That depends on the size. For 27" or larger, the recommened resolution is 1440p (non-retina) or 5K (retina). 4K is ok if you're going for smaller sizes.

Just recently bought 27" Dell and I'm quite happy with it (for coding).

Which dell did you end up going with?
Dell P2723DE
What’s the refresh rate on that?
60Hz
This is a similar monitor at a similar price at least in the UK but it benefits from the 120hz refresh rate

Dell UltraSharp 27 Monitor - U2724D

Thank you, great resource
