One has to start to wonder - when will the push to increase screen resolution end up the same way the push to increase megapixels on cameras did? Surely 8k on a 32" screen has to be pushing the realms of what could ever possibly be noticeable to the human eye at realistic viewing distances?

Well, the Asus (and Acer) G-Sync monitor revealed at CES is 4K at 27", also a very high ppi.

The thing is that we're talking about PC monitors, there's a point where you can't make them bigger without losing practicality.

To me, that point is 27" (or 34" Ultrawide monitors).

Eh, that 8K monitor has a 275 PPI, that is quite a bit more than the 163 PPI of those 4K monitors.
