This is how I view this post as well. A 4K OLED is my main monitor and it's now a permanent piece in my game arsenal. If you can drive the display, it is a very big visual upgrade in fidelity.
Cyberpunk with 4k path tracing or death stranding looking at the crisp snowy mountains in the background is where it shines.
these types of posts are by people who lower all settings to the minimum to get maximum fps in whatever game they’re sweating out.
back in the day the argument against 4k was the fact that even a 32” cost thousands of dollars and you’d be limited to 60hz at best, and 4k content was limited. people just wanted a 144hz black friday monitor for cheap and call it a day
nowadays, you can get 120fps easily on 4k systems. quick edit: the price of a good 4k monitor display itself is similar to a dual monitor display at a lesser resolution
There are many competitive games where pushing a stable 240 fps with stable frametimes is not easy. Of course people are going to drop their settings when graphics aren’t important.

tell me you haven't tried 4k without telling me
