Yeah I don't see 8K delivering any value. My eyes can't resolve past 4k anyway, it'll just be heavier on the GPU and it won't get me a damn thing.

Sure, 64k ought to be enough, yada yada. That doesn't apply when you're running up against biological limits though.

I think even 4K can be overkill depending on the size of your monitor. I feel like the size of a monitor that wants 8K for good enough PPI would be impractically huge, at least for desktop use.

Okay but you can now have a larger screen with the same DPI and distance, giving you a wider fov.

Lies! People still want 10000 hz monitor!
