True, but the PC outputs 4k to 3 screen (different image on each screen), effectively outputting a resolution of 12k

No, because it's missing the vertical resolution.

4k is 4096 × 2304, but 8k is not 8192 x 2304 (two 4096 screen next to each other), it's 8192 × 4608 (two next to each other, and on top of each other).

I don't know what 12k is, but I assume it's and extra row and column, but these people who make the "standards" like to fuck shit up.

He jokingly said "Suck it, consoles".
Hurry, GAF! Time to freak out, call him a manchild and being needlessly over-defensive about it!

 

[WarlockTheWise]

This thread is hilarious.

 

[King_Moc]

I'me not keen on using multiple monitors, due to the gaps in the screen, but i'd still love to experience this.

I don't get the people complaining about the cost. Just put your own budget out of the picture and assume that the guy that did it can actually afford it. Or are people not allowed to spend their on money?

 

[Zabant]

Thread is hilarious, on both sides. Good to know there are still hyper defensive platform warriors on GAF

 

[Stallion Free]

More salt in here than the next 5 years for Nvidia.

Eh, the video would have been better off without that little comment.

I look forward to seeing the thread when someone makes a 9-4k screen array and causes the Raiders-of-the-Lost-Ark effect on all who behold its glory.

 

[Phamit]

Well didnt help improve the players driving skills

 

[nikos]

ROFL @ "Suck it, consoles!"

Amazing.

12K? Pffft

This was ~32K in 2009.

 

[MR BLACKMAGIK]

"Suck it consoles" right because every pc gamer has this...

 

[Dennis]

 

[yatesl]

I'm actually surprised that 4x Titans can run that resolution.

Also, did a really quick mock up of what COULD be inside (choosing almost the cheapest options, aside from the case). It came to $6636.86, excluding the screens, keyboard, etc.

32k on a 360p Youtube video, there' some joke to make here, but I can't figure it out.

 

[Camp Lo]

Was the suck it consoles part of the video necessary?

 

[Schnozberry]

Buy a PS4, and spend the rest of your 20k on a car you can actually race around a track.

 

[jim-jam bongs]

[Mononoke]

Going to buy three Vizio 4K TVs and duct tape them together.

Downsampling bro. I see you didnt take offense to downsampling from 12K to 1080p.

 

[jWILL253]

This thread smells funny...

 

[Majine]

I'm happy with my technically inferior but subjectively better games.

 

[Captain Tuttle]

Dude sounds like a complete douche

Only because he's not in cockpit mode.

 

[coughlanio]

That PC probably costs more than a PS4 plus a generations worth of AAA games at full retail pricing.

I don't think "suck it consoles" applies here.

 

[culafia]

The game looks great. Hopefully we'll see something similar this gen. The lighting and shadows were phenomenal.

 

[Granadier]

A conservative guesstimate.

At least most of it has free shipping!!!!

You should contact the guy who made the video and ask him to make a public apology. It might help if you tell him that he "shot himself in the foot", and that "honour and shame" are huge parts of "gamer culture".

It's running on an Ivy Bridge-E

12K? Pffft

This was ~32K in 2009.

How is that "~32K"? It's just slightly wider than what 12K would be, and significantly shorter. It's more pixels than this youtube video by far, but still a bit below what 12K would typically be in terms of pixels-per-frame.

It would have to be at least 8 times larger before it could start getting into the "~32K" realm.

 

[jim2point0]

well........ this thread got awful fast.

When did GAF get so god damned whiny?

I..... I don't know. This thread.... ugh.

Do these people also complain about how much it costs to buy and drive around in an Aston Martin Vanquish because their ford fusion can also get them from point A to point B?

Yes, it's an expensive machine and not at all necessary. But looks FUN AS HELL and ffs I WANT ONE. And if I could afford it, I'd have one. The computer, not the car. Actually no, I'd have both.

I'm commander shepard and this is the saltiest thread on the citadel.

I wonder though, at what rate can you mine bitcoins with this beast of a setup.

 

[Saint Gregory]

Well, he told us

Well he told you maybe. *rubs PC*

This made my day, that penguin has my vote in 2016.

 

[Zemm]

And yet it only looks marginally better than GT6.

It's ok bro.

 

[CornBurrito]

The "suck it consoles" bit it just so odd. Do PC gamers only consider those with the highest end rigs to be true PC gamers? Like do they wonder why anyone would bother with a lower end or mid level rig?

 

[Zabant]

Bitcoin mining is out of control these days, you need farms of computers for it to be even profitable.

What? Even to entertain this, he said consoles, not low end PCs so why assume otherwise?

 

[francisnobleman]

Typical PC master race loser. PC most likely costs 6000$ alone, plus the 3 4k 65' Screens, looking at like what 13,000$? So like 30 PS4s....

Because 30 PS4's can be put together to play games at 12K.

Lol. Don't be mad at a hardware demonstration dudes, it's a demo.


Do you get mad that Koenigsegg cars make your car look like a playmobil toy ?

 

[Majine]

I wonder if the guy felt sad in his soul when he got back to his own PC after that.

Eh....you don't want to mine cryptocurrency with nvidia cards. They are terrible for it.

So dumb, who would build such a big building what a waste of money idiots!!!



No mainstream homeowner could even afford that pyramid so stupid



Uhhh I bought a wall for like $10 and it's literally identical you cannot tell a difference??

Probably because it's like someone is pointing at these and saying your house/apartment can "suck it" and you're going "dude what the hell?"

He does sound kind of like in the rest of the video anyway though.
