Nope. Not if you understood what I am saying ;)

If higher hz which you would be upgrading for primarily was of such importance, then people would never have gone backwards to 100hz ;)

Again. Balance. There's many aspects to a monitor, balancing them to suit your needs is more important than any singular spec.

But past balance choices are indicative of what you value. Does not fit well with you saying you would be primarily upgrading for more hz over resolution now ;)
 

The thing you have to really try and grasp before you resort back to Mr. Shouty-Shout, is that a lot of users have already used 4K, maybe even for a considerable time before yourself. Many of those are of the same consensus; quickly becoming bored of the pixel chasing war. Perhaps your vision is just vastly superior to most which is why you see this incredible shift in image fidelity going beyond 1440p. Whatever the reason, try to remember that you're the minority here - so there's probably a rational reason as to why that is.

What on earth are you on about. I game on a 4k 60hz screen and its absolutely great! Ive experienced all the monitor resolutions since I splashed out on a 19 inch CRT and never once have i considered crying in the dark.. What a useless post and point of view that you have.

If his point was that 60Hz feels terrible compared to 100-240Hz then, depending on the game at hand, it does.

Responding to the wrong dude?
 
Yes, was aimed at the kid ;)
I am not a kid no more. All grown up now :p

Oh and fair enough, I can understand people not wanting to chase pixels due to the cost. But just say that, rather than downplay and make it sound like there is no difference, which is what a lot of people here do.

Nothing to do with cost.

Didn't mention cost, not once. This speaks a lot about how you're posturing this to yourself. I could quite happily purchase any panel on the market right now. Heck, I could ask HQ for a 4K G-Sync panel. I simply don't want one right now. There's something in the product stack for everyone.

Totally agree^

I use a 4k panel but the sort of games I play suit it, if I played something like BFV I would move to a widescreen/higher fps very quickly.

4k is poor for fast moving games.

Pixel chasing you said. Last I checked more of these are a good thing that bring better image quality. Many here do not want go 4K due to cost, even read a comment earlier today forgot who it was now saying they are glad they never upgradid due to the rising cost of graphics cards. That may not be the case for you or a few others, but it is for many, you cannot deny that.

We will only end up disagreeing in the end. My stance is 4K is just simply very noticeably sharper and better picture quality that 1440p cannot offer. I like my graphics, so I much prefer that than a lower resolution monitor that has been available from since I was a kid :)
 
There's no pixel chasing at 4K with a 2080Ti. You're at the zenith there. Pixel game is won, you stand atop the pixel mountain, arms raised... the one true Pixel King. Until 8K comes along that is. As has been stated, 4K is amazing for certain games... for fast twitch stuff, not so much. If that's your bag then a 120/144Hz 1440p monitor is going to be far better suited. As mentioned, there is something for everyone... no right or wrong at the end of the day.

8k has already come along. There's a dell 8k monitor around the 3k mark.

Not into games like that myself or none of this silly fortnite stuff my mates are into.

Also correct me if I am wrong but just having a 144hz monitor even at a lower fps. Say 60 for arguments sake would be quite a bit more smooth and responsive compared to a 60hz panel?

Pretty sure a Titan RTX would run BFV close to 100fps at 4K without the ray tracing on anyways.

Yes but that's very much a halo product, it's not 'mainstream' and as widely available like 4K is... 8K is still very much in its infancy. You can pick up 4K monitors for a few hundred quid. or use a multitude of TV's if you so choose.

Finally someone who gets it.

No gsync one and there won't be any texture pack's for that resolution for probably another half a decade. 4K is where it will be at for the next 6-8 years it seems.

Though I do look forward to trying get a 8K panel in the future. One of the draws once a gsync 8k monitor is out will be not needing to use aa which some games still need at 4k.
