August 29, 201213 yr Personally I'd hope for a better TV experience. Indeed, and in Ireland ( as in other Countries I'm sure) we pay a TV license fee for the privilege. Nature documentaries would look good on that screen though. Anthony O'Brien
August 30, 201213 yr Sheesh, in the last five years we've seen Plasma, LCD, LED, HD, 3D and as if that isn't enough, now they've developed something else to try and sell us! Don't forget the flexible LCDs screen! I mean, it's so useful! :rolleyes: i7-6700K @ 4.5 GHz, 16 GB DDR4-2400 MHz, GTX 1070 8GB
August 30, 201213 yr Indeed, and in Ireland ( as in other Countries I'm sure) we pay a TV license fee for the privilege. Nature documentaries would look good on that screen though. Have to agree, I'm not entirely sure what value we get for our license fee each year, The only good thing to come out of the RTE in a long while has been "Reeling in the Years", I love that show with all the nostalgia, think it was on replay there a week ago, but I don't think it would benifit from super HD resolution, and for €200 a year, I'm pretty sure I could do without it, still though, great show... Who knows, probably would be great for looking at movies on though, or as you say, nature documentaries... Regards, Ró. Rónán O Cadhain.
August 30, 201213 yr I am quite happy with 1280x1024 resolution on a 19" TFT monitor.

August 31, 201213 yr At least with the Beeb one gets "Jets: When Britain Ruled the Skies!" Featuring rare footage of Norman Tebbit "not on his bike!" Truly excellent show -- it caught me by surprise as I didn't know it was going to be on until I was idly scanning the schedules for BBC4 the same evening. Footage of the EE Lightning was particularly impressive, as I often fly one of those in FS9 as a change from puttering around in a Cessna :lol:
August 31, 201213 yr Sony have just announced a 4K TV set at IFA 2012. Its an 84" 3,840 x 2,160 3D TV and it looks like it is going to be insanely expensive. However its nice to know that all this will be affordable in about 3-5 years for people who are not millionaires. I mean take a look at 3D when that first started Sony were asking three grand but now the same set is just three hundred pounds.

September 1, 201213 yr How many GPUs to achieve good FPS on that resolution with 3D? :rolleyes: In all seriousness, a resolution that large is going to require some monster GPUs. 2 GTX690s might not even be enough. We are going to need to have a few more gens of GPUs to be able to handle these extreme resolutions.

We are going to need to have a few more gens of GPUs to be able to handle these extreme resolutions. Exactly. Even if we're getting resolutions like that, hardware will need lots of years to catch up. About TV, I don't think it would benefit from a resolution like this. 50% of it is still advertising, and in my country the resolution is 720x576. I'll not hold my breath.
September 2, 201213 yr We might be looking the wrong way entirely on this. As I mentioned in another thread.
