Consider a high-performance build lasting several years. A solid choice could be a 1080p display at 75Hz paired with an RTX 4080 at 144Hz, ensuring smooth gaming without frequent upgrades. This combination offers great value and longevity.

1440p resolution at 144Hz or 1080p at 144Hz, both offering high refresh rates.

In reality, the optimal choice might vary based on your financial constraints.

Will the 1070 run at 144Hz across every game, especially at higher resolutions like 1440p?

No, that's not the case.

I've seen a trend lately that says 1080p gaming uses a lot more CPU than GPU. 1440p to 4k gaming uses a LOT of GPU and very little CPU. not sure how valid that is though.

They've been checking too many Ryzen tests. The issue is the graphics card struggles at high resolutions because the CPU can't keep up, causing the game to run mostly on the CPU while only 50% of the GPU is used. As resolution increases, the GPU becomes unstable and the CPU handles the load.

You might hold off for the RX580 to receive a 1080p ultra-wide freesync display.

It all comes down to your budget. In my opinion, the ideal setting right now is 1440p at 144hz, though it might change in about three years.

The greater the detail, the slower the refresh rate will become (because the GPU has to handle more processing per image). The CPU handles the same tasks regardless of resolution—whether it's 1280x720, 1920x1080, 2560x1440 or 3840x2160—so higher resolutions mean less effort for the CPU since there are fewer frames.
