Most people who want better than a 1080p experience move to 1440p. It gives you better detail and your GPU can still push higher frame rates than you would get on a console - in the case of this monitor you can get 165fps @1440p. You can still access much better levels of detail than you can get on a console version of the same game, and with a 27" display you get the benefit of higher pixel density which makes the display look more detailed and photorealistic. Also, if you can't get as high as 165fps (most systems won't all the time) then the freesync/gsync will make sure the picture has no screen tearing and feels responsive. I have games that sit between 90-120fps depending on what they are rendering and it just feels very solid (newer consoles have this if you have a VRR TV to utilise it but in most games this is to keep it feeling smooth when the framerate drops below the maximum of 60fps - there are some 120fps games out there on console but they lose detail to reach 120).
I have a PC with a 3060ti @ 1440p and a series X on a 4K TV. I enjoy both but the benefits of a PC go beyond matching the 4K output from a console - some games on console will render in a lower resolution then upscale to 4K or limit the framerate on the higher detail mode - Hogwarts legacy does this with a 30fps framerate cap on the ray traced fidelity mode. On PC you can run that mode at a higher FPS with a higher level of detail at 1440p. (edited)

I use mine mostly for video and photo editing. For anyone else wanting to do the same, it's probably worth mentioning that while the factory calibration is fairly OK for single screen use, you'll probably need to manually tweak things a little to get a matching pair of screens performing identically to each other. Also, you'll probably want to turn off HDR if using it for desktop application work, as the adaptive brightness introduces a level of variability you won't really want for editing.
With HDR switched off and the screens manually calibrated, these screens are insanely good for what you're paying.
Absolutely stunning screen, 165hz, G-Sync & USB-C capable.
If you can stretch a little further, it's well worth the extra money.
How much little further?
what you on about?
The quality is amazing, lots of ports, great size, and so on, but this gave me horrible eye strain. I played around with the settings and also calibrated it with that website mentioned earlier but every time I used it, within minutes, I'd get a horrible headache because my eyes were hurting. In the end, I returned it and went back to an old 1080p monitor. I mean, it could've just been my eyes, I'll admit that, but this has never happened to me before with any screen. Hard to describe just how immediate the eye strain was.
(Installed monitor driver and latest gpu drivers)
Ie 4k at 60fps. Even though ps5 has QHD support but not VRR.
So its best to get 1080p monitor or 4k monitor that does 120fps and vrr enabled.
Correct me if I'm wrong. Ta
