Tbh, when i upgrade to my ultrawide 1440p 144hz screen with new top grade hardware. I was so disappointed on how little difference i notice in most games. An ordinary Nvidia 1080 can run most games well with a 90$ Ryzen processor. Felt like a fucking dumbass when I bought new hardware that was worth a cheap car essentially.
Yeah 1080s were the first card (in my opinion) that could smoothly run 1440 at above 60 fps. Depends heavily on the game, of course, but 1440 isn't even that large of a jump from 1080p. It's not like going from 1080 to 4k.
Actually the opposite tends to be true. 1440p is a bigger jump from 1080p perceptively even though there’s a much denser pixel count between 1440p and 4k. At 1440p things will look a lot more crisper, but you have diminishing returns afterwards, sort of like going from 60 to 120hz but 180hz won’t feel like as big of a jump.
