    Where I work, everyone has 2 4k screens. You can use two cables to connect them, you know…

    And every one of them has either put their scaling up to 150% or simply set them to 2k, because you cannot read a damn thing on them.

    More than 4k is a theoretical need for a veeeery small market

      Graphics cards only come with one HDMI port though. The LG OLED is popular for 4k screens because it ticks all the boxes and is much cheaper than equivalent gaming monitors, but that means it doesn’t support dp.

      And it means that you have to upgrade the graphics card just for the cable even if it is still relatively new. The point is that we shouldn’t be held back by just a cable .

        My graphics card has 3 HDMI ports and two DP ports… You cannot use all at once, but three screens are supported simultaneously…
