Is there any difference gaming 1440p on a 23-24inch monitor to a 27 inch

[Dneno$]

Im looking at monitors to buy.Monitors with a 1440p resolution with G sync and 144hz.I came across one of the acer predator monitors on amazon that sells a 1440p monitor but in 2 sizes. 23.8 inches and 27 inch.Is there any difference?

27 inch is bigger than a 24 inch that is the only difference.

so if i want a bigger screen i get the 27 inch. But they also sell in 1080p in both 23-24inch and 27 inch.Whats the difference in getting a 1080p 27inch monitor and a 1440p 27inch monitor.

Other than the difference in size, there is pixel pitch. That is the size of the pixels required to fill the screen with no noticeable 'dead' spots in between the pixels. If you're looking at 1440p, I would go with the 27" if you have the desktop space.

1920 x 1080 or 2560 x 1440 simply means more pixels/detail the higher the number.

1920 pixels wide x 1080 pixels high = 2,073,600
2560 pixels wide x 1440 pixels high = 3,686,400

1440 is approx 30% more pixels the 1080 so you'd get more detail and a better picture.

Therefore a 1440p monitor will require a better GPU, ruffly 30% better than a GPU a 1080p monitor would need to run a game at equal settings.

Basically, if you have a decent GPU or intend to upgrade in the near future go for the 1440p

thx for the help.I think i would go for the 1440p monitor.Since i got a gtx 1080.Most games i could hit over 100 fps and if i get lower then 60 i could always lower the graphics settings

GTX 1080 can do 1440p easy so you don't have to worry about that.

thats good to know.Im only afraid if it would affect my cs go aim though.Since im playing on a bigger screen and resolution.But im not gonna buy a smaller screen with smalller resolution just to play cs go.I play alot of other games on origin ,battle net and some other stuff

I play CS:GO at 1440p, hasn't affected my aim. Worse case if it does just lower the resolution, still have a bigger screen so peoples head will be slightly bigger lol

1.7x more pixels. Not 30% more.

You need almost twice the power.

2x the pixels doesn't mean 2x the GPU power required.

Thanks, screwed my maths up there.

2,073,600 x 1.7 = 3,686,400 and 1.7 is the same as 70%. For some reason I took 70% from 100% to get 30%. Thats the only way I can think of to explain how I got 30%........

Gonna call it a night, think my brain needs a rest ;/

Least some of what I said was right and helpful

That's why when people post up their in-game performance I always ask what res. 1440p and 1080p are worlds apart. So when a guy says "I get 100fps steady!!" "What res?" "1080p" I just laugh.

I alway ask for resolution too, see people ask for specs but resolution is often not requested. Honestly, though I should of known. Did the same (correct) calculations when I upgraded from a GTX970 + 1080p monitor to a GTX 1070 + 1440p monitor at xmas.

Could explain my reasons for screwing up, but, do benefit either way lol

I have a gtx 1080 and a intel core i5 6600k at 3.5 GHz but im thinking about getting a new and better cpu since i cant overclock my cpu with my current mother board
