I've recently put together a new system and got lucky and managed to get a RTX 3070 FE.
I've been rocking a benq xl2411z for my entire gaming career. It was perfect back when I used to play fps games competitively, such as CSGO.
However since I spent a good amount on a new system and the fact the RTX 3070 FE has displayport, it will not work with monitor any more. I was forced to buy an adapter in hope it will hold up the 144hz but it was hit or miss, the adapter sucks. I purchased the DELL BIZLINK DISPLAYPORT to DVI-D DUAL and when 144hz is selected text and everything seems extremely blurry, this can be somewhat fixed when I change to 120hz. So the adapter is not good enough right?
I have the funds to upgrade to a new monitor but I'm kind of scared to take the leap to 1440p. It sounds stupid but I've been using 1920x1080 for so long I'm worried if I was to get a 1440p display I won't be able to play fps games competitively like I would on my old display. What are your thoughts on a 1440p and still being able to game at a competitive level?
I've done some research and I'm finding it difficult to actually find a monitor during this current year which will be amazing. People told me it's about luck nowadays, the monitor I will buy can be broken or something straight out the box, is that true?
Here are some monitors I found, do you guys have anything better? Which of these should I go for?
5800x
Tomahawk x570
32GB RAM
RTX 3070 FE
Corsair HX 850w
