What specifications should I look at when buying a new monitor ?

IPS
Size+resolution
Always get a least full hd and if you go bigger than 24' you should probably go to 2k.
Also response time should you *shouldn't usually need to care on most good monitors.

2k is full HD... You are mixing up your buzzwords...
But yes obviously resolution, size of monitor, screen technology, color precision and price is relevant.

Yeah, you're right I'm just used to everyone I know and every flipping website referring to 1440p as 2k.
How did this even happen.
>falling for the monitor specs meme

Official monitor specs are generally marketing bullshit.
Look for decent reviews that measure the monitor's color quality, gamma, contrast ratio, response times, viewing angles and so on.

So how do you pic your monitors if not by looking at specs Capt. Shitpost?

resolution
size
price.
yes im a pleb.
but imo who cares. dont give a fuck about the colour, or the tech. as long as its good definiiton, big and can support a 60hz refresh rate

Depends on your usage scenario.
For desktop usage, VA panels are great. The more pixels, the better.
For gaming, something like the Eizo Foris FS2735. Minimal input lag, low response time, high refresh rate, good viewing angles.

Neither 2k nor 1440p properly refer to WQHD. You're spouting bullshit.
2k is FHD. 1440p is something people use who only ever heard of the 1080p marketing slang.
>>51944580
1080p actually refers to the size of the media, eg. movies. The display resolution is FHD. Technically, you're saying: 'a display that can display 1080p content'. There is no 1440p content.

What about movies f(a)m?
