Only thing that will do is increase your GPU budget by $300.

If you can hardly even see any difference staring at a still screen, you can even less see any difference when stuff is flying all over the place in a game.  Screen size is far more important than resolution per inch for gaming.

I guess. But if it improves the overall visual feel, then it'd be a really good investment. However, I think only artists (or similar) would actually benefit from this. Can't say about others but here at work, the artists are using 300dpi... so maybe even they wouldn't really require it.

if you have money why not! this is part of marketing strategy they intend people to crave for new technology with few updates, in contrary if you don't have money to spent then it's time to think a lot if will benefit you or not!

More screen estate is an auto-sell for me so long as it isn't a retarded price.

While that disadvantage is obvious, if it is DPI ~ well, good eyesight should compensate shouldn't it?

So my answer is, why the hell not?
