Q: Do I need to have a 4K resolution display for gaming?

No, you don’t need it. It’s for people who prefer to have a sharper image quality. The sweet spot for most gamers is 1440p resolution, though even a 1080p monitor is good enough for casual gaming.

Question 1

Will a curved gaming monitor improve my performance?

Accepted Answer

Not really, no. Unlike faster refresh rates or quicker response times, having a curvature in your screen will not impact your gaming performance. It&rsquo;ll make the experience more enjoyable through a significant boost in immersion, but that&rsquo;s about it.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

No, you don&rsquo;t need it. It&rsquo;s for people who prefer to have a sharper image quality. The sweet spot for most gamers is 1440p resolution, though even a 1080p monitor is good enough for casual gaming.

Question 3

What refresh rate should my gaming monitor have?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the types of games you mainly play. High refresh rate (like 144Hz or 240Hz) monitors are only useful for first-person shooter games. If you only play campaign-focused games like Grand Theft Auto, Assassin&rsquo;s Creed, and Red Dead Redemption, you won&rsquo;t need anything over a 60Hz monitor.
