Good day to everyone. This is my first post to these forums. I very recently placed my order for a new custom built PC and I am very excited but I am in need of some major advice at to what display to purchase for my rig. First of all my specs are:
Case
COOLERMASTER HAF 912 PLUS MID TOWER GAMING CASE
Processor (CPU)
Intel® Core™i7 Six Core Processor i7-6800K (3.4GHz) 15MB Cache
Motherboard
ASUS® X99-A: ATX, USB 3.0, SATA 6 GB/s
Memory (RAM)
32GB HyperX SAVAGE DDR4 2666MHz (4 x 8GB Kit)
Graphics Card
8GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 1080 - DVI, HDMI, 3x DP - GTX VR Ready!
1st Hard Disk
1TB Samsung 850 EVO 2.5" SSD, SATA 6Gb/s (upto 540MB/sR | 520MB/sW)
Power Supply
CORSAIR 850W RMx SERIES™ MODULAR 80 PLUS® GOLD, ULTRA QUIET
Processor Cooling
Corsair H80i V2 Hydro Series High Performance CPU Cooler
Sound Card
Creative Sound Blaster Z 5.1 PCI-E Soundcard - OEM
Wireless/Wired Networking
WIRELESS 802.11 AC1750 1,300Mbps/5GHz, 450Mbps/2.4GHz PCI-E CARD
Operating System
Genuine Windows 10 Home 64 Bit - inc DVD & Licence
So I need to get a monitor (and keyboard and mouse but Razer will cover those as I've used them before). My question is a the title says it it worth getting a 4K monitor or a better spec 1080p monitor. I'm thinking of gsync in particular as I've read very good things on this.
I'm in real need of suggestions and opinions. If I go 4K and eventually games struggle to run at 4K can a 4K monitor run games in 1080p to improve performance or will they look rubbish.
Would a better 1080p monitor still look great anyway at around the 24-27" range.
I just need any and all available advice really. Sorry for the essay. Hope to hear some cool things
