What GPU do I need for 165Hz at 1440p?
For modern games at max quality, an RTX 4070 or RX 7800 XT. For less demanding games or medium quality, an RTX 4060 is enough.
Is it also good for work and design?
Yes. The IPS panel has good sRGB coverage and correct viewing angles. It's an excellent monitor for both gaming and design/productivity use.
