What does 1080p, 1440p, and 4k even look like side to side?
Would (you) be able to see any difference between any of them?
the human eye can't see past 24fps, so all we can do is go up in resolution.

240p is more than enough.
Or in this case 720p smushed down and clipped to 480i because using a HDMI to composite converter that only does 720p.
It works surpisingly well to just set shit to 720p, squish around with retroarch, and use a integer vertical resolution that just happens to fit perfectly with the overscan shit.

I don't know if you're talking monitors or televisions but the highest thing you can get is an OLED monitor/TV. The step below that for a TV would be a QD-Mini LED, and it's also way more affordable than an OLED. I find that 4K TV's are more affordable than 4K monitors, but it's also on a smaller screen, so it isn't as "spread out" I guess.
I suppose not everyone likes gaming on a 50-75 inch screen. Back when I was a PC gamer, I will admit that going from 1080-1440p was quite noticable. You can see a difference in visual quality.

The big difference is on whether the game is willing to put extra details at higher resolution. Higher texture resolution is an obvious one. For example, details that are 5km away from the camera might not be visible with a 1080p resolution but will be at 4K and even then the (LOD) models need to be detailed enough to pop out. Most game just despawn everything too far though.

With a 4k monitor, you aren't seeing the individual pixels at over 1 foot away; you can, however, resolve individual pixels with a 1440p monitor. For comparison, the steam deck's 800p screen has slightly higher pixel density than a 27" 4k monitor (which is why high resolution handhelds is a meme).

Framegen and/or upscaling are hit or miss. Sometimes it works fine, but if you are someone who cares about visual acuity, and if you are a PC gamer with like 4K120hz monitor you probably are, you will notice the ghosting and artifacting.
Modern games are also coded like shit and rely on those to even get to a baseline.

The reason people post zoomed screenshot comparisons or a videos is not because those differences are impossible to see without zooming. It's because we all view these things from different screen resolutions and different screens sizes so zooming helps equalize and point out. Videos get zoomed because it is near impossible nowadays to upload a video online without major compression ruining the visual quality of the video completely.

The ghosting and artifacting already happen at native resolutions with the standard rendering modes we use in all graphically complex games today. You are not going to escape image quality issues even if you stay away from upscalers, on the contrary if you avoid DLSS4 and FSR4 you will have worse image quality overall because their alternatives are having no anti aliasing which looks bad, or just having a weaker uglier version of DLSS4/FSR4 (called TAA). That's modern gaming for you, isn't it wonderful?

It's a different scenario than what I'm describing. 1080p looks much worse than 1080p upscaled to 4k (especially using DLSS). He's illustrating that DLSS is comparable to native in quality.
But a true 1080p image vs 4k? It's obvious. Here's a comparison of the same scene in 1080p and 4k, and the 1080p version is like being nearsighted:

that's the point.
DLSS upscaled from 1080p to 4k is more or less the same FPS as native 1080p but looks a whole lot better.
If you're running native 1080p/1440p then there's no reason not to run 4k with DLSS as it's better in every way.

The purpose of 1440p is not to be a visual upgrade but to keep the same high PPI on a bigger screen
1080p looks fine on displays up to ~22 inches, anything above and the lower PPI makes it look blurry, that's why on 23+ inch monitors you want 1440p
At the normal viewing distance there's pretty much no way to tell the difference between a 19 inch 1080p monitor, 27 inch 1440p monitor, and a 40 inch 4k monitor in visual quality, the only real difference is screen real estate

1440p monitors don't really cost much more now. Although I guess some people have some specific reason for using a 1080p monitor regardless of their hardware. Getting a high refresh rate monitor is more important regardless of resolution imo. HRR monitors are cheap nowadays, you should get one even if your hardware can't push it in games, you'll appreciate the smoothness even when just navigating windows and your browser. Had to explain this to a dude who kept saying his old ass GPU wouldn't utilize it in games so he'd just get some cheapo Chinese back alley 60hz piece of shit kek.

It's like 80% more pixels. Less than from 720p to 1080p and from 1440p to 4k but I wouldn't say it's not noticable or not worth it. It strikes a good balance between clarity and performance. I also like that the increased screen real estate. The only objective downside to it to me is media scaling can look weird on it unless the shit you're watching is native 720p since it scales directly into 1440p the same way 1080p does into 4k.

Exactly, so 1440p is worth it if you're going for a bigger screen that might drop PPI below 96 or 100, but on a say 22 inch display there's almost no noticeable difference between 1080p, 1440p, or 4k from the normal viewing distance

It's 4 times bigger than 1080p, and supported by every 3D title natively.
Now, of course, if you fell for the "apple retina" scam and bought a tiny little macfag monitor, you wouldn't get it. 4k starts at 40", there is literally no point in anything smaller than that.

