I want one but my GPU can't drive games at 8k and 100+ FPS. Also there's no media for it.

Gotta get people to replace their tvs somehow so dangle an "upgrade".

I want a new fucking 3D TV. I'm so mad every single manufacturer gave up on that.

Yes, a lot of 3D content was awful, headache-inducing, and bad... But tons of it was done very well and looks amazing.

My viewing position is about 330cm/11ft from the wall where my tv is mounted. That works out to roughly 80” television for 4K viewing pleasure. https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/by-size/size-to-distance-relationship

8k would be ridiculous, and the compression would be a significant factor.

Remember when ISP companies went after people who used over 500GB in a month? I remember.

And yet people want 4k screens on phones and 13in tablets...

I think most phone nerds understand that 4K on a phone is not necessary.

I found quite some 4k movies being more noisy than their 2k pendant. So whats the point?

I'll take an 8k computer monitor though. In fact, send two. Kthnx.
