After wondering for ages why 5K monitors weren't a thing (so you can do 1440hdpi properly), I finally realised 8K TVs would provide great 1440hdpi because it's 3 times more pixel dense. Unlike Monitors, TVs also put the scaling workload on the tv instead of the PC/console.

Considering many 4k TVs struggle with scaling 1440p natively still, do you still not think 8K TVs are the best way to enjoy crisp 4k/1440p native content and hfr 1440p gaming on a large screen? Without the pixel workload choking the input device/pc/console?

The Ps5 and Xbox series x have not caught up to 4K. The Xbox one X has had the ability to play 4K games natively for some years now. Technically the Xbox series X is capable of 8K gaming at 60fps. Which doesn’t even exist right now for console games.
