    guys pls help my old screen started flickering and I have to replace it soon. I do mostly watching movies and gaming... the two options I keep coming back to are a 27 inch 1440p high refresh and a bigger TV used as a monitor. friends are split down the middle... help me break the tie.. 🙏 bonus points if u tell me what u would do differently with your own monitor purhcase. I keep screens for years, so I would like to avoid regrets this time around. seriously need help here 😭

    ahh classic for text heavy work, pixel density matters more than size. A 27 inch 1440p or a 27 inch 4K makes text much sharper than 1080p at teh same size, which helps with long days of reading code or spreadsheets. lmk how it goes
