I don't know, but we have smartphones and tablets already. Maybe the industry doesn't care about desktops anymore?

The problem is burn in, plain and simple. As soon as OLED tech advances enough to remove the danger of that, both temporary and permanent, we might see more OLED monitors. Until then, enjoy your TN / IPS filled existence.

>TN/IPS filled existence
>implying I'm not still using my CRT from like 10 years ago
I'd love to have a good, high density CRT still. I think my parents still have my old one in their shed somewhere, but the biggest problem lies with the fact that they are pretty low-res, and more often than not are exclusively VGA (which isn't a problem in and of itself, but makes for a hassle when connecting to a GPU or Mobo that only has digital outputs)
I've never seen a 4k "CRT" yet. So this is even more of a meme technology than OLED so fuck off.
>CRT a meme technology
>implying 4k isn't the meme here
Meme on.
Did you forget to take your pills again, user?
How is 4k a meme? What, do you hate high pixel density?
Let me guess: 1280x1024 Master Race!!!!1
Diminishing returns. It's not like you can use them without scaling anyway, all you're getting is smoother graphics, which, who really gives a fuck?
Besides, your point is pretty retarded, there are plenty of CRTs out there that can do 1080p-1440p and beyond just fine. Resolution was one of their strong points until relatively recently.
It's a meme because 4k on shitty panels is worth nothing. It's like putting icing on literal shit.
my crt was 2148*1536, so with my 1080p screen i've actually gone backwards
>there are plenty of CRTs out there that can do 1080p-1440p and beyond just fine
Please at least provide a single source for where I can purchase one of these.
>It's not like you can use them without scaling anyway, all you're getting is smoother graphics, which, who really gives a fuck?
Ah yes, what is perhaps the most common Sup Forums fallacy: If something doesn't directly appeal to me, it must not have a market or any use at all.
This is why the pixel density for phones, laptops, TVs, monitors, etc. has all remained the same, right? Clearly there is no market here.
See above. Try to make a point that isn't just cynicism and projecting.
I want summer to end
Kys so it ends 4u
4K has been around since 2001.
I don't know where you live but try looking for LG T910B, Philips 109b6, Samsung 997MB.
Pretty much any 17 inch or above CRT can do 4:3 1440p.
>Please at least provide a single source for where I can purchase one of these.
Ebay, surplus shops, thrift stores, niche resellers. The used market isn't consistent, the shit isn't made anymore. The two best example models I can think of off the top of my head are the Sony W900/FW900 duo and their assorted OEM rebadges (mostly Sun, SGI, HP, La Cie, et al.), there are also high-end options from the likes of Mitsubishi, NEC, Eizo and other manufacturers of displays for the professional market. Just because you had some destitute 800x600 piece of shit when you were a kid 20 years ago doesn't mean they all were.
>If something doesn't directly appeal to me, it must not have a market or any use at all.
I never said that, I said that it's not some absolute necessity and it brings little to the table in terms of practicality. Of course there's a market for it, but it's like looking at a used sportscar and shitting all over it because it isn't Formula 1-ready.
>This is why the pixel density for phones, laptops, TVs, monitors, etc. has all remained the same, right? Clearly there is no market here.
You keep using this "market" word like it means anything, something doesn't have to be necessary for people to buy it (and just because it exists doesn't necessarily mean they are- there's a reason desktop PC sales have faltered, and it's not because phones are replacing them)
I don't doubt that you personally can find these, but searching both google and craigslist (Atlanta, so I'd imagine there is a decently large market) for all three of these models revealed nothing. Seemed like any "listings" (forum or otherwise) were from almost a decade ago.
See above. If I am having trouble finding at least one in a large market such as Atlanta, then you can't possible suggest that there are "plenty" out there. Also, leave off the "hurrrr u were kid with shitty monitor" snark. It adds nothing.
>I never said that, I said that it's not some absolute necessity and it brings little to the table in terms of practicality.
>which, who really gives a fuck?
