What display resolution are you using?

[ARF]

I am using a 4K 3840x2160 as my primary display resolution.
I see that this 3840x2160, together with 2560x1440 are on the rise in the Steam Hardware Survey, while 1920x1080 is on the decline.

Steam Hardware & Software Survey (steampowered.com)

There is a poll, please vote.

1080p desktop resolution on 2 computers, 2160p gaming resolution on primary computer. If i use 4k desktop the icons go all wonky and if I reboot with a 4k desktop the icons all disappear.

Go windows!

Changing the resolution and scaling on a desktop for the first time always changes the location of the icons.
Once you arrange them as wanted, they stay and behave normally.

I haven't experienced any issues with the desktop icons while changing the scaling or resolution.

Actually just noticed the wonky icons are gone everything looks normal on 4k with 200% scaling now except 1080p only gui's like the nvidia control panel which looks tiny in 4k.

3840x1080 as I have 2x 1080p monitors. But for gaming, 1080p with both on my main and HTPC systems. I'll get a 4K monitor next.

 

[rethcirE]

1080p for me. I am still an old relic using 17.3" laptop display and 24" external display with native 1080p on both.

 

[lmille16]

1440p on the primary. 1080p on the 2nd

 

[Kapone33]

1440P for most Gaming, 4K TV for Eye candy.

I have an EIZO CS 240.
The resolution is 1920x1200(16:10).
So I can't vote.

 

[Sithaer]

I'm in the entry level 29" 2560x1080 UltraWide gang so I can't vote either.

Vote for the closest relative.

This is more like 1920x1080, too... Or 2560x1440, you choose.

Uhm, not really. Ultrawide resolutions like this are in a different ballpark than FHD or QHD. You're horizontally stretching things but keeping the other side fixed there. So it's technically neither one of them, but it's closer to FHD than QHD.

Personally I like to call it FHD Ultrawide but the performance hit is between 1920x1080 and 2560x1440, my general rule and experience is ~10 FPS less than FHD.

Yes, the pixel density on the display is the same as if 1920x1080.

 

[sam_86314]

3440x1440 on my main system. 1920x1080 on my laptop and testing system.

 

[freeagent]

3840x2160 on my rig and 1920x1080 on the kids rig.

1920x1080p on my 24" monitor for gaming and stuff (14 years old)
1920x1080p on my 43" TV for movies. (10 years old)

Hi,
All my wallpapers dictate my resolution

 

[UwuCurlyWurly]

Main is 1920x1080p 60Hz (AOC e2450Swda) and the second one is 1280x1024p 75Hz (have it since 2007, Philips 190S)

 

[Frick]

3840x2160 60hz 32" for the main and 1920x1080 60hz 24" for the second one.

Isn't it time to upgrade? Almost all new TVs in the higher range today are sold as 4K Ultra HD, while a 14-year-old PC desktop monitor is not first youth, either

 

[GerKNG]

i have/had two 4K 144Hz Monitors and recently a 1440p 165Hz and 240Hz.

i still have a 280Hz 1080p Monitor for esports but i just hate 1080p after using 4K

 

[X71200]

It actually seems to be the screen estate that I don't dig with the 1080p panel I have (Gigabyte G24 170 Hz). It's very snappy, significantly faster than my Ultrawide... but is also a lot smaller so my eyes are more used to the UW.

Believe me I know. I even have some preferences of what I would replace them with but it's just not at the top of my list right now.
