Man, people really upgrading to 4K right now? I'm not in any rush to do so. Seriously, what is wrong with 1080p?

I don't have one and haven't felt like I needed one yet.
Will likely get one towards the end of next year.
Aren't most PC gaming elitist gaming on rigs beyond 1080p?

Its becoming dated. You can easily find a cheap 1080p TV.
My weak ass Asus laptop can easily do 1080p.
4K is way better breh.

I bet years ago when dudes was rockin 720P sets, they were like "ehh 1080P not that big of a jump is it??"
I've seen 4K, that shyt is better than 1080P. It's like asking if $50,000 is that much better than $10,000.
If you bought a tv in the last 2-3 years it's probably a 4K. 1080p is being phased out.
No because running games at 4K/60fps is hard for most builds.
4K is better resolution I understand, but for games not many are running shyt in 4K at 60fps. Are we close to this being standard now?
I'm not just talking about 4k... I see PC gamers gaming on monitors that are 2560x1440.
Depends. Not 4K/60fps easily but it's getting there.
I'd be fine with 1440P/60fps honestly. I bought a PC monitor to try last year that was 1440P and the increased resolution was great not just for gaming but for work. The increased resolution allowed way more windows to be visible at a time.
Example:
1080P
1440P
And? There's always some next level shyt going on with PC Gaming.
What's the norm/average tho? Most aren't running games at that high resolution at a good framerate.
The POINT is that 1080p is no longer "the thing." It is becoming dated.
That's if you have a sucky gaming rig that can't do 1440p. Like I said 1080p is becoming dated to PC gamers. Or at least the ones who game on high end rigs. And like someone said 1080p TVs is slowly being phased out.Hell, I see many very cheap.
When something becomes the norm/average that means it slowly becoming obsolete i.e 1080p.
I am not sure I am ready to call it "dated", many games have not even patched to support ultra-wide monitors yet.
This is the real issue here. Can developers actually take advantage of the new horsepower?
PCs have been ultra powerful but games still struggle. X-COM 2 had incredibly bad framerates and it was turned based.
Uncharted 4 had its graphics turned down and it only runs at 30fps.
NBA2k runs like shyt for anything off the court.
How's it gonna be for 3rd party developers who create 2 xbox versions and PS4 and PC and then VR versions?

There is still (in 2016) no consistent or quality 4K broadcast or streamed content to take advantage of 4K.
Which makes each company banking on 4K being the future standard of television in the home kinda of silly.
Console gamers should be furious that either company is showcasing and promising 4K resolutions and current games STILL don't consistently play at 1080p/60fps.
