Feel like a grandpa asking this, but ive only ever been on 1080p, never even plugged a PC into a 4k display. so ive always streamed my media at native res. Now im going 4k later this week ive started looking at upscaling technology and the more i look the less i understand my own circumstance.

I will have a decent PC powering the TV itll either have a 1080ti or a 1660 super in it. What im wondering is when i play 1080p content on the TV, @ 4k desktop resolution will my PC be doing upscaling or will it be stretching it? Everywhere i look i see "get nvidia shield" or "buy a tv with a good upscaler" and im thinking "well surely my many hundred pound graphics card should handle this." Am i right?

Cheers
