Likewise, ultra-wide aspect monitors are a poor fit with the PS5, too. At launch, the PS5 doesn’t support a 1440p resolution, though compatibility may be added in a future update. One of those areas of compromise - and something we know for sure - is that the PS5 is a little more specific about resolution than a PC, and this will affect your search for the best PS5 monitor - both now and in the future. But with lower pricing comes compromises. Some fantastic screens can be had for half of that money - or even less. For example, the best 4K monitor for gaming with both high refresh and true HDR capability are currently in the $1,000/£1,000 ballpark. Delivering all those core capabilities in one screen will be costly. Of course, price is going to be a major factor. And also, hopefully, this paves the way for such support on other monitors too. So soon after said update, we are working our way towards a list and information on which exact PS5 monitors will be compatible to take advantage of this support so stay tuned and more of those monitors will appear in this list. This is great news and would allow players to game at 120fps on these compatible monitors.

However, things are changing from both the monitor perspective and the console's perspective: the recent PS5 April update confirmed that, among other fixes and bits and bobs, there would now be 120 Hz support for "some" 1080p/120 Hz PC monitors. Only the very latest HDMI 2.1 socket can fully unleash the PS5’s graphical goodies. An HDMI input is required, naturally, but not any old HDMI. Critical to all of the above is finding a monitor with the right video interface. At least you will if you want to unlock all PS5’s visual capabilities: 4K, 120Hz refresh, variable refresh rate, and HDR - the PS5 does it all. The downside of the PS5’s upgraded video output capabilities is that you’ll need to take a bit more care when browsing the best PS5 monitor.
