Hi all,
Currently have a very generic 24” (I think) Dell 1080p monitor. It’s connected to my gaming PC. My intention is to replace with a (likely similarly generic) 27/28” 4K monitor. The main purpose is for me to also plug in my MacBook Air while I’m working at home for various productivity apps, and it’ll be running in HiDPI mode (effectively 1080p but rendered at 4K), trying to get as close as I can to the “Retina” display of the MBA.
However, my GPU is only a 2060 Super, and it’s the aero version with a single fan so struggles a bit on cooling (it’s not a mini PC build, it’s full size). I got it for £100 from a mate last year so a nice bargain. I will not run any game at 4K, and will stick with 1080p.
My concern - and reason for the thread - is that games could look particularly more pixelated when I run them at 1080p, with the monitor using 4 pixels for each rendered pixel. Is this a valid concern, or am I not likely to notice it unless I’m searching for it?
