Glad it works for you. Since I upgraded to a 1440p monitor (I still have the same GPU) I went from comfortable high-ultra settings to mid-high settings + FSR Quality in more demanding titles. From the games I played in both 1080p and 1440p, I'd say that less GPU-intensive titles definitely look better in high-res, but I found the overall experience quite whelming.
Simply playing on a higher res monitor won't necessarily give you better visuals if you don't have the GPU power to match settings, however at that point it's not "higher res = better visuals" but "more powerful PC = better visuals" which, duh, of course it will look better.
Well there's your problem, you wanted better resolution but didn't match it with a GPU upgrade.
Gotta have both or you'll suffer a bit of loss.
