Please help me find the best screen for my rig.

I am putting together my first rig. So far I have Sprint pedals from Heusinkveld, along with their sequential shifter. I have ordered a SimXperience Accuforce wheel and I have a solid cockpit from China.

I am comparing two 49" Ultra Wide screens.

1) Samsung 49-Inch CHG90 144Hz Curved Gaming Monitor (LC49HG90DMNXZA) – Super Ultrawide Screen QLED, 3840 x 1080p Resolution, 1ms Response, FreeSync 2 with HDR

2) Samsung 49-Inch CRG9 120Hz Curved Gaming Monitor (LC49RG90SSNXZA) – Ultrawide Screen QLED, 5120 x 1440p Resolution, 4ms Response, FreeSync 2

So my question is... would you sacrifice 24Hz of refresh and 4ms vs 1ms of response, just to get the extra pixels?

I will be trying to run AC/ACC/iRacing/F1 at Ultra settings.

My only question would be do you have the PC power to run all those extra pixels and actually get 120hz on the 1440p? It's 7.3mil pixels vs 4.1mil...

If the answer is yes my preference would be the 1440, if not go with the 1080. I would always choose higher frame rate for racing over more pixels but that is just me. It's 7.3mil pixels vs 4.1mil...

4 ms, you won't notice, you will easily notice the resolution though.
I have the 5120 x 1440p at 100 fps, runs at 120 fps, 100 fps is easier to drive and I cannot tell the difference with G-Sync ( freeSync 2) running/
