Questions?
Is 1440p worth it over 1080p on a 27 in monitor?
Yes for most people: text and games look noticeably sharper at 27 in.
OLED or IPS?
OLED gives perfect blacks and very fast response; IPS is brighter for static work and has no burn-in risk.
What refresh rate do I need?
144 Hz or more is the sweet spot for PC gaming; consoles top out at 120 Hz.
Does response time matter?
Lower is better for motion clarity, but makers measure it differently, so compare within one brand when you can.
