If you're a responsible consumer and look out for good deals (like my seiki pro 28 inch for $220 last black friday) then you can argue that it's worth it.
However, anything that's a hobby can't really be measured in value as it relies on the sentiment of the performer.

It all boils down to personal opinions and income. Everything about that question is subjective.

I don't think 4k is worth it because I would have high expectations(60+ every game no stuttering or compatibility issues) and require a rig far beyond my expenses allow and the price/value ratio wouldn't be good. But there are plenty out there that feel otherwise and that's fine.

Not at the moment. My monitor is 1440 but I play my games at 1080 for the performance boost, which is about 10-15fps on my 6gb 1060.

Maybe later on when hardware can handle it with ease and we don't see significant hits to game performance.

Consoles should consistently hit 1080p before even considering 4k. Even at 1080p I still think the next jump should be 1440p but that's just me.

I have a 4K 60hz monitor and a 144hz 2K display. I vastly prefer the 144hz. Once we have 4K displays that are high refresh that don't cost $2000+ like the ones coming out this year do and we have single-cards that can run games at 4K 60FPS+, I'll be fully on board. Right now, 2K 144hz(or 165) with a nice panel is the sweet spot.
>>
Hell no. QHD should be next step.

Because Nividia and AMD slow manu progress we can't have 4 K right now.

And 1080 is fine. JUST GIVE US FUCKING STABLE 60 FPS. S T A B L E

No fucking way, never again. Ran SLI for four years. Half the games don't have a profile and the ones that do have iffy scaling.

After all the money I put into getting both a 4k tv, monitor, PC to run everything in 4k at 120fps, along with a player for the tv, I can say its not that much better then basic ass shit considering I have yet to play a game that even looks that good in 4k at 120 fps besides the few I can mod the hell out of.

I could have made a huge payment on my house and still had two computers better then what most of you non god race fuckers use.

You can in certain titles with SLI, but as mentioned previously, SLI is a shitty experience and you're looking at $1400+ invested in GPU to get it.

...plus high refresh rate 4K monitors are not a thing yet, and will be $2000+ on arrival.

I don't know about you, but I have a pretty decent job and make about 85K a year, but I don't really have $3500 just to spend on vidya shit that will be cheaper and better inside of five years. Just not worth it right now.

That's just moving the goalposts. You said the technology isn't there for 4k, when it clearly is. I remeber there being hype about Crossfire Fury X's being able to play games in 4k, 4k isn't some unobtainable thing. Saying you HAVE to play 4k/144/ultra is asinine considering high end CPU's aren't even strong enough to hit 1080p/144 in a lot of AAA games.

For cinematic movie games and cutscene heavy single player games with slow pacing yes. For anything with action or competitive you're better off going for higher fps/refresh rate. If you play neither than get a switch.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbGT-u4i3EY

Just to prove the point, even the fucking 7700K, the king of gaming CPU's dips well below 144fps at 1080p in most AAA games. People who whine that 4k costs too much money and say go 144Hz instead are delusional.

4k requires a really good GPU.
144Hz requires a really good CPU and GPU.

i7 CPUs are better for modern gaming than i5s, especially when overclocked, which the CPUs in that video are.
Though the other anon is wrong, because that video isn't displaying a CPU bottleneck in any of the games aside from maybe Ashes of the Singularity and TW3, it's purely a GPU bottleneck, hence why the 3770k performs as well as the 7700k in most of the games.

>>381940493
Are you retarded? The original point was that 144fps at ultra settings is literally impossible to hit with modern hardware, you have to lower settings. I was responding to all the memers who think that 4k doesn't count because "hurr you can't max out every game at 4k yet."

>video games nowadays barely even use the CPU
The 7700K is usually chosen as the best "gaming" CPU because it has the highest IPC, highest single thread performance and highest clockspeed on the market. Use more than 4 cores on Intel and clockspeed drops or it turns into a housefire, 4C8T is the sweet spot for gaming right now..
>>
>>381937205

List the games and list other CPUs
Cos 7700K is end of life, there's no room for improvement, only for better games.
And most benches often include shitty games that throw out inconsistent results or there's a flaw in their benching setup.
And don't even get started on DX12/Vulkan supporting titles, the developers don't know what they're doing yet with the latter and think it makes up for DX11 sub par performance.

