[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1936953, member: 110816"] It's not K2, but rather 2K referencing [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2K_resolution']2K resolution[/URL] which is traditionally 2048x1080. However, the use 2K is overloaded to cover other similar resolutions like 2560x1440 (non-5k iMac default, etc). If gaming isn't your use case, then a high refresh rate or cycle time isn't important. These monitors are also more expensive. I generally stick with well known monitor brands that I've used for a long time that fit my budget, so brands like Viewsonic, BenQ, Samsung, and so on. If you use the monitor for general computing, then technically any monitor will do. [/QUOTE]
