Author Pages (1):  [1]      dantengwen Registered: Nov 2018 Posts: 0 - Threads: 39 Location: USA [Edited by dantengwen on 20-11-2018 20:19 PM] I've been hemming and hawing over what display to get for my new PC (it's got a Ryzen 2600 and an 8GB RX 580, so it can definitely drive nicer/bigger screens), and I keep thinking that a 4k TV would be my best bang for my buck. Specifically the 43" TCL S405. My "problem" is that I am getting back into PC gaming to go along with photo editing, so I've been all over the map looking at different monitors. 1080p is great for games, but not for photos. 1440p (QHD) is a nice compromise, but a bit expensive in most cases. and 4k monitors, according to forum posts (so it's gotta be true) don't like running lower than native (and some games are going to need that flexibility in the future). But that model tv from TCL has native output for both 4k (photos and regular computer stuff) and 1080 (for higher FPS gaming...so I can't be the 1st person to think this way... so any of y'all have first hand experience using a 4k TV for photo editing? perhaps maybe even this TCL specifically?AkinatorXender Kik Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 20-11-2018 15:53 PM voodoobass a table, mes enfants... Registered: Sep 2003 Posts: 33900 - Threads: 985 Location: somewhere else I prefer not to be gaming on a studio PC in general. Way too easy to just start killing time when I should be doing stuff, plus it eats up all the hard drive space. Personally I would go for best possible native resolution for apps. I'm sure modern video cards can upscale 1080 to 4k anyway. in my experience 'odd' in-between screen resolutions suck in the long term soundcloud.com/voodoobass mixcloud.com/voodoobass Report this post to a moderator | IP: Logged 24-11-2018 23:37 PM Teach Registered: Apr 2003 Posts: 2896 - Threads: 224 Location: Kathmandu, Nepal If you're colour blind will it make a difference?
