Wow this monitor is amazing. If they start releasing 8K monitors with this refresh rate and variable refresh rate, I'd skip 4K without hesitation. I think you can play 1080p or 2160p (4k) in this monitor without a problem from a regular vision distance, it has more than 300 ppi! While keeping native res for Desktop and light games.

I'm throwing money at the screen but nothing's happening! SO. MUCH. WANT. Mind you, GPU power isn't there yet for 8K. Hell, even the mighty 12GB of a Titan quickly gets overloaded at that resolution in my experience. Any idea when this will actually become available to us mere mortals?

Until your SLI Titan Super X Dildo Edition graphics cards at $4000 a piece start weeping while struggling to pump out 10 frames a second in the latest un-optimized clown fiesta of a triple A game. That's assuming nVidia would have 4 Display Ports per card.

From the point of technology - well, ok, Sharp, nice one. From any other point - totally useless. Please don't even start to say how you need so much pixels on 27inch display. You simply don't (need).

But in the second part of my post I said I'd use upscaling for heavy games. Upscaling at 300 ppi~ maybe is not a problem at all

Your generic 5.5" 1080p smartphone sits at ~400ppi. >500ppi if it's 2560x1440. According to you both those resolutions wouldn't be required. If nothing else we presumably can agree upon the fact they look rather crisp, if nothing else, though 😉

People can easily distinguish between 4K and 8K on a 27" screen. There are so many other things than just pixel visibility that affects how we perceive our displays. I'd argue that there's no upper limit when it comes to human perception, and also note that these improvements usually translate to better techniques that could be used to manufacture lower resolution displays and consequently make them better and cheaper.

BS. Your proof? Just because they make it? The market for all sorts of products is fool driven.. with the 'moar is better' principle. Its already happening with 5.5" 4k phones. If they made 16k 24" displays some fools would say wowza and buy them.

For example, human vision systems are able to determine whether two lines are aligned extremely well, with a resolution around two arcseconds. This translates into an effective 1800 PPD. For reference, a 5” display with a 2560x1440 resolution would only have 123 PPD.
It would ultimately depend on the scene and there are obviously diminishing returns when going that high - but yeah, human eye pretty strong at noticing aliasing. Also the higher resolution on phones is mostly to overcome lower sub-pixel resolutions on like AMOLED and it's also useful for VR, which is becoming increasingly popular on mobile.

Very impressive from technological point of view. Not so much from practical. It can be usable for profesional graphical or movie studios (right now). Some studios mastering 4K movies in 5K. But I think its more technology experiment for now. That need alot time, till whole market can adjust. TV technologys proving once again, they going far forward in tech. BTW. For today, 4K is still fresh and new, not only coz its demanding for gamming. We see pixel or not.. that is just theory. Practice can show completly other. I talk about removing alising completly, no motion artifacts (can happen on 4K) - especialy with high brightness and sharpness. 8K should give sharp and smooth picture, which make it looks more natural isnt..? IMO we see pixels or not thats dosen't matter. But to be honest.. In 2019 I like to see OLED 8K + 120Hz + HDR in 65" with 700+ nits. Then I retired 4K ;D

We shouldn't complain about companies advancing technology even if it feels too early. These same conversations happened when 4k was a distant thought. They need to create the manufacturing methods if we want them to be priced in the realm of reality when it comes a time that we actually can drive them. Not to mention in the world of VR we need 8k/16k displays and with eye tracking and foveated rendering you could potentially drive an 8k display at the requirements of a 4-6k display.

Im wondering which direction developers will take once they reach something such as GPU's which can run 8k at 100+ fps. What sort of technologies will be pushed then i wonder.

Just FYI 8k has 4 times more pixels than 4k - the same relationship between 4k and 1080p 8k : 4k = 4k : 1080p

With sure! Its a complete waste of money... 4k is perfect up to a 40" display... make a 27" with 8k is ridiculus... LOL... 8 DP?!?!?! They would sell this monitor like a combo with 8 GTX 1080...

Wow. See how thick it is from the side - LOL - looks like about 3" thick! Back to the old CRT days compared to a 3mm think OLED glass TV panel. I'd imagine heavy too. Still, as others have said 27" is too small to make use of 8K pixels.
