Solid video.

He does focus primarily on gaming though. If you ONLY use your computer for gaming, he has a good point. If you also do work on your computer and/or you're not a truly competitive gamer (e.g. you're older than 30? ;), you want 4K, and just live with a sub-optimal refresh rate IMO.

I kick my monitor over to 4k when I'm doing photo editing otherwise I'm happy with 1080p most of the time.
