Vega isn't coming for a while... I would get a cheap 144hz 1080p now, it will pair well with the 570 and allow you to instantly enjoy one of the best aspects of PC gaming.
144Hz is nice if you want to play games like Quake Champions or other intense fighting games. The smoothness of motion and immediacy of control is compelling.
It's a nice combo in that context. Kinda sucks for anything else though, but the better stuff comes with much heavier pricetags and often compromises in responsiveness.
. But true, even lower res content on 4k screen can look better just as was the case back in early 1080p days, but that then is question of processing quality and the aforementioned inability to have the same panel and circuitry just with a different resolution.
Seen one of those 144Hz panels in motion at the house of my missus' brother-in-law and he played Battlefield 4 awesomely well. I was impressed at how fast he reacted and how he twisted his back and his neck when he tried to find the smallest place where to shoot or the tightest shot in difficult situations. In fact I wrote a thread on the experience. When watching video and stuff like that I think the screen wasn't nearly as good though, it had this mist like effect on the screen, though I guess calibration would do wonders.
I'm on two 23" 1080, one 120Hz and the other 60Hz.
this simple review I looked at
The first monitor I owned was only 320x240 (that was really high resolution back when I got it) and amber monochrome. Yes that was similar to Televisions, but unlike televisions it was sharp without pixels bleeding into neighboring pixels (if you attempted to use a TV as a monitor back then). My how times have changed.Mine was green monochrome - do I win
can attest to that. I am using a 32" panel, 1080p native and I had a 19" and a 21" LCD screen, both 1440x900 iirc. When I get a monitor again I am going to wait for a freesync 4k display, with a size of 32" at least, though I am thinking about getting a 40"-42" display, more than that is quite large for my desk and my viewing distance. Also a 12 bits colour panel like the one I am using now would be also nice, but I think I could do with 10 bits, although 12 bits really looks very very nice so we shall see.Nope. It's the same way that 500 GB HDDs are fine...until you get more storage and fill it.
Monitors are the same. I was fine with 24" 1200p monitors, then I got my first 30" 1600p monitor. Going back to 24" is painful (more than lack of vertical resolution than size) but doable still. Then I got my 49" 2160p monitor. I could go back to using a 30" monitor as main, but just the thought of doing so is painful.
Had I not started down the road of upgrading monitors I'd still be happily gaming on a 24" screen. Then again I could say the same about my 20" 1600x1200 monitor. And even before that my old 15" 1280x1080 monitor. And before that, etc.

was one of them. Health is really important in that sense, specially for a myopic.
