Frequently Asked Questions

What monitor resolution should I buy?

1080p (1920×1080) is the budget-friendly choice, ideal for competitive gaming where high frame rates matter more than sharpness. 1440p (2560×1440) is the sweet spot in 2026 — noticeably sharper than 1080p at 27 inches, and runs well on mid-range GPUs. 4K (3840×2160) is for professional photo/video work or premium gaming with a high-end GPU.

What refresh rate do I need for gaming?

144Hz is the baseline for smooth gaming. 165–170Hz is common at 1440p and a meaningful upgrade from 60Hz. 240Hz+ is for competitive shooters where every millisecond counts. For non-gaming use, 60Hz is completely fine. A 144Hz 1440p monitor is the best all-round choice for most gamers.

IPS vs VA vs OLED — which panel type should I choose?

IPS panels offer accurate colors and wide viewing angles — best for photo/video work and general gaming. VA panels have higher contrast (deeper blacks) but narrower viewing angles — good for movies and dark environments. OLED has the best contrast and response times but costs more and may have burn-in risk. For most gamers, IPS at 144Hz+ is the best value.
