Probably a 1440p because it'll be easier to run too and fully use that 144hz

Definitely agree with this, it will also future proof as time goes on, you’ll have to replace lower res quickly once 6 or 8k become standard

I had a 16:9 4k monitor for both work and gaming and it just wasn't practical.
Now I run a 32:9 1440p and life is just so much better. The only downside being watching videos etc don't look quite as good. But just use a laptop/tv for watching content.

I think that the difference in price is not worth the small amount of improvement from 1440 to 4k.

Depends on the budget and what you’re looking for. Def wanna get at least 120hz

1440 144hz if you play fps or fighting games. 4k monitors are nice but not many with great refresh rates yet

A lot of factors here. PPI in particular. If you were to sit right up on a 60 inch 4k TV as a monitor it would look aweful but definitely better than a 1440 monitor. From the other side of a room you probably wouldn't notice any difference at all.
Refresh rates above 120 are a scam because there isn't really anything that exists in the mainstream that can supply that kind of a signal. Someone is probably going to argue this, and that someone is wrong.
More pixels means more resources. A 4k monitor is equivalent to 2.25 1440 monitors, and you would probably be better served by 2 1440s with the thinnest bezels you can find, or else a 32:9 monitor.

1440p is a solid resolution for 23-27" monitors. I wouldn't be able to go back to 1080p after using a 24" 1440p monitor for the last 2 years now. 4k is tough to even play at unless you have quite a beast of a machine or are willing to scale down quality in game so i'd say go with 1440p and you shouldn't be disappointed.
