If you have followed so far, you have most likely already concluded that in terms of screen resolution, the more the better. Well, this is not necessarily the case.
When using two screens of the same size, more material will be displayed on the screen with a higher resolution, and there will be less scrolling. In addition, the image will be clearer.
However, the trade-off is that the image will also be smaller. This strains your eyes, and in extreme cases you may need to enlarge the image to see it correctly. Since you will enlarge the picture, a smaller part of it will fit on the display, you essentially use a lower one. So what's the point of acquiring a higher resolution device when you cannot use it effectively?
What are the monitor resolutions?

720p = 1280 x 720 - often called HD, “HD Ready” - 1080p = 1920 x 1080 - often called FullHD
- 2K = 2048 x 1080 - this applies to displays with a horizontal resolution of about 2000 pixels. Although close to 1080p, it is considered standard.
- 1440p = 2560 x 1440 - widespread and is called QHD or Quad HD and is mainly found in monitors for games and high-end phones. 1440p bypasses the resolution of 720p HD or “HD ready” 4 times.
- 4K or 2160p = 3840 x 2160 - also widespread and is called 4K, UHD or Ultra HD. It is huge for a standard screen, and is found in premium screens and computer monitors.
REFERENCE! 2160p is indicated by 4K due to the fact that the width is close to 4000 pixels. In other words, it produces 4 times as many pixels as 1080p FHD or Full HD.
- 8K or 4320p = 7680 x 4320 - designated 8K and produces sixteen times more pixels than the standard 1080p FHD or “Full HD”. So far, 8K is only available on expensive TVs from Samsung and LG. You can check if your computer can display such a large amount of data using the 8K video sample.
What determines the choice of resolution
You might think that even if you do not need a desperately high resolution because it is available, why not get it. There are several reasons.
The first is money. Anyway, a high-dots screen is more expensive.
The second reason is technical. Anyway, higher resolution requires more resources.
If you set the screen refresh rate to sixty hertz, your video card updates the frame sixty times per second. For most people, a frequency of sixty hertz is low, and if possible, they will operate at a frequency of one hundred twenty hertz or one hundred forty-four hertz. The larger the number of points, the higher the load on the video card.
