New Monitor Advice

[kevbiss1]

Hello, Just recently got a GTX1660 TI and now looking to upgrade
my viewing from a TV to a monitor.
Around £300 - 350 is my max budget.
Looking at my hardware what would you advise, I would like to go 2K
and 144HZ but I know my card would struggle a little,
but I wanna try a higher resolution and more frame would be nice
Im only a casual gamer nowadays (mainly FPS) but still like pretty graphics
and smooth gameplay.

Thanks , Kev

Hi

You should be good for 60fps at 2k with most fps with high settings enabled i would say and from looking at videos like this on YouTube with a similar setups
to yours will give you an idea of what to expect in terms of frames.

While your not going to max your monitor out with that card you will still notice the extra smoothness a 144hz monitor gives and the extra desktop space at 2k is nice too have.

Something like this would be ideal.

Thanks for the links, very helpful,the monitor looks just great, looks like lots of experimenting
with settings, which should keep me entertained for a while !!
