Tell that to the people who bought 2080tis recently. ?
Never wait for tech, if you feel a need, get it.
Now if you purchased a 2080Ti within the last month, you are just dumb.

Won't really feel a need until cross gen ends and goes straight to next gen.
Those zens in the console will wreck it then.

I'd bet they leave current Gen consoles in the dust for games a lot sooner than you think. Would also bet there is some intentional degradation to try and show a more dramatic difference too.

Will just have to wait and see. Still my plan is to wait tho.

1st party studios will no doubt do it. Not so sure on 3rd party w/o some major money-hatting.

For sure. I can imagine a screenshot of like God of War 2 on PS5 at native 4K with Ray tracing and then a severely muddied down PS4 version of the same screen at like 900P no ray tracing and a little extra degradation.

That's graphics tho. They scale nicely.
My point was my 4770k. They're not gonna put that out to pasture for 3rd party games just yet. If they did, it wouldn't be able to run on current gen consoles.
By the time they do, AM5 will be out.

LG GN950 is your top LG monitor for the year, they don't have another monitor for 2020. No HDMI2.1 but that's not needed for monitors.

Damn, I didn't realize those were so "cheap"
I figured they would still be $1k+

Monitors are slowly coming down in price as TV manufacturers are making smaller panels that are better than a monitor now. Puts some pressure on them, such as the 48" LG OLED offering this year.
Kind of dates back to this

I've had it on my wishlist since you told us about it but I never ordered since I thought they had more coming. Could've sworn I saw an article say that them and Asus had some in store. damn
I'm probably gonna get a C9 or CX for the next gen consoles
Posted on 9/2/20 at 1:38 pm to Carson123987
Yeah it's tricky with monitors right now still. Their picture quality gets dwarfed by decent TV's, but TVs are still too big for most setups like the CX 48".
I've seen quite a few PC setups with the 48" CX mounted flush to a wall a few feet behind the desk and it looks amazing but too big for me.

yeah I think 48" is too big. Anything in the 30s and I would buy
so many people on reddit saying they cant wait to push their CXs. do they really use that big mf or do they have couch pc setups? wild lmao
ETA: yeah that's just too much

I've seen a ton using it a few feet away mounted to a wall behind their desk yeah.
Best bang for your buck sure, monitors won't come close to that picture quality for ages. If they'd make a 43" I'd honestly probably go that route but oled and scaling = rip to smaller sizes.
Not to mention just on the surface $1500 for a 48" TV is still overpriced.

Yea 27" is the max for me. I sit so close to my monitor, anything bigger would be way to much screen to keep my eyes on
Posted on 9/2/20 at 1:51 pm to bluebarracuda
Yeah I'm team 27" max as well. I mean I'd do a 32" if I had to to get what I want but prefer 27".
Posted on 9/2/20 at 1:52 pm to UltimateHog
32 seems perfect for me. I read that it was bare minimum what you want for 4k
Posted on 9/2/20 at 1:54 pm to Carson123987
27" is fine for 4K, you'll find plenty that prefer it to 32" as you will the other way around. Higher PPI, clearer text to name a few reasons. Also depends on how far away you sit.
decent thread on it
