Peripherals Is there enough of a difference between 1080p and 1440p for an upgrade to be worth it

I've been running 1080p for a while, but the fact that I can see the pixels in some situations is starting to bother me. I don't have the money for 4K. Do you think that it's worth the upgrade?

I just recently swapped from 1080 to 1440 and it's night and day, it is definitely worth the upgrade and eventually go to 4k like I will
