Recently went 1440P and preferring it over 1080P, when went from 1680x1050 to 1080P never felt I gained enough windows desktop space, so my main reason for going 1440P was this.
I had an Eizo FG2421 (24" VA), I used 120Hz with V-Sync on or off depending on game/FPS. As it's a VA panel the blacks where super, especially when large amount was on-screen, I noted no glow to it; as if the pixels where literally turned off.
I got a Dell U2515H (25" IPS), when a lot of black is on-screen it's not like the VA Eizo, but expected this as it's IPS. I mainly notice it when desktop backgrounds have large blocks of black in or say loading screens, etc. Due to the Dell's screen size/resolution the PPI makes the screen far sharper, which I like a lot
. IMO not having any GUI scaling issues TBH and made no changes to it in Win7 or 10 from default setup. I suspect I do have some back light bleed 
, upper left corner worse than lower left, only those 2 corners seem to exhibit it. It's more noticeable when room has low lighting coupled with when large amount of black is on-screen. In normal lighting hard to notice it, overall happy with screen/1440P, I do believe the colours look slightly better on the IPS panel vs VA.
In games where I got 120FPS+ @ 1080P and now playing them at say lower FPS @ 1440P I don't notice the difference blatantly. For example SWBF may seem ever so slightly smoother/fluid when run at 1080P with V-Sync on @ 120Hz vs 1440P with V-Sync on @ 60Hz, but it's not enough of difference for me to change back to 1080P
. As I never buy games at release (so literally wait upto a year to get them) I'm hoping the Fury X will last me at least another year or so.
On another note Crysis 3 still makes my jaw drop and now at 1440P makes me wanna complete it again. As I have yet to sell the Eizo when I have swapped over to it, it's also surprising how it looks smaller screen size vs the Dell, when it's only an 1" difference on the diagonal.

). The PPI was really the sucker punch for me 
, regardless how much I liked the Eizo I just had to keep the Dell (had been bought just for a trial