So wait, are you saying that people do care, but it isn't a necessity? Or are you saying that no one cares because its a luxury? I'm not really trying to nitpick, per say, but you should at least defend what you originally said, not some new imagined argument.
>something doesn't have to be necessary for people to buy it
Same as above. You literally said "who gives a fuck". Clearly, a huge number of people do. I get that you're trying to appeal to the "I don't use computers or technology for anything other than ONE HUNDRED PERCENT HARDCORE WORK" Sup Forums-tard persona, but let's be honest with ourselves for a moment. You, just like everyone else here, uses tech, no matter how occasionally, for entertainment purposes. And when that happens, there is a fairly strong likelihood that "looking good" might play into your enjoyment of said thing, no? People are buying higher density phones, tablets, tvs, etc. because they look better, plain and simple. You can argue all day long that "it doesn't improve productivity", but does it really matter?
OLED doesn't have the working lifespan for a computer monitor. I stopped using OLED on my mobile devices because I would burn them out (not burn in, but the screen would totally stop working) in less than a year.
>If I am having trouble finding at least one in a large market such as Atlanta, then you can't possible suggest that there are "plenty" out there
It's not really surprising that Craigslist isn't brewing with people hiding $5,000 displays in their closets.
>So wait, are you saying that people do care, but it isn't a necessity? Or are you saying that no one cares because its a luxury?
Ah, yes, the classic "if I take what you said absolutely literally, I'll be right!" strategy.
>Clearly, a huge number of people do.
Do they? Last I checked, even on Sup Forums 1440p is far more common, 1080p even more, and there are plenty of outliers using old 4:3/5:4 resolutions like 1600x1200 and 1280x1024.
But really, it doesn't matter, because my point is not that a bunch of numbers-obsessed fags care about 4K, neither does it hinge on it, my point is that it doesn't bring as much to the table as you imply it does.
>I get that you're trying to appeal to the "I don't use computers or technology for anything other than ONE HUNDRED PERCENT HARDCORE WORK" Sup Forums-tard persona
Let's quit it with the strawmen while we're ahead.
>You, just like everyone else here, uses tech, no matter how occasionally, for entertainment purposes. And when that happens, there is a fairly strong likelihood that "looking good" might play into your enjoyment of said thing, no?
Not really significantly enough for me to care, no.
>People are buying higher density phones, tablets, tvs, etc. because they look better, plain and simple.
But once again this isn't my point, I don't give a fuck what normalfags are buying (and normalfags aren't all buying 4K like you think they are, they're buying whatever shit 1080p panel is the cheapest, as evidenced by the fact that those are still lining electronics store shelves and selling in droves, too)
>You can argue all day long that "it doesn't improve productivity", but does it really matter?
You can argue all day long that "it just looks better", but does it really matter?

I'll take this as you conceding that you were wrong.
>Ah, yes, the classic "if I take what you said absolutely literally, I'll be right!" strategy.
Listen, homie, if you say one thing and then say what is essentially the exact opposite, don't expect a rational person to just gloss over it.
>Last I checked, even on Sup Forums 1440p is far more common, 1080p even more
Good sample set.
>I don't give a fuck what normalfags are buying

"I don't care, but I still have an opinion". Classic. "Normalfags" aren't buying desktops, as you pointed out earlier. They are buying laptops. And yes, those are being shipped with higher pixel densities.
>You can argue all day long that "it just looks better", but does it really matter?
I think you are done really arguing this matter, if this is what you finish with. That's fine (back to work, etc.), but I hope you really don't believe that "looking better" isn't "bringing something to the table". This board bitches and moans day after day about how "reeee normalfags only want iDevices because they are shiny", so I can't help but think that "looking better" really DOES bring something to the table, no? Yeah, that may bug more technical people like you and me, but when it comes down to it, the luddite consumer is the one who generally makes a bigger difference in the marketplace. How unfortunate.
Whatever you should want to believe, user, it doesn't really affect me (and vice versa). I just enjoy arguing and debating people. Enjoy whatever monitor you're using at whatever resolution you're using it at. Have a good day.
