The war for resolution It is still quite raw in the territory of PC gaming, so much so that never before have companies focused so much on offering spectacular returns, despite the fact that all this ends up having a price, and it is quite high. The reality is that PC gaming is in full swing, never before have so many people played or invested so much money in the industry, which is why there is a growing market in all areas around.
But there will always be eccentrics, a clear example is that of this YouTube channel that wanted to experience what would happen if we chose to run a game in 16K, almost four times the highest resolution standardized so far. If you want to see the result, do not miss the video that is inside this post.
They have finally assembled a territory of 132,7 MP, 16K total effective resolution thanks to a total of 16 4K monitors that have been properly connected to four Nvidia Quadro P500 graphics cards and the Synergy system, a tool that allows us to transmit the image we want to multiple screens. The result has been a very impressive but not very effective mosaic of screens, perhaps it is not the most pleasant to play with so much loose frame.
The monitors chosen for the task are the Make Predator XB1 4K, with 3840 × 2160 resolution at 60Hz, a total of 15.360 × 8640 pixels no more, no less. It is true that it is not the most dedicated graphics card for gaming, but it is one of the professional range that has allowed this spectacular task. Perhaps what is clear is that Minecraft is not the most suitable game if we want to enjoy realistic panoramas, but in the video they also test Civilization V or Half Life 2. We hope you liked the curious note of the day.
