Is there a big difference in graphics/details from 1080 to 4k monitor?

And do you see a wider area of the game world on 4k monitor? I'm also looking for a monitor that's easy on the eyes. What's the best kind of monitor that won't give me a headache after gaming for a few hours??

The image is a lot clearer. 1080p feels blurry and smudged after playing on a 4k monitor. Also there is no aliasing (jagged white edges)in 4k, and I even have AA disabled. Level of detail will mostly be matter of the textures, which are the same for 4k or 1080p. It also feels less claustrophobic. You can adjust your fov in the settings.

I would suggest a freesync or gsync monitor if stuttery framerates bother you. Hard to say about the headaches without knowing why you get them.

Probably because of the brightness of the monitor. And I game for hours.
