That's not how it works at all, that's just marketing pixels.


Yes, the marketing comes the amount of Pixels that are in each line, multiply it by three, whatever way you look at it its 3 such 4K screens, 3 of them do not make up one and a half, its 3 such screens, its not difficult :p

maybe they should have called it "The 8.3 megapixel" it sounds better :D but not as snappy...

I feel like I'm in some kind of alternative universe here :D :p.

P.S. it's 'argument'

love you

God dammit. Now i know how Quentin Hapsburg felt in Naked Gun when Frank Drebin said to him "But I warn you, so much as sneeze and I'll be there to wipe your nose."

EDIT

Speaking of which, you remind me of Quentin Hapsburg.

That's even worse. If someone tried selling me an 8.3MP screen for 2,500 pounds I'd tell them to do one :D.
 
So realistically are we going to see 4k screens within the next 2 years at a consumer price level with a decent refresh rate?
 
I was tempted to buy one last month as was feeling extremely bored but even I managed to contain myself. The panels just aren't worth the time of day at 30Hz. I could get the same effect by playing at 1080p and putting bleach in my eyes.

8K = 7680x4320 --- 33,177,600 pixels
4K = 3840x2160 --- 8,294,400 pixels

3x 4K screens = 24,883,200 pixels
No where near 12k, not even close to 8K. 3 quarters of 8k to be exact.
8K is like 4x 4K screens in a square (rectangle because of 16:9 resolution)

^ Winner. Performance difference is always gauged by pixels per inch normally.


Seriously if someone doesn't get a review up for this card soon I'm going to end up trying to cook my Titans out of shear boredom :D

Thanks Dave. I did start working it out but ran out of paper :D

No, your not getting it, your taking the screens Pixels as a whole.

The way your looking at it you need to multiply the amount of pixels by the amount of lines, IE 3840 pixels multiplied by 2160 lines = eight million two hundred and ninety four thousand four hundred: 8.294,400 (8.3MP) times by 3 and you get 24,883,200 pixels. (25mp)

Which is not "No where near 12k, not even close to 8K" the K stands as it always does for "thousand"

Your mixing up the total amount of pixels across one line (Which is where you derive 12K from) with the total amount of pixels in the image as a whole.
