Because this is a question I can't really seem to get a straight answer on. It's possibly because there IS no straight answer, but I'm hoping there is.
I want to get a new monitor, and the only reason I'm not crossing over from 1080p to 1440p is simply due to the fact that there aren't really any 1440p+144Hz monitors that aren't extremely expensive. I want to get maybe a 24-27'', but my question is, at what point does 1080p stop looking very good? At what size of the monitor do the pixels start to stretch out rather than actually fit in the entire frame properly?
I know that monitors can see 72dpi, but I realize that that is not the same as PPI; if it were the same thing, then by doing some simple math, 28'' would be about the limit to max quality 1080p. After that, the frame would just start to stretch out too much.
So is there SOME SORT of answer out there that can explain what the max size for 1080p is? Thanks.
