This is a little bit of a read but I'll explain. I'm in a little bit of a pickle. I'm planning a build that I'm going to build in a week or two, and was going to get a 1070, in respects to graphics as I currently have a 770. However due to the price increases I might be swindled into getting a 1080. The cpu I will get is the i5 7600k
Now I'm doing more thinking and considering the 1080ti, as it seems to be able to ultra at 4k or high settings, and that's all I'll need for the next few years. I'm not trying to throw more money at it for a while, probably at least 3 to 4 years I do t want to have to upgrade it. So with that logic the 1080ti makes sense.
Here's my second concern. I need a monitor to use it with. I have a regular 1080p monitor that I'm Trying to replace anyway. I also have a Vizio e series 55' 4k tv. Due to the response times and such the tv wouldn't be my main display but I'd use it for the HDR and 4k.
So now that I need a new screen I have to decide what to get. I'm deciding between a 1440p 144hz or a 4k monitor. Obviously there are more factors to consider for the screen and that's why I want your opinions. A 4k gaming monitor with nice refresh is a little pricey to pair with the 1080ti and might not even be worth it because if the resolution at a sub 30" monitor. What would you do?
Also if you have any recommendations that would be nice. Really trying to not spend more than 400 max on a screen
