Hey, this is basically a question for those who have high screen resolution, the new monitor im looking at getting has a native res of 2560×1440

Basically does anyone play at this res, if so how does your game handle, I don’t want to get a monitor that has this res if I have to force downscale to play the game as it will just look poor.

This question’s answer depends on your CPU/GPU as well. While I know very little about resolutions above 1080p (besides multi-monitor resolutions) I do know that the more pixels you have to draw, the better your hardware has to be to get a ‘smooth’ FPS.

With that said, give us your CPU and GPU models and we can give you a better idea about how your hardware will perform.

You dont really need advice just fomr those who use said res, though ofc it is helpfull, all we really need to know is what GPU ur using.
FYI
1920×1080 = 2,073,600 Pixels
2560×1440 = 3,686,400 Pixels
2560×1600 = 4,096,000 Pixels
3840x 2160 = 8,294,400 Pixels (4kHD/UltraHD)

Well, I wasn’t expecting that, you should be fine then.
