I stand corrected, TY.
Tensor cores do do DLSS
but don't seem to be needed now after FSR 2.0

Well it's going to be interesting. You can clearly see DLSS 2.3 doing a better job when it's working with less(Just look at the Performance modes @ 1080p). But that's also where DLSS 2.x has made it's biggest improvements over time. So it will be interesting to see if FSR 2.x also manages to improve over time there as well.
Yup, interesting to see how we're moving into a world where graphics are not necessarily connected to resolution. If nothing else, beyond ensuring that you always have an attractive image on your monitor even if it was rendered at a non-native resolution, that will be huge. But of course, creating images that look higher-res than the render is amazing.

Doubt that, time and $ they would not want to spend.
y'know, I dumped my 4k monitor for a 1440p, and I've never been happier.
- Windows always had janky scaling problems, where desktop icons were way too small unless I pumped up the scaling to 150%, but lots of games didn't display properly unless I switched back to 100%, so I'm constantly having to change and manage my scaling options. Everything just works right at 1440p.
- 1440p monitor includes freesync, 144hz, HDR, ultra-wide aspect, etc.
- Much easier to hit native res targets in games.
- I can barely tell the difference in resolution anyway.
- Frankly, I think I'd prefer 1080p at high refresh rates than 4k at 60hz. Sorry if that's offensive.
So basically, yeah I'm in no hurry to run out and buy an 8k display.
Don't get me wrong, I'd love the extra resolution, someday when I can get it without all the other compromises.

I did the same thing lol. Had a basic 4k mon at 60hz then a better mon at 1440p came around 165 hz freesync premium pro 10 bit color and higher contrast and brighter panel and its way better.
I wouldnt go to 8k at 60hz for sure. But 120hz with freesync and other good set of features Ill try it.

Well like I said, there's a bunch of stuff I'd need to switch to a 4k/8k monitor.
- Better support in Windows for determining how to scale desktop stuff vs not scale game stuff, so I'm not constantly having to manually switch from 500% scale on the desktop to 100% scale for games... with that large of difference, it's going to be tricky even navigating the graphics scaling options to change them.
- Yeah, 120hz or higher is a must. I'm loving my 144hz, but I'd love to see what a 250hz monitor looks like too.
- A powerful enough GPU to drive an 8k image (even with next-gen scaling techniques) at a reasonable price. This is a big reason to stick with my current 1440p setup.
Related topic, I really think we're moving into a new phase of graphics. Detaching render resolution from display resolution is going to make such a massive difference, even beyond giving you higher details. Just making sure that images look good on your screen. But of course getting higher details for less GPU power is a gigantic optimization.
I also keep expecting that we might start to see more VR-style frame interpolation making its way into PC & console games. Imagine that every 30fps game now runs at 60fps, every 60fps game now runs at 120fps, etc. Lower fps games will still have higher input latency, but otherwise they can present as if they were high fps.
I also expect we're going to see the upcoming AMD Privacy View quickly turn into foveated rendering. We'll see how well it works with a standard webcam. But even if you had to spend $300+ for a specialized eye-tracking camera, foveated rendering is going to be an absolutely MASSIVE improvement in graphics performance.
Stack all 3 of these on top of each other: Next-gen upscaling + foveated rendering + advanced frame doubling, and we're likely looking at a 10x improvement in graphics performance. I think we're going to be blown away by what's possible on current-gen graphics hardware. Much closer to photo-realism than we realize... heck we might even get close on portable devices like Steam Deck.

Im aiming for summer 2023. Next xmas will be the main 8k tv bustout so summer 23 should see some decent offerings. I had a 28" 4k mon and it was ok at 150% desktop scaling and this is a 32" 1440p and didnt feel the need to change anything in the gui.
Id have to say an 8k mon would have to be in the 43" range at least.
In terms of next gen Ive played around with the Unreal 5 demos and they blew me away. Highly recommended if you can to try it out.
