Depends on what you are going to play on it.
If you don't play FPS shooters and you are not a little competitive. Then a 4k gsync will be the best for you for Single player games.
But if u play six siege, csgo, pubg etc then probably 1440p 144hz. Do note you will need a good cpu to push 144 fps at a constant rate.

Which 4k monitor do you have in mind and from will you buy it? I'm planning on buying one as well.

Jayzzy bhai I would rather wait till they're officially released but if I were you, I'd rather go for the 1080 ti at this time. Why? the whole ray tracing thing kinda seems like a gimmick to me just like how they hyped up physx back in the day plus it is not supported by most of the current games out right now and we don't have an exact idea about how much faster it will be than the current gen. After the launch, you can pick up a 1080 ti even cheaper since I think you're in the UK right now

Like the member posted above and I'd just wait for actual benchmarks (some reliable ones like TPU, Guru3D and a few more) and physically launch on storefront. We still not sure/seeing if Ray-Tracing (of greater significance) is even optimized for RTX 2xxx GPUs or not. Its pretty early to make decision on this upgrading, especially when the price difference is more than 40% over beastly performer, Pascal.

I would suggest you to buy ultrawide 3840x1440 setup, it is a top more productive and sexy for gaming movies and productivity while only downside being 16:9 videos will have black bars on it.

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
