Hows 4k gaming these days?

Thinking of buying an GTX 1080 and trying it out.

Do many games support 4k? Is there much notable difference?

Should I just upgrade my 1920x1080 moniter to one which has 144 hz?

pic unrelated.

its a meme

All games that are not shit console ports run at 4K and just supersample if you want with that moniter, and get a 1070, its a nice card.

Thats a non response. substanceless.

It's good for better image quality but if you have a 1080p monitor you won't see that big a difference except have your performance plummet.
You could achieve similar results to 4k by downsampling from 1600p on a 1080p monitor.

Also while most games support it, many will require you using ini tweaks and such to get things right.

If you want to play at 4k don't buy a 144hz monitor, you'll never achieve the 144fps for it, however if you have a card that can do 4k it can most certainly do 144fps.

Just don't fall for the meme of a 4k high refresh monitor cause you'd need two titans to get anything worthy out of it.

>1600p
That's a completely different aspect ratio you moron.

No it's not, you can downsample from any resolution, 1835p, 1921p, 1777p, 1600p. I just prefer to do so in round increments to keep better track of the performance changes.

You dumbass.

Im really only upgrading for bannerlord.

So youd recommend 1080p with high frames. okay.

I take it then that 4k has yet to arrive properly yet.

>No it's not
Divide 1920 by 1080 and divide 2560 by 1600. You're looking for 1440p or something higher.

16:9 is not 16:10, you disgusting mouth breather.

>1835p, 1921p, 1777p,
Also these aren't 16:9 either.

God damn you're dumb.

Yeah dude it sucks but 4K is just not worth it yet, really though banner lord is gonna run on intel HD 4000 just think about that. My 2600K and 1070 should barely be able to run it,

Not him but 4k looks good for any game, if your GPU handles it there's no reason not to use it. 144hz is more of a meme since it's just smoother and most games don't support the high fps.

If you already have a decent 1080p/60hz monitor just stick with it for a few more years.

>4K
It's a maymay, it does look better but you can achieve the same result with a 1080p monitor by just supersampling from 4K to 1080p. So answer to
>Should I just upgrade my 1920x1080 moniter to one which has 144 hz?
is yes. I thought too between 4K and 144Hz and got 144Hz and now can't go back to 60fps anymore. 4K is only good for screenshots and if you don't mind playing at 20fps.


Also these are interesting, AA vs supersampling

>and now can't go back to 60fps anymore
And yet you're forced to unless you're limiting yourself to a minority of games.

4k is better overall as it works for the vast majority.

>limiting yourself to a minority of games.
?
I haven't encountered any games that are locked at 60 and can't be unlocked via ini files except something like Memetale.
But I've encountered many games that don't support modern resolutions

>I haven't encountered any games that are locked at 60
Because you don't play a lot of video games.

>But I've encountered many games that don't support modern resolutions
No you haven't.

Hell name 5 that have unlocked frame rates but capped resolutions. I'll fucking wait.

>he doesn't know the "standard" resolutions are just arbitrary and that you can maintain any aspect ratio when downsampling from any resolution

loling @ ur ignorance

You're literally a mouth breather.

Stay wrong and dumb, mister no resolutions.

>Because you don't play a lot of video games.
I do, but not the bad ones

>No you haven't.
I have. Of course not the newest games, but tons of old games run perfectly fine with unlimited FPS while they only support like 800x600 resolutions without patching.

>Hell name 5 that have unlocked frame rates but capped resolutions. I'll fucking wait.
-UT2004
-VTMB
-Max Payne
-Call of Cthulhu:DCotE
-Morrowind
-Need for Speed: Underground 2
-Thieves, System Shock 2 and other Dark engine games plus almost every other game around that era.

Want me to go on?

Yes please. Putting aside your lying, please keep naming 20 year old games pretending they aren't "the bad ones".
