p monitor, but I do it too in order to get better fps.
Yes, it is blurry but not as bad as you think or as what people say.

BTW:
720p is not 1/2 of 1440p resolution but 1/4.
