I keep coming back to this topic. I am eyeing a 1080 GTX and wanted to know if anyone is running GCII in 4K? Also is there a step up from 1080p but below 4K that also looks 'amazing'?
What monitors are you guys using for 4k?
"Amazing" is a product of pixel density versus viewing distance. If you buy a 64 inch 4k tv and sit it two feet away from you, it will just be four 32 inch 1080p monitors, fidelity wise. If you buy a 32 inch 4k monitor, it would instead have four times the resolution and you'd have "amazing" clarity.
If you want a finer picture, you simply need a higher density display. I'm typing this on a 27 inch2560x1440 Acer K272HUL, it's an IPS, and it looks pretty good. I'm in need of more real estate more than higher fidelity, so I'm waiting for 32 inch 4k ips/pls monitors with good color to be less insanely priced.
I am running an Acer XB270HU, an 2K monitor., which is the step up from 1080p. I have posted a couple of videos of my ships and they should be in 2K resolution for you to look at if you have access to a high resolution screen. The screen was gotten for real estate more than GalCiv, but I certainly like the way GalCiv looks on it. I notice the fine details as my ultra shiny ships reflect the very starfield around them. You can see individual stars. That is impressive.
