4K Ultra HD TVs
    #23455052 - 07/19/16 05:34 AM (7 years, 6 months ago)

Me and my homie are onto this craze

But is it really worth it? Don't get me wrong I see them in a shop and picture quality is stunning!

And all new computer graphics card support the high resolution... I assumed in Windows and movies? What about games?? 4K is very ... flat, and I don't know if games will support it?



There are new graphics cards out there that produce 7680 X 4320 resolution, what's that gonna do to u if ultra HD is 4096 X 2160 ??

Everywhere I look at these 4K TVs everything's in clouds!

Is it worth it? that depends on you.
It's definitely a huge step up from 1080P. Is it worth the price right now? That's a personal choice.

4K/5K monitors will become the new standard in the next year or two.
But if you want to be able to game at 4K resolutions, you are going to want a good modern video card with a good amount of VRAM to handle it.. at least 4GB. 2GB wont cut it. 8GB cards are going to be the new standard pretty soon.

Nah dude I don't want to play X plane @ 4K settings, that's silly

It works great at 1920 X 1080, u see everything well, jamming it to 4K only going to affect FPS but won't improve graphics quality, what do u say?

If anything, I think 4k will benefit computer monitors the most, as you sit so close to them.

Whether or not 4k is worth it is a function of screen size and distance. My opinion is that 95% of people probably own a TV under 50" and sit greater than 6 feet away. I bet these people receive zero benefit from 4k.

I'm buying 4K to replace my 26 inch computer monitor

Ps. I also got a satellite box hooked up to the rig and they brought out a new hardware not few weeks ago which streams 4K satellite programs, it's called Sky Q, good stuff :strokebeard:

Hope you are planning to upgrade your video card too. A 4k monitor requires a lot of VRAM to push all those pixels.. most especially when it comes to gaming.

For regular computer tasks.. watching videos.. it's whatever..
but when it comes to gaming on 4K.. you better have the video card to back it up or you're not gonna be happy.
