4K monitor


Recommended Posts

Much worse as the pixels are smaller.

 

Many discussions about the technology used and how to have a good balance at all resolutions without cheating with spotting etc.

 

If you go 4K you need a large screen / tv etc. Otherwise the pixels will not be seen as soon as 1080p (Large pixels).

I use a 50" 4k tv. Running at that resolution makes spotting aircraft much harder. I tested it a while ago scaling up lower resolution. 1080p looked terrible (on my 4k tv) however I could spot aircraft at about 40km, but it was just a black dot. 1440p scaled up ok for everything that was close but distant buildings looked fuzzy. I could spot aircraft at about 25-30km. Running at my native 4k resolution everything does look stunning, the scenery even at distance looks incredible. However I can only see aircraft at about 10-15km. Dogfighting with another fighter using trackir its much harder to spot your enemy. On the flip side if you do get your eyes on them and get into a proper chasing dogfight the detail is impressive. I would recommend a 4k tv over 40" for DCS anything smaller get a 1440p monitor.

Hey, don’t want to hijack the thread but can anyone say something about Asus ROG Swift PG43UQ 43inch vs Samsung Odyssey G9 C49G94T Curved 49 Inch? Im upgrading but don’t know wich way to go. Feeling is 43 inch 4K gives me more space top to bottom wich I like. VR is not an option.
