Sim racing and refresh rates

Hi all,

I'm pretty certain the move from 60hz to 140-144hz and beyond is hugely beneficial for FPS but how relevant is it for Sim racing? Say Assetto Corsa and Iracing.

My conundrum is stick with 1440p monitors (and a rift) or go for the first new monitor as 4K but drop back to 60hz.

My preference is rarely to revert to a lower standard but there aren't any 4k monitors that I can find that don't have 60hz refresh.

Interesting thoughts, thank you. My FOV is sorted and easily updated if and when I need to change it

I do like the idea of one ~43 or 49 ultrawide but 3 or 4 32-34" would be fine too, I have had my 1440 monitors for quite a while so the logic is partly that I'll have them for say 5 years at least especially as vr improves too and I upgrade from the rift, the other hardware will improve over the monitors lifetime so open up upgrade possibilities rather than close them down, push everything else in my system right now to it's limits, I'm running a 1660ti atm so that's my weakest link right now, I intend to change this late this year/early next all the way to 3080ti or equivalent, I see no point buying a 2080ti now.

My crazy idea is 3 49's but that's complete overkill.
