Hello.
I read a lot, what is the best monitor, some for a high number of frames per second, others for resolution, since the game still drops FPS to 30-40 frames per second when there are a lot of units.
I chose six options, which is the best for our favorite game ?:
2560х1440 240fps
3840x2160 144fps
3440x1440 200fps
3840x1600 175fps
5120x2880 60fps
8K resolution, 7680x4320 60fps very interesting, but not very cheap.
Your`s opinion?
The issue is not with your monitor but with your CPU. There’s exactly zero point to get a high refresh rate monitor in a RTS. It’s only useful for games likes shooters.
I would say 4K 144Hz is the best. SC2 is a competitive game but it does not depend on frame rates that much: 60FPS is well enough for average players. Also, SC2 does not need a powerful GPU - a GTX 1050 would be sufficient for 4K all ultra at 60 FPS. The real cause for lost frames is your CPU cannot keep up. Even with a Core i9-9900K overclocked to 5.0GHz you would still drop to 30-40 frames under complex situations like 4v4 late game all maxed army and heavy battle.
Thanks to all. I know - for SC2 need only 1-2 cores CPU but maximum performance. My new rig have got 1080TI, and i only waiting 9900KS.
My choose about monitor - 4K144.
Again thank you and good day.
Dell UP3218K is an 8K monitor for professional works like video and photo editing. This is the only ‘monitor’ as far as I know since other 8K screens are more like TVs.
