Are you referring to maximum configurations? It varies; some titles, such as Doom Eternal, are fine-tuned for intense experiences, while others like CP2077 might be less optimized.
Typically 2k refers to 2048x1080 resolution, which is nearly 1080p. A setup like that can easily handle 1440p at 144Hz without issues.
1440p at 144hz varies by game; many will work well while others won’t run smoothly at that frame rate. In newer AAA titles with maximum settings, 1440p at 144hz or higher often demands a top-tier GPU each generation. It reflects the pursuit of a top-tier gaming experience. A 9900k + 2080ti remains a powerful machine, though.
As shown in this discussion, "2k" has various interpretations depending on individuals, and using it often shifts the conversation into trivial debates. It's better to clearly state what you're aiming for. If you're targeting 144fps at 1440p in most AAA titles, the answer is no.
