Ive been looking at a new monitor which is Quad HD.

Quad High Definition (WQHD)
To create a difference between qHD and QHD, Quad HD is referred to as WQHD. WQHD displays have a 16:9 aspect ratio which enables widescreen content for supported devices, and this is the reason for the ‘W’ in WQHD.

In terms of the number of pixels, WQHD is equivalent to 2560×1440. This is four times the number of pixels you get on a 720p HD panel, but it is not as good as 4K. Do not get confused by the ‘Quad HD’ name, it is in no way related to 4K Ultra High Definition.

4K Ultra High Definition (UHD)
4K refers to resolutions of 3840×2160. This is four times as many pixels as 1080p Full HD. Many, however, claim that the market standard 16:9 4K (3840×2160) is not true 4K, but technically just UHD. True 4K is 17:9 (4096×2160).
