I'm considering upgrading my gaming monitor and I found the Sceptre 27" 4K monitor that offers 70Hz. Currently, I have a 25" LG 1080P monitor. I'm mostly into casual games, with Doom Eternal being the most intense title I play. I've heard mixed things about refresh rates—70Hz sounds better than my current 60Hz, but I know there are monitors with higher refresh rates. I'm just unsure if I'd really benefit from a higher refresh rate given my usage. What do you think about this monitor for my gaming setup?

Running 4K can be challenging, especially for a 3070. The refresh rate on your monitor is crucial for the gaming experience—higher rates mean better performance. Doom Eternal can run well at 4K, but for overall gaming, consider a monitor with 144Hz for that extra smoothness. 1440p is a sweet spot for quality without the extra strain on your system. If you drop to 2K, you'll still get plenty of juice out of that PC!
I see! What resolution would you recommend for my setup then if I drop to 2K?
