omg! 4K videos end up being 50+ gb a lot of time and honestly I dont notice a difference other than the sound quality, and Ive read that you like only really notice 4K difference in films if youre close to the screen so its great for games but not really noticeable for tv of films

if you're streaming it you probably won't notice at all, not sure if that's what you're doing. Its definitely noticeable for films, @Red_Shill can't think of any 4k TV shows. The 4k cut of "The Thing" looks so much better it's insane

that would come down to the torrent, not the resolution. but i guess rippers max out the audio quality if they realise the file size will be enormous due to the 4k.

Thats it exactly, and The 1080p rips they seem to squeeze them down and the audio suffers but the UHD they keep literally all the audio sweetness intact

OLED looks noticeably better than any other type, and they've gotten quite a bit cheaper but are still really expensive comparatively. Depends on what you want too do with it, really. Will you game on it? Want too watch 4k Blu-rays? 4k torrents will look good as well, not quite as good as blu-rays but it's noticeable. A lot of the 4k cuts coming out look amazing.

It depends on the lighting. OLED will always struggle in well lit living rooms, but the contrast ratio is great for HDR.

High end LCD's definitely still have a place. (I) baby (my) screens, but OLED will inevitably burn in elements, it's cumulative.

Use cases like boomer parents or monitor usage is the absolute worst case for OLED no one should be doing.

OLED is best as a dedicated media display. (I) also keep high end LCD's (I) play 4:3 media like Star Trek on. The letterboxing will create a quasi-burn in effect on the OLED with how much Trek (I) watch.

Mid range wled ips panels have gotten really good, but they pack them with stupid gaming's picture modes and garbage color calibration out of the box.

You sound like you know more about it than me. @Red_Shill honestly don't think about it that much, the TV @Red_Shill had was a regular HD from like 2011. @Red_Shill will say I've had @Red_Shill's OLED for around 4 years and haven't had any burn in, and @Red_Shill don't notice it not looking good in @Red_Shill's well lit living room either.

I mean projectors are fantastic, I'm just saying without a ultrapremium screen and projector I doubt your gonna notice 4k vs 720p without freezeframing, it's an advantage it has like CRTs, resolution doesn't matter as much. but yeah EGA is abyssmal

1080p still looks pretty :marseybravo: alright :marseyokay: on 4K display :marseyplushieswinging: because of the pixel :marseyminer: ratios crossing over nicely or some shit I forgor :marseyskull:. Same reason 720p doesn't look half bad on 1440p display. I'm sold on OLED. Modern :marseywarhol: displays have pixel :marseyminer: maintenance features that help remove and/or prevent burn-in while the display :marseytransplushie3: is in standby.

resolution isn't worth it imho, unless you can run your videos through a good upscaling "AI" algorithm, which requires a good GPU to do in realtime.

what may be worth it is switching to Mini-LED or to OLED.

The actual resolution is honestly not that big of a deal, other aspects of image quality are more important. If you only have SDR 1080p stuff, you'll get some improvement but not as much as you would with good input.
