Running 1080p on 4k upclose monitor?

[xaerux]

I am wondering if running games on a 4k monitor is beneficial because of the pixel density.

Running games on a 1080p resolution, but on a native 3480x2160 on the desktop.

I want to get G-Sync because I have a Nvidia 1060 6GB and want to upgrade later to a 1080TI.

Just got this card, but would like a better monitor before the next card. Should I aim for 144hz, or like 120hz 4k 3480x2160 native?

Should I even worry about G-sync when aiming for graphics, or worry about refresh more? I would like a more seamless experience, but more beautiful if possible.

Look friend, Monitors are made different and there are very specific models for a reason.
If you are going to run 1080p at a 4k monitor its Overkilling the 4k Monitor.
If you are going on to play at 60Hz and at 1080p a standard monitor its more than OK to fullfil that.
I'd say that it depends on the games you actually like. If you are an FPS player you should aim for a 144hz at 1080p since Refresh rate its quite very important and its a huge improvement in therms of reacting first.
If you are an RTS player you should aim for a 4k Monitor since you will be able to play at a very high resolution and able to command the troops way better.
In my personal Opinion having the most graphic quality experience for me much depends on both... So i bought the asus one that says : Fuck everything (in case you wondering its the : ROG SWIFT PG27UQ )
So... as i said, in order to keep your wallet safe i would recommend you to ask yourself. What kind of games do i play and how can i get the most adventage on it by changing the monitor.
Oh and btw, you need a PC able to handdle the struggle between Quality and Quantity of fps...
So if you are going to go on the ASUS ROG SWIFT PG27UQ you need a pc able to play at 4k at 144 fps or more. Sorta... like my signature.
But with a single 1080 the best you can aim for its 4k res at 60hz or 144hz at 1080p...
