Anyone got a 4k TV/Projector yet?

I'm curious to know how well ROHQ/MadVR performs with upscaling stuff to 4k and how this output is handled by GPU and HDMI.

Cheers

I donīt understand the necessity for 4k. The best solution is to go with a Full HDTV or a beamer with LCOS or SXRD technology with a significant better pixel fill rate and best black level. I think the eye has problems to see advantages above the actual video technology.

The Carlton Bale charts are wrong too. They are based on the distance for someone with average vision to resolve a single pixel, the HD formats are designed around not being able to resolve individual pixels.
So double all the distances on that chart for the "ideal" distances.

I can't wait until high quality 4K displays are available. I use a 1080p TV as a monitor, and text looks rough up close.
4K brings that in-line with computer monitors, and 8K puts it on-par with retina displays.

The problem for me is that no-one is building high-end LCDs any more. They're all edge lit. :-X
So I will have to wait until 4K OLED is here, and a few more years until it's here and affordable. And hopefully by then they will have sorted things out so that there's no motion blur, and they're using standard RGB subpixel structures.

I understand also that 4k offers an improved color gamut over the current 1080p standard.
