>tfw 4k is just double 1080p
>the REAL 4k is actually 8k, 4 times 1080p, not many TVs or monitors with this resolution, very 'spensive

So "4k" is just twice as sharp as 1080. Lame. Ripoff. 1440p is just 720p doubled, better than 1080, still tho.

It's 4x 1080p m8

>>717401967
1920 x 2 = 3840
1080 x 2 = 2160
do basic math next

>>717401883 (OP)
You need four 1080p images to make one 4k image, anon.

Also 1440p is for retards.

>>717402007
thats 4 times the pixels

>>717402007
>>717402230
This is 4 times the pixels of 1080p

1920 * 1080 = 2073600
3840 * 2160 = 8294400

8294400 / 2073600 = 4

Now is the part where you say you were just pretending to be retarded and trolled me

>>717402821
Alright now that the real retard (uneducated here btw) is here, If you copy and paste that 1080p pic over the 4K pic would it fit 4 times?

Real life looks better than your computer screen that you are sitting way too close to

>>717406436
My immediate real life area (entirely urban no nature) doesn't look better than video games

Especially not at 4K OLED

Sorry God, nature is cool but they got rid of it all here

>>717403795
Yes.
1080
2160p
2x2=4 retard

Good thread.

>>717402007
That's two numbers getting multiplied by 2. What's 2x2 bud? Hint: You can visually see the 1080p image would fit into the 4k image 4 times.

>>717403795
yes, and 8k is 16 times 1080p and 4x 4k

>>717406936
how do you get two 1080p screens to fit a 2160p monitor

What an OP moment lmao

Don't listen to them, OP

OP's point is that we should call the formats
720p, 1080p, 2160p
not
720p, 1080p, 4k (randomly switch to horizontal pixels to make it sound impressive)

OP is correct, you're always limited by your lower line of resolution. It wasn't 2k, it was 1080p. It wasn't 640p it was 480p.
4k is a marketing term for brainlets who don't understand horizonal versus vertical resolution.
Get fucked TV marketers. :)

>>717401883 (OP)
I have a 4080 Super and I exclusively play on 1080p on high framerates, I have seen 4k/8k it's a joke, and not worth cutting frames that much.

I'd much rather have photorealistic lighting/shading with high framerates than textures having more pixels.

>>717401883 (OP)
For me it's 1280x800

>>717401883 (OP)
Congratulations, OP. You realised 4k is a marketing scam. They thought that 2k wouldn't sell enough TVs so they started using the width instead of the height.

>>717410736
To their credit, 4 times 1080p is quite a big leap and the power needed for it is a bigger deal than 2160p. The highest end graphics card can prolly do "true 4k (which is 8k) 60fps" at it's best.

OP doesnt understand 2x2 lumao

>>717409348
I will always fondly remember 1024x768

>>717410834
Yes, going straight to 4320p wasn't doable and they wanted to sell more TVs so they switched to using the height to make 2160p sound more impressive. Sure, it is pretty clever, but I still consider it a marketing scam.

>>717409348
Based 16:10 enjoyer.
But 1920x1200 is the king, ever since 2008.

>tfw still content with 1080p and 60FPS
Am I a pleb?

>>717403795
jfc look at OP's pic

>>717413540
No. You are a scholar and a gentleman, who is not driven by the synthetized urge to consooom.
