it's because it doesn't have HDR. which doesn't work in linux with amd anyway. FUCK NVIDIA :up-yours-woke-moralists:
it's better because it supports MST - the displayport protocol that allows daisychaining. the equivalent 2022 monitor costs double the price lmaoooooo I don't game :hentai-free: and HDR is something I have literally never seen or used so I don't fucking care. I got exactly what I wanted.
4k is such a waste for gaming outside of VR, especially if you don't have displayport or hdmi2.1.
Keep your fucking pixels. I'd rather play at 120hz.
I prefer 4k but not for gaming pixels. it's cause I want to fit more code on the screen and fonts are noticeably blurry at 1920x1080p. at 4k, I might have to size up my fonts a little but I can fit more on the screen and avoid eyestrain.
This is why I like 3440x1440 ultrawide, it's so much screen real estate in 2.35:1 like the film nerds love, obviates multi monitor setups, and it's still fewer pixels to drive than 4k.