That is because in the past a lot of them - much like the actual audiofool crowd - have gone by gut feelings and tea readings for their setups rather than paying attention to actual research done. Then again you'll find /v/ generally says high resolution is a meme and you need to sit really far away because...uuuhh.....you just do okay!? when the reality is far more complex.
The next wave of idiocy we will see (and sort of do now) is going to be HDR because while it should be a simple fire and forget switch it isn't so people talk nonsense about it because they don't understand it but y'know, are experts.

Widescreen has been the norm for like 20 years now. No game has been designed with 4:3 in mind in forever and I can't think of a genre that would benefit from having less horizontal space.

The key issue with "HDR" is that it's a meaningless buzzword that covers shit like 400 nits all the way to 10k nits. It's the new "HD ready" plastered all over 720p screens, and it's very easy to try dogshit HDR content on a dogshit HDR screen and write off the whole concept.
The reality of screens is very simple, it's all about PPD. The optimal PPD for any screen is 60, because this is the best ratio in terms of performance cost to value.
While you can go to 120 PPD and up, all you get for this is sharper looking text, while vastly increasing computational costs. When you go below 60, pixels are too visible.

DLSS/DLAA used to soften too much in motion back during its CNN model days, but at this point it's better in motion than any alternative. DLSS at half the input resolution has better motion and clarity and image stability than standard native TAA does. (Of course not having any anti aliasing results in better motion clarity but leads to other visual eyesores that are not worth putting up with)

I agree - it simply isn't enough.
I play 4K120fps with BFI and HDR on a 48" oled TV and it's glorious.
>everything I don't like is a meme
4K pixel grid is a bit overkill for sure. But 1440p at that size wouldn't be great either, you'd see the pixels. I hated 1080p TVs from years ago. With upscaler todays 4K is no longer an issue regardless.
>120fps isn't enough
120fps is enough in term of gameplay, but not in term of motion clarity, modern LCDs and even Oleds are blurry af even at 120
This is why BFI is super important and sadly nobody knows about it.
On my tv (LGC1) 120fps + BFI mode maxed gives me about 300FPS of effective motion clarity for free with no lag and sloppy fake frames (it's just rolling black frames like CRTs), but real CRTs used to be even better than this.
>HDR is meme
It's the only way you can use high nits brightness in a way that actually make sense. It's also the only way a game can use modern color spaces.
The issue is, virtually no devs knows how to implement it and community mods and patches does better HDR everytime, so you need to know your shit, if you don't, it's no wonder you think it's a meme, the option is broken by default on nearly any games that offer the option.

I love my 1440p 240hz OLED monitor :)
I think it's the good resolution for gaming on bigger screens. More HD means that you get distracted by the textures because our eyes have limited capability. With frame rates as well. When it's as fluid as real life in frame rate, for instance, I feel like I'd be a little disoriented. Especially if you're going to play on ultra graphics settings. This is my monitor and I think it's perfect for me. It's 1440p I think, and if you upscale the textures it isn't blocky. And it has HD speakers in it too.
Yes, moving up from 1440p to 4k is not though

You do not need a 2000$ GPU when you buy a 4K monitor. I got my 4070 Ti Super in January together with my 1440p display on which I played natively. Got a 4k display in June and playing at Dlss performance mode which gives the same fps as 1440p DLAA except it looks way better. Also the majority of the games I love come from the 2004-2016 era and I can run those at full 4k with triple digit fps. There's really no need to spend two grand on a card if you can do this.

1440p is 3,686,400 pixels,1080p is 2,073,600 pixels, 4k is 8,294,400 pixels.
Which means 1440p is 1.77x of 1080p - but 4k is 2.25x of 1440p or 4x of 1080p. 4k is a substantially bigger upgrade over 1440p than 1440p is over 1080p.

Yup, but if your graphics card is old I suggest going for a higher refresh rate instead. Once you increase res you wont want to go back and that's not a mistake you want to make when you have an aging card.

It's noticeable, particularly in textures and geometry (aliasing jaggies are a lot less noticeable, to the point I sometimes even play games without any AA at all).

Then you lied in your original reply and you are in fact using less than 4k@240.

Funny for me that this has an ME screenshot, because ME was my original resolution eye-opener, when mid-playthrough I upgraded from 720p to 1080p and definitely noticed the difference. And 1080 > 1440 was a similar jump in quality for me.