Arma 3, Cities Skylines, Battlefield 4 /1, Assassins Creed series, Witcher 3, Crysis 3, Just Cause 3, GTA V, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Metro Last Light.

>>
>>381941271
>From a price standpoint they're not
They are actually, because instead of having to upgrade in a few generations or deal with horrible bottlenecks, you can hang onto an i7 and pair it with a modern high end GPU with little to no issues.
As shown by the video where an i7 3770k has no problem maxing out a Titan X Pascal in most of the games shown.
>>
>>381939726
a lot of games do go 4k on the upgraded consoles, though they might be upscaled 4k. but for console gaming that's the best it gets. if i gamed on consoles i would go the 4k option.

>>381941271
Dual-core CPU's are dead, and dual-core with hyperthreading is approaching EOL. The Pentium G4560 may be the best buget CPU right now, but it can't use anything higher than a 1060 currently. So once Volta and Vega come out, people with Penyiums or i3's will no longer be able to upgrade GPU's. the question is, if 2C4T dies next year, how long do you think 4C/4T will last? The writing is on the wall, the i5 series has at most 3 years.
>>
>>381941421
Except there's literally no need for that since you can achieve 4K 60fps with 2x cheaper hardware
>>
>>381941249

At least six of those titles are unoptimised trash, Battlefield dropped the improvements that 4 brought for some reason and Crysis 3 is ancient on top of being a gamewerks multiplat title.

That's not an indicative trend of anything, when you get games like DOOM that are extremely well optimised for CPU no problem, and get notable benefits just for more cores in Vulkan.

Well made games are not CPU intensive - they're just more CPU exploitable compared to the DX11 standard of old.
>>
Is higher resolution nice? Absolutely. Is higher refresh nice? Absolutely. The problem is you can't just snap your fingers and make any and every game work at your desired parameters. This alone is reason enough in my head to never strive for such standards because no matter how much money you throw at the problem, they are simply unattainable.

The cycle of 4k has gone the same for the last few years. New graphics card comes out. Plays current and old games at 4k 60 fps ish. Then new games come out post launch of GPU and suddenly that GPU flops at even 1080p max settings. Now we need to wait for another new top dog GPU to come out and give us back 4k 60 for old games.

This cycle will not break until 4k becomes to the masses what 1080p is today. It has to be the joke standard that every poor hillbilly can get for $100 from Walmart.

Ask yourself how far off we are from that becoming the reality for 4k, and you'll get your answer to when 4k gaming will be worth it.

>>
>>381942147
It's a real life benchamrk, not a synthetic benchmark. You can whine about optimization all you want, the reality is those are games that are all currently out. 144FPS Ultra is harder to hit than 4k/60 Ultra in most modern games, this is simply a fact. You don't build a PC for some magical "optimized game," you build it for games that are currently out or coming out soon and that's what they did.
>>
>>381942082

Well the games that people want to play are fun and often not very intensive, the exception being something like DOOM that happens to be well made.
Meanwhile, the continued shit Not-Uncharted reboot of Tomb Raider has huge driver related issues in DX12, yet benchmarks still use that complete turd of the game as valid results. Just to throw some randomness to the results I guess.

If you're looking into games like Arma, you have no hope but to bitch at people like Bohemia to get their shit together and make a decent fucking product, not having to rely on a typically 144hz build just to brute force a solid 60 FPS.
>>

But they don't bench games that also come out, and aren't.
They didn't even include DOOM, because most likely the results would be very similar/marginal. Because you're talking about much smaller number differences.
And corporations like Intel, who have made very questionable financial decisions in the past, don't like it unless you give some fire to light up their latest products - instead of exposing it for the marginal annual scam it is.

Frankly, if you're going to bench any games, you should strip out the multiplats immediately. Proving you can beat a console is pointless.

