4K will enable you to be closer to your Bigger TV without it looking bad.
Nobody is going to sit close to a big 4k screen tv.. it wouldnt make a lick of sense.

DPI's benefits work like this:so you're telling me that 4K isn't going to allow people who are accustomed to playing on 24" 1080P monitors at close range to play at a further distance now with a bigger monitor without the lost of dpi?
lol
Bro, I've seen you in multiple 4K threads where this shit has been explained many times and it looks like you still don't get it.
Users gain more benefits from a higher DPI display the closer they sit to it because there is no loss of detail despite a shorter viewing distance (and thus a wider field of view).
If anything, widespread 4K displays will encourage more people to game at their desktop because the experience will become even more immersive than it is today.
now just imaging if you could replace them 2 small monitors with one of these at 4K

... Then why are you even asking this? Unless you seriously expected 4K monitors wouldn't be around, I expect at worst computer monitors become content to match TV resolutions, but in smaller displays and faster response times.no one had to explain anything to me I know this.
Composite.What kind of cable do you need to run 4k with 60fps?
I'm sure every PC Gamer has hooked their PC up to the Big Screen a few times to see what the big deal was about gaming in the comfort of your couch on a big TV, & chances are you unhooked it & returned to your desk space because you have become accustomed to the higher Dpi of your smaller monitor & the HDTV just didn't look as good to you.
fast forward to 4K & you can finally get the high Dpi that you love on a 1080P 24" monitor in your living room on a bigger screen.
or you can stay at your desk & geek out with a 48" monitor like a mad man.

requiring to turn your head to view the screen is a no-no for me :S
my current setup.
one of those cheap korean 27" monitor 1440p
old dell 23" monitor 1080p
pc and ps3 attached.
Some broke ass office chair (good one is back at parent's house :S).

that's one of the benefits of the higher res you will be able to sit closer to a bigger screen so you wouldn't have to sit so far back from a 46" that's what enables them to make 84" 4K TVs because because you can watch a 84" 4K TV at about the same distance that you needed to watch a 50" 1080P TV
but he was using 2 monitors so not much changed.
That actually looks nice. How is it for productivity aka yell at the Internet about why its wrong?

I am a lot more interested in a 30" 4k monitor than in a 50" 4k TV set.

I think it's time for me to invest in a second monitor. I could watch two episodes of LotGH at the same time.
And on topic: I agree with the others saying that such resolutions on TVs would lead to high resolution monitors being more common. I would gladly take 3840 × 2160 on a 27" screen over a 50" TV.

I defiantly want higher res. My 23 inch is 1080 which really is fine for the distance I am from it, but then the iPad 3 came out and I was like that tablet is higher res than my gaming monitor. So when its time to replace it I will go higher res, but I'm not going to buy a 4k TV and move my gaming to the living room. When I got Modern Warfare 2 I actually preferred the smaller monitor to using my 52in TV in multiplayer.
What? A workflow with two monitors is always different and better than one giant ass screen.
Haven't you heard? There won't be any 4k monitors. Only TVs. onQ said so (by ignoring all the previous posts about that).
I don't remember saying anything about a price & I said fast forward so this would be a time when 4K is more common.
I actually like this thread. I genuinely feel that moving away from the desk experience to the couch is only hindered by a quality and innovative interface that can allow precise input, something valve may be working on and the display which valve is also migrating towards (big picture mode. The missing link is a High DPI display that is somewhat affordable. My gut feeling is Apple will get it right and shoot for a 2500 dpi TV Display that will actually look Great and have a good target of software that can support it while looking amazing. When all these pieces line up, say good bye to desktop gaming.
yep that's what I said & I said nothing about getting a bigger monitor in the OP in the spoiler.
? not even a 8K 22" monitor would have that kinda dpi.I actually like this thread.

All you're talking about is putting a TV on a desk. Why would anyone do that, when there will be 4k monitors?

the point that I'm getting at is that 4K will make your 46" TV more like your 23" 1080P monitor. differences being that it will be bigger & you will have more space in between you & the monitor.

Sometimes (and for designers most of the time), that is a very bad thing.
I'm sure the designers will be part of the group geeking out with the 30" + monitors on their desk.
Why choose? 4k monitor for the gaming, 4k TV for the HTPC.
As a designer and from all the other designers I know, No. Bigger isn't always better.
And I thought this thread wasn't going to be any good!
Go listen to your mom bang, the thread title is superb.Salsashark said:with the terrible title I thought it was some sort of gaming site article
4K displays and 3D are never going to move televisions to the mass market. It will have to be something else and die hard PC gamers will never switch to consoles no matter what.
One thing I like about Kinect is the voice command aspect. If someone could streamline that into TV's and let you video conference with friends, etc. then I see some possibilities with that tech integration with TV's. Heck that might bomb as bad as 3D though who knows.

You really, truly do not get what me and others are saying about DPI, do you? If you make that giant TV the same DPI as the computer monitor it's not going to make you want to sit further away, you will want to sit the same distance away as from the desktop monitor to retain the same sharpaness. For that matter we don't want a 47 inch monitor (if you can find one in that size for the consumer market that ISN'T a TV!), we'll want the 4K 20-some inch monitor instead to overcharge that DPI. Seriously, take a look at this, at best you might have an argument for people who are in the middle, they want higher DPI yet also want to sit a bit further away, but you're not making that argument. If you want to keep that same 1080p sharpness you get from your monitor for your comfy couch gaming you... just get a big 1080p TV. Sit the correct distance away, and it is effectively the same as far as you can discern.yep that's what I said & I said nothing about getting a bigger monitor in the OP in the spoiler.
So, somewhere in the world, there are people (who aren't creative professionals) who are really excited to shell out to upgrade their entire setup to 4K?
You learn something new every day, I guess. TV manufacturers must love you.
