I currently have a Samsung 27inch 1080p display and was wondering if I instead went with a 1440p will 1080p video look worse on a 1440p display rather than the 1080p I have now?

I'm not that worried because I'm very satisfied with the Samsung 1080p I have now (just got it a few weeks ago), but I was wondering about the 1440p. The only reason I want the 1440p is for video anyways, which I realize right now there's not much video in 1440p really anyways.

well, if you stretch it the quality will be lower, but you can also play it at it's original size. unless you like very clear movies it should not be an issue.
