We're not going to see a major jump in resolution until cables improve and higher pixel density becomes cheaper.


Just to add to this, we know AMD cards can drive up to 24576000 pixels (2560x1600 x 6) so it's definitely not the cards ( Nv cards could do this to if they had the same display output functionality)
