Typically, 2560×1440 resolution is represented as 1440p, 2K, or QHD (WQHD on widescreen monitors). This resolution is characterized by offering almost double (x1.7, specifically) pixels than 1080p (FHD) resolution. It is an intermediate resolution between 1080p and 4K resolution (3840×2160).
Monitors in this range are priced in between the two resolutions and are therefore more affordable than 4K monitors. Also, the hardware required to play a game at QHD resolution is less for a 120Hz refresh rate (for example) than it is for 4K resolution at the same refresh rate.
Samsung Odyssey G5 LC27G55TQBUXEN
As the first option (and the best for quality/price) we have this Samsung monitor. This monitor is characterized by having a 27 inch VA panel, which is not the best type of panel on the market, but offers good quality. It also offers us a 144 Hz refresh rate and a response time of 1ms.
One of the strengths of this monitor is that it integrates the AMD FreeSync Premium technology. This technology “synchronizes” the refresh rate with the FPS rate that the graphics card can offer. This eliminates flickering and tearing effects in the image, as well as other graphical problems that could occur. It includes HDR support, to have a superior image quality.
Regarding connectivity, this monitor has an HDMI 2.1 and a DisplayPort 1.4. There is not excessive connectivity, but in general terms it should be more than enough.
If we had to buy a new monitor, we would choose this Samsung Odyssey G5. You can buy it at:
ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQ
We turn to this ASUS monitor that belongs to the TUF Gaming range, which has established itself as a great option that balances performance, quality, and price. Does this monitor use a 27-inch IPS type panel, which is one of the best options on the market. It offers us a response time of 1 ms and a refresh rate of 165 Hz.
Something interesting about this monitor is that it receives the NVIDIA G-Sync Compatible certification. This means that it has passed NVIDIA’s minimum standards, but does not carry the additional hardware that the higher certification grade requires.
On the other hand, it is also compatible with AMD FreeSync, so we will enjoy the best image quality regardless of the manufacturer of the graphics card.
Let’s go with the connectivity, which in this case is quite good. It has a DisplayPort 1.2 and two HDMI 2.0, as well as a headphone jack.
This is a very good monitor, which will offer us a superior graphic experience.
