Sorry for the derail, but can junior members make threads now? Or did onQ123 just get juniored recently?
Is that intended as same sort of mark of shame/infamy?He must have gotten juniored halfway through this thread.

Because I would find it a bit hilarious (sorry, OP).
It's what happens when someone makes a habit of using the new thread button unwisely.
Unwisely? or maybe my threads are too wise for the people who post in them & they won't understand until a few years later.
It's because you make terrible threads.Must have, not sure why.

Am I the only one that rather game in my office than in the living room? Sofas make me sleepy.
Get a better office chair people.
Office chairs > Couches. I need my back support.

This, basically. Computer monitors always have had the edge in resolution, and while this period is something of an exception you can still get much higher resolution monitors. So even in a worst case scenario we'll have desktop 4K monitors that are more affordable than 4K TVs, and everyone would just play on those.I think that when 4K TVs become more common, 4K computer monitors will probably also be pretty common. So I'm gonna say no.

Don't do this. Especially when it's not true.
I know did you see my spoiler? I know most people will take advantage of the higher res by getting a bigger monitor.

Nope, I find it much easier to enjoy and focus on a game when I play at a PC screen... (hell I even play my consoles there). The fact I can put on some headphones and have it right there in front of me with no distractions like people walking infront of the screen, others talking, or the dog playing.. Just feels good man.
Comfy couch is super over rated... only thing its good for is some same screen multiplayer.
PCs had this in 2001.
Some games play better with a gamepad from the couch
I'm sure every PC Gamer has hooked their PC up to the Big Screen a few times to see what the big deal was about gaming in the comfort of your couch on a big TV, & chances are you unhooked it & returned to your desk space because you have become accustomed to the higher Dpi of your smaller monitor & the HDTV just didn't look as good to you.
fast forward to 4K & you can finally get the high Dpi that you love on a 1080P 24" monitor in your living room on a bigger screen.
or you can stay at your desk & geek out with a 48" monitor like a mad man.
The mods have finally stopped the virulent threat that was "onQ threads"
30 inch 2560x1600 at 3ft in a comfy ergonomic chair
vs
50 inch 3840x2160 at 8 ft in a comfy couch.
Doesn't seem like much of an upgrade to me.
4k jaggies ewwwwww, no thanks
PCs had this in 2001.
And because manufacturers are lazy and cheap bastards, they convinced everyone that "full HD" is some magically good thing and progress has stopped since 2007, where common monitors had a higher resolution than today.
the comfy couch suburbs are where you go to retire when you give up any hope of being competitive.
i'm holding out for oculus' offspring.
That actually looks nice. How is it for productivity aka yell at the Internet about why its wrong?
I won't give up this sweet gaming command center.
I sometimes hook my PS3 or Xbox to the monitors
The reason I do not play games on the couch has nothing to do with the my TV being lower resolution than my monitor. I do not play on the TV because I can't stand being so far away from the screen. It makes everything I am doing in a game feel very disconnected and distant.
So, no 4K TVs will not help. I will gladly buy a 4K monitor though.

4K will enable you to be closer to your Bigger TV without it looking bad.
