Hey, I need to update my monitor and would like some recommendations. The PC I'm using are used both for work and gaming. Should I go for a 2560x1440 or a 1080p monitor if I want to target 120ish refresh rate?

The games I mostly play are Elite Dangerous, Microsoft Flight Simulator as well as BG3 and older titles

The demands I have for the monitor is low latency, high refresh rate, around 27 in size.

HW specs:

Radeon RX 6700

16 GB RAM

Ryzen 5 3600

The RAM and CPU is being upgraded around Christmas.

Thanks a lot in advance

If I were you, I'd look into something like the HP Reverb G2 that has inside-out tracking (no external cameras or lighthouses). The immersion you get with VR is way beyond anything you can get from a screen.

My full setup a Vive Pro 2 with a VKB HOSAS setup and a YawVR 2, and it feels spectacular, though getting interdicted the first time almost made me piss myself.
