Hello if I buy a 4k TV do you get an option to selected, 2560x1440p?

Thanks

You could run 1440 on a 4k screen.

It wouldn't look very good though. Would look a bit blurred.

I believe 1080p would work better due to pixel scaling ratio.

1080 is exactly half 2160 lines of a 4k screen.

Depending on how good the TV is and how close you're sitting to it, it can be quite difficult to discern much difference between 4K and 1080p so I wouldn't get too uptight about a high res particularly if you're playing games from your couch.

Thanks guys, I be sitting about 7 feet away from the screen. I just dont want to game at 1080p after using 1440p for sometime now. Surely 1440p on a 4k screen will still look much better?