I think it's a fair question and you seem to oversimplify things in life. 4k really isn't worth the jump from 1080

Except PC games are almost always more poorly optimized than console games, since they have to get the game running on the low power 8 core CPU's in the PS4 and Xbone. On PC you get garbage like ARMA 3 which scales off a single core so people on liquid cooled Pentium 4's can still play.

>>381943631
People with old ass Pentium 4's can play Arma 3? Give me a source that proves it; and I'm talking about the 2003-2006 era cpu too.

>>381930929
Yes. 4K DSR looks amazing on my 1080p monitor, it would only look better on native res
>>
>>381944308
It was a joke you humorless faggot. My point was that because people don't upgrade their CPU very often on PC games have to target dual cores and quad cores at most, while console games HAVE to run on at least 6 cores otherwise they won't run on console. If you benchmark games PC gamers actually play, the results would be completely useless.

CS:GO on low settings
Team Fortress 2, which runs on a single core
ARK, which is one the most poorly optimized game of all time after The Sims 3
The Sims 4 which looks like a cartoon and runs on Macs
Player Unknown's Battlegrounds on low settings
Minecraft, the Java version
Classic Runescape

So wow, no surprise benchmarks tend to feature multiplats on Ultra.

More resolution = more precision, therefore it is gameplay.
>>
>>381941693
I thought this argument was about 144 FPS.
>>
>>381945330
And you can achieve 144fps with said hardware
Not achieving 144fps with that hardware means that either the game is fucked up or your hardware is fucked up

>>381945579
>And you can achieve 144fps with said hardware
You can't actually, unless you're using a 7600k and OCing the fuck out of it.

You need at least a Fury or GTX 980Ti to hit 1080p/144Hz in DOOM using Vulkan. And that game is well optimized, considering most games aren't in reality you will need something significantly better than a 980Ti.
>>
>>381931690
Lol are you retarded?

Yes 4K is better, but are we at the point in time where it might not be worth the investment.
>>
>>381945649
Riight, that's why there's countless footage of people running games at 144fps with even cheaper hardware than what you provided
And all you can counter that with is one measly video

Running CSGO on max settings at 144fps != running modern AAA games on max settings at 144fps
>>
>>381946119
Low settings on Quake Live doesn't count, the person who started this argument originally stated that if you can't hit 4k/Ultra in AAA games, 4k isn't feasible. 144Hz isn't feasible because even a 1080Ti will struggle to hit it in pretty much every AAA game except DOOM.

Provide me an example of a modern AAA game running at 144fps on ultra settings on an i5 please.

that's 720p with godawful amounts of HDR
fuck off with your clickbait

144Hz is so cheap guys, just buy an i7 and a 1080TI! Don't forget to play at 1080p despite spending $1000 on a CPU+GPU.
>>
>>381947207
I-I d-don't need max settings, b-but 4k still isn't viable b-because you can't do it on m-max settings at 60 FPS on a 980.
>>
>>381947207
Turn down grass and shadows from ultra -> high and turn off hairworks. Watch all those fps literally double.

>>381931690
How many games have you played that support 4k in the last month?
>>
>>381951240
Pretty much every game can support widescreen can run 4k, if not natively then you can always force it with your graphics drivers. Every AAA game in the past 3 years should natively support 4k.
>>
144mhz is better than a higher rez. I've been at 2k before 4k was the new meme and it's been an awful ride the whole time. Hardly any games support it and if they do they just stretch 1080p. But higher refresh means smoother game play and a prettier experience over all.

Nigga even ancient games like CoD 4 and DA:O support 2k.
Personally I just feel like it`s a QoL improvement though.

It really depends on the game. For some games having the ability to clearly see things off in the distance is really nice.

Ditched SLI a year ago
Can say literally all of you are flat out wrong
scaling is about 80-90% these days, micorstutter maymay doesn't exist, and nearly every new release supports it
Still a waste of money though unless you're pushing high resolutions

If you want to see enemies from long distances more clearly like ARMA then yes.

That's what's great about PC, play shit at whatever settings you want or can afford

No, most games don't even make good use of the 16:9 aspect ratio. High resolutions were a mistake for video games.
