Question Where do I go from here?

[topslop1]

I have a 32'' 1440p 144hz Samsung monitor. It's just too damn big. I've finally moved it far back enough on an 'extended' desk that I've rigged of my own doing but quickly feels 'too far away' for those long distance FPS shots but then still 'too close' to see everything. A conundrum of sorts.

2 questions: What do I replace this thing with;

27'' 1440p @ 144hz+ ?
OR
27'' 1080P @ 144hz+?

What do I do with the 32''? Where do I move / use it? Already have a TV in the living room, not sure I need a "tv" in the bedroom or this would likely be too small for that application.

Naturally I prefer 1440p over 1080p, but naturally 1440p doesn't lend itself well to fast paced FPS shooters just by virtue of drawing frames and also by how much I have to 'see' and 'process'.

What say ye crowd of genius?

27" 1080p may have pixels too big for your liking. Try before you buy if you can.. a friends house or store show room? If the PPI is what bugs you about your 32" then avoid that PPI range or you may end up just as unhappy.

I know people who run lower than native res for twitch FPSecond FPShooters. You could try that and see if you like it. Run the 1440p at full res for desktop use and run it at 720 or an intermediate res for FPS FPS.
