4K gaming is worth it.

No.

I have an LG C1 for gaming and it's amazing but the 4K resolution is the part I care the least about.

Nope, meme resolution. Okay for gaming but everything else you consume will have shit PPI unless you upscale everything you watch and do, which I doubt

i did play it on 1080p and had a wonderful time tho

4k isn't worth the money under a certain screen size, and that certain screen size is too big for any application other than living room tv.
Monitors peak at 1440p, with 1080p still being perfectly viable if you have space issues.

It's worth it but you get used to it and it becomes normal to you. And over time your GPU falls behind so you have to drop to a lower resolution, which then looks unbearably ugly in comparison. Not worth it.

Same with headphones. I used to be satisfied with 20 dollar cheap headphones, now I got used to 200 dollar headphones that sound so much better. Except now they sound normal to me and the 20 dollar ones sound awful.

1080p is bad (even 1440p) because of how modern graphics work. Games use temporalslop so the quality of your display resolution and your graphics relies on your pixel count and framerate more than ever. 1080p games in the age of temporalslop look like 540p games from pre-temporalslop.

I love the resolution where the minimum is buying a $2000+ gpu every generation.
>>714682378
Could also just do 1440p and 360hz+ so you have a good use of mfg

4k is problematic.

>>714675505
It's only amd cards, dlss is good at 1080p. Even 540p internal isn't blurry.

I regret so much getting an ultrawide display.

>>714684471
Why? I am really thinking about buying a ultrawide.

>>714670957 (OP)
Yes, but i will take the long /v/ around.
Triple AAA games are shit. old games are good, and on PC, you can basically always choose the resolution you want instead of letting some fart sniffing retard choose it for you.
So the logical conclusion is that you should get a 4k screen so you can play old games in 4k that any GPU can do.
And if you have a high end GPU, you do FSAA along with 4k to play old games even better.

>>714684341
Your eyes will AA the picture, however they will do it in a natural way.

4k makes my games too immersive which detracts from my ability to shitpost.

>>714684656
I have a regular ultra wide (oled), not the double panel.
>anime picture
Well for stater, enjoy your anime with black bars. As well as most content made for a tv with black bars. Movies are great when the picture format is the correct one.

For gaming, most Japanese games are not compatible and around 60% of indies as well, forget about most of older games. Patches exist but they are not perfect.
The extra room is wasted space, nothing is happening in the corners and some games will hide ui elements in each corners making it very unpractical.

For everything else, the extra room is not worth it compared to the clarity and extra room provided by a 4k panel (I also have a 4k 32" but not made for gaming).

It all depends on your use cases but I've been more frustrated than anything with my ultrawide.

>>714684931
>Your eyes will AA the picture, however they will do it in a natural way.
If this were true, we'd never need antialiasing.

>>714685767
That reminds me of an opposite frustration i have.
i do have this CRT TV i use to play old games on, 4:3 and all.
And i found out that many "pixel art retro games" actually don't work with 4:3 at all, like sonic mania.

>>714685965
The pixel count has to surpass your eye cone resolution so the pixels merge into subsamples.
You can easily test this by loading a say 1080p picture and looking at a distance, shit will anti alias.

>>714686228
Increasing your distance from the screen to reduce your perception of aliasing is like cutting off your nose so it never itches you.

4k is worth it if you can get a 27" monitor and your gpu can handle it high frame rates.

The main reason you want 4k is to alleviate taa blur

>>714691296
I'm just proposing it as a "scientific experiment" rather than "how you should do it".
My point is that when you're running 4k at a small enough screen, you already get FSAA, and a natural one caused by the limits of your vision, rather than some artificial blurry shit, or some manmade horrors beyond your comprehension like TAA.
It's the same logic as printed magazines and such.

>>714691334
> The main reason you want 4k is to alleviate taa blur
This is a wild idea but maybe games shouldn't have a vaseline filter to try and make me consoom a 4k screen like some good little paypig.

Fucking amateurs, hold my keyboard.

>>714691604
It's a bit of an other way around.
a 4k screen reduce your need for anti alias.
However TAA is not only anti alias anymore, its a bad technology being stretched as much as an anime girl in the hands of dobson.
All TAAs including DLSS work by deforming the last frame to look like the current frame, and combining em.

In the actual original purpose of anti-alias it was used by shifting the picture around in sub pixels, so with enough accumulated frames, you had something that looks like FSAA if done right, and assuming the "deform the last frame" step was done perfectly (it's not, DLSS is better at it but still not perfect).
Now they accumulate shadows (drawing noisy shit that accumulates into soft shadows), accumulate ambient light, accumulate raytracing, accumulate shifts in full pixels to stretch the resolution and all that.

However the whole "deform the last frame" step is still imperfect, so you see everything fall appart in motion.
That fast fusion for the switch 2 is the perfect example, as it tries to accumulate 1080p from 360p, but the game as the name implies is fast, and the whole "deform frame" fails catastrophically on it.

No. The bath wenches (and wenches in general in the game) are titty monsters.

>>714696059
16:9 is a console peasant resolution, 32:9 is too wide and unnecessary because it stretches the edges. 21:9 is the perfect aspect ratio because it allows you to play at ~80 FOV so the enemies don't look tiny in the distance while still having a full view over the image