But neo Sup Forums is rabidly pro-nvidia, not amd
>800$ used
The want intensifies but the pocket doesn't.
I've got one that goes 2048x1536@75hz
The flexibility in resolution and refresh rate is pretty wonderful. Scaling issues don't really happen and curves don't look pixelated basically ever. You can turn down AA settings pretty low if you like. Makes muh Japanese kanjis look really clean.
I got it for $10 locally off Craigslist (by a pure miracle) last year and absolutely love it. So great for vidyo gaem emulation and getting the absolute most out of video content with different resolutions or framerates, as well as turning the resolution down and shooting the refresh rate up to 120hz or something.
What makes OLED a better option for 90% of people though is the contrast ratio. CRT's can "project" pure black, but from my experience if there's any other light (in your room or from other parts of the monitor) it's going to bleed out to the rest of the picture. If you're watching something with a bright picture and black bars, the bars are going to be just as bright as a regular-old LCD monitor.
It's like having a real-time version of that phony LCD backlight dimming feature. Neat, but it doesn't really give you the depth that an OLED has.
Dealing with convergence and magnetic fields from speakers etc can be a bother, but it almost feels like you're taking care of a living being if that makes sense. I really like this thing.
I only have a battlestation pic of it so forgive that. I don't feel like taking a new picture.
Weird, i see 100000009090 rx 480 threads all the time
>I'll take this as you conceding that you were wrong.
Not really, I never said they were everywhere, I just said there were plenty out there. Doesn't mean you can pick them up off of craigslist all day long.
>Listen, homie, if you say one thing and then say what is essentially the exact opposite, don't expect a rational person to just gloss over it.
Not really sure what you mean, I'm saying that pixel density is trivial, not that it's unwanted entirely.
>Good sample set.
To see consumerism central not laden with 4K display users can speak pretty heavily to your "but everyone cares A LOT" statement.
>"I don't care, but I still have an opinion". Classic.
I don't really care, no, because my argument has nothing to do with what is selling. People buying something has no bearing on necessity, ergo, no, high pixel density is not the end-all-be-all just because people buy it. Does that make sense now?
>They are buying laptops. And yes, those are being shipped with higher pixel densities.
In the high end, not in the low end where normalfags are actually buying.
>This board bitches and moans day after day about how "reeee normalfags only want iDevices because they are shiny", so I can't help but think that "looking better" really DOES bring something to the table, no?
Stop taking memes and shill strawmen seriously. It's bad for your health.
>I hope you really don't believe that "looking better" isn't "bringing something to the table".
I do. I've never thrown a tantrum over pixels. It's about the message, the information, the gameplay, whatever, not just the looks. They only add to what is already enjoyable.
>Whatever you should want to believe, user, it doesn't really affect me (and vice versa). I just enjoy arguing and debating people. Enjoy whatever monitor you're using at whatever resolution you're using it at. Have a good day.
Same, it was fun.
>I only have a battlestation pic of it so forgive that.
Oh I even forgot that. Ass.
Sup Forums loves AMD, it's in their contrarian nature. As an example, haven't you ever opened up an old shit thread and seen all the shitters jacking it to the Athlon 64?
My phone is 4 years old and hasn't burned in
With the advent of 8k I don't see how you can consider 4k a meme. Honestly people that still pleb on over 1080 make me sick. My 4 inch phone does 1080.
>Tascam vl-a5
>Magnetic Shielding for use near CRT computer monitors
I don't know if other speakers have this feature but it's pretty cool.
1080p @ 24 inch (dell p2414h) here. The PPI is a pain in the ass otherwise its a fucking great monitor.
>I don't know if other speakers have this feature but it's pretty cool.
lots do, but its less common nowadays since CRTs are dead
you are not supposed to hold your monitor right infront your face like a mobile phone.
I'm considering gettin 1440p instead of 4k. dont see how a 25-27 inch 4 k monitor makes any sesne when viewed from distance
