gollark: I mean, 1080p might be *usable*, at 1kHz.
gollark: Or 8K 144Hz.
gollark: 4K 240Hz is the best way.
gollark: You see, it is said "oh, if you use a 144Hz/240Hz/5PHz/2K/4K/10000/GSync monitor you'll never want to go back", and "oh, it's totally noticeable immediately", which means if I'm ever exposed to one I'll realise that every moment of entertainment I got from my old monitor was but a farce.
gollark: Unless I see a 144Hz monitor and immediately become forced to use one forever.
