The future of monitors - something you need to know.
« on: October 27, 2016, 06:51:00 am »
Looking for a new monitor? What about one that has many pixels closely packed together? There's something you need to know that you would have never seen coming.

- The more pixels you have in the same size screen means everything you love such as old favorite games and movies will be extremely small on your new monitor. And no, you won't want to have your computer up-size everything, because the image displayed on the monitor is no longer the same image made of the same pixels i.e. 480 pixels each with their own color and brightness, you will see defects such as light lines trying to make up for the re-size. And no, having a monitor big enough so you can use 4 pixels to act as 1 doesn't cut it, because some images will be only a bit too small for liking and then when re-sized will be way too large. Even worse, if you get a 7K monitor, you wouldn't be able to do this anyway until you get to a deeper even-number so 4 pixels act as 1 where 4 of these act as 1. Also this will require manual configuring.

What the key will be, is to have a monitor with such a high resolution, that when things are up-sized, you don't see the faint lines making up for the image since they are too small to see - i.e. the defects will be unnoticeable. Finally, don't worry about the opposite, images that reach all 4 sides of the screen don't get larger etc, so don't worry about that.

Currently, my 3200x1800 laptop doesn't look all that good, sadly.

I'm sorry, last night I realized something, but what I said still stands. With a 4K or 3200x1800 monitor you can have it up-size everything to 200/225% and the images that hit the border doesn't get bigger. And nothing will be bigger than usual since it got shrunken but now up-sized back right right. But two problems remain. Microsoft Windows 10 at least doesn't allow you to up-size so that 4 pixels act as 1 - no up-size gives me a non-fuzz image! And even if we can fix that, there's still another problem, images that begin to up-size from 1 to 4 pixels to act as 1 but hut the screen borders can't up-size that big else it gets cut off right, so back to the need for mannnnny pixels like suggested. If we had software that would NOT up-size the images that hit the borders and don't partially up-size then it would work on da 4K or 3200x1800 monitors!

If not mistaken I saw where a Japanese company (I think) has an 8K TV. Seems that change brings about competition.

Might want to hold off for a bit on those 4K's until the dust settles...if it ever will. O0
