You already have a nice 4K 60Hz HDR monitor for your PC. Sure, it’s got enough inputs to accommodate the PC, Xbox Series X, and PS5. However, we know many upcoming games are going to target 4K 60Hz as their upper limit. That’s good for your current monitor. But many titles will also have a performance mode going for 120Hz in 1080p. The difference between 60Hz and 120Hz is palpable if you enjoy fast response and smooth gameplay. Something like the EX2510 will make for an excellent high speed 1080p monitor with its 144Hz framerate and 1ms MPRT.
This way, you can simply switch HDMI ports and have a choice between a dedicated 4K 60HZ and a FHD 120Hz display. With even launch titles for the PS5 running at “only” 1440p 60Hz, you can surmise that 4K 120Hz won’t be that common on the new consoles.
Also, if you’re a big fan of first person shooters, then a 120Hz 1080p mode will serve your reflex-based competitive needs better than a 4K 60Hz mode. After all, for multiplayer graphics are less essential than for single player campaigns, and the first big shooters of the generation are expected to offer such a choice.
Plus, 25” and 27” monitors don’t take up a lot of space, which leads us to the next point.
