Why is 4K * 16 = 16K and not 64K?

Hi, so after linus posted a video of 16K desk pc, I wondered why 16 4K monitors arent 64K in total. Again earlier, he did 8K gaming, which was 4 * 4K monitors (so shouldn't it be 16K)? Am I just stupid or is it really labeled wrong?

 

Because 16 is 4x4, so you need 4 monitors in each direction. If they had used the new Dell 8k monitor, it would have been 2x2 because 16 is 8x2.

nah, HD is pretty strictly defined as 1280 x 720, FHD is pretty strictly defined as 1920 x 1080, and QHD which stands for Quad-HD also comes up as a quadrupled HD which becomes 2560 x 1440 and the UHD which is actually 3840 x 2160 (and has nothing to do with 4K which refers to 4096 x 2160)

 

The letters mean everything:

you don't have much experience with consumer law or marketing then I guess. Even in Australia where consumer law is probably the best in the world (IMHO), letters get thrown around like they are everything but mean very little.  I can argue in court that in my marketing material "UHD" has a different meaning than yours, you always need to look for the fine print..  But you can't argue that stating a resolute number is anything but that number.   if the box says resolution = 1080p then that screen has to have a resolution on one of its sides or in total of that resolution.  If it says UHD,  then they only have to give a reasonable explanation of what UHD means in their material, it doesn;t even have to relate to the screen. There is no law regarding the use of those letters, there are not copyrights or trademarks on those letters.

fite me

[Mira Yurizaki]

Because "4K" is measuring the supposed number of pixels width wise. Putting 4x4 4K monitors only gets you 16K worth of pixels in width.

 

And even then, you're only quadrupling the resolution in this setup.

u'd have to come up with a great story to justify the reason why you put some willy nilly letters that reference an actual TV standart that's been around for almost 15 years

you can't slap UHD on a screen for the same reason you can't say that a Volkswagen does 95g CO₂ per 100km....

 

oh wait...

 

 

 

 

and you can't put TDi on a car if it's not powered by a Turbocharged Direct injection turbodiesel engine

 

would you be okay buying a 1080p monitor and receiving a 1440 x 1080 screen?

As I said, UHD is not a trademark or logo, you can put whatever letters you want on a package.  VW is a trademark.  You do know the difference between three letters and a trademark yes? I can put UHD on a box and call it ultra honest display in the fine print.  Not a legal thing you can do about it.

 

Businesses all over the world sell products that are not up to the standards insinuated on the box.   Free range eggs is a good example, along with organic and pesticide free BS.

by that logic - what's preventing me to put 1080p and call it "ten eighty pascal" - as in it's compatible with GTX 1080, or maybe "1080 power" as in this display consumes 1080W of power or maybe "1080 puppies" - as in this display was made with love and 1080 puppies have peed on it from happines

Lets compare those two then:

 

1080p resolution (power).    How is 1080 watts of power related to resolution?  can't be legitimately explained so no legal standing.

1080p resolution (pascal).  you'd have to prove there was something in this display that makes it specifically compatible that any other 1080p branded tv would otherwise not be.              therefore no legal standing.

 

no the only argument for labeling something with a resolution of "1080p resolution" is that it actually has a resolution of 1080 pixels.

 

Not even going to address puppies.  This is a cat-centric forum, dogs need not apply.

 

How about UHD:

UHD Resolution.   what is ultra honest display resolution?  it is the resolution of the input signal being reproduced honestly on the screen.  this = legal even if it is morally corrupt.

 

 

EDIT: I really feel like I have to add this,  I don't actually expect to see a real world example of this in shops, maybe online like a Chinese fleabay store at the worst, but because 4k panels are so easy to manufacture there is no need to re-brand a lower res and pass it off as something better.   The point I am trying to make is one of legalities and trademark law.  And a way to make it easier for consumers to know exactly what they are buying without having to look for fine print.

Pls stop break me brain.

This is beyond ridiculous.

 

 

how are you going to "prove there was something in this display that makes it specifically honest that any other UHD branded tv"?

 

And when you put UHD on the TV, did you honestly (pardon the pun) believe that this is what customers are going to deduce from it?

Either way I'm pretty sure there's a law and an institution (like FCC) behind it that will not let you use "UHD" or "1080p" on your products that do not comply with the standart, just the same way as you can't use "broadband connection" for a 56k dial up.

Because you are trying to insinuate that defined numbers can have other meanings. When you say 1080p resolution.  then that is an absolute number that relates to the resolution of the screen, in order to argue it might relate to anything else means you have to prove so.  Proving that it only refers to being compatible with another product that bares the 1080 number is not enough. 

 

So again, you are confusing a trademark with three letters.  I'm sorry you don't understand how consumer law works in most countries. 

 

Let me break it down one more time:

 

You can't put this logo on a box unless it meets the resolutions requirements.

 

You can put this set of letters on your box regardless, so long as you have fine print explaining what UHD means in terms of the enclosed product. 

 

 

That is how marketing works, that is why there is a trademark system and why it is called 4K and DCI4K and not just UHD.

I have no clue where you got that black and white logo from,

but if you reverse search on the black and gold image that's literally what they use for

 defined and approved by the

International Telecommunication Union (ITU).[ 

also

The Consumer Electronics Association announced on October 17, 2012, that "Ultra High Definition", or "Ultra HD", would be used for displays that have an aspect ratio of 16:9 or wider and at least one digital input capable of carrying and presenting native video at a minimum resolution of 3840×2160 pixels

http://www.digitaleurope.org/Services/High-Definition-Logos/UHD

it's a trademarked logo that requires you to agree to specific terms about your product before you can use it. Unlike just using the letters UHD, which can be defined as just about anything the manufacturer wants.  Just becasue dibAustralia use it to mean 4K, doesn't mean it has a legal obligation to.  Their logo is not tied to a contractual definition outside their company.

 

 

Not sure why you don't understand this simple distinction.

okay, so for your all the resolutions - 1440x1080, 1600x1080 and 1920x1080 are  all accepted as 1080p.

When you buy a product that says it's 1080p, how do you know what you're buying?

 

if you go around and ask people what do they think UHD means in regards to display, do you expect that the majority will respond with "Honest Display"? or would you be more inclined to believe that most people will agree upon "3840x2160"?

And with this knowledge in mind, when you put "Ultra Honest Display" on a monitor, when you go around and ask the same people, do you think they will agree that you had ill intent and were trying to trick people into thinking your monitor was "3840x2160"? - If your answer is yes, then you broke consumer laws in most of the capitalist world, regardless of if you had the fine-print or not - you can't fine-print every word intentionally misleading customers, that's anti-consumerism. On the other hand if your answer is no, and you still believe that stating 1080p is different from stating FHD then you're just delusional.

 

And have you noticed that DigitalEurope.org still calls it UHD? Maybe there's a reason? Maybe that's the actual name of the spec? OMG...

 

Why do you not acknowledge common resolutions?

I thought you enjoyed reading it, that was the only reason I kept it going

Yea its kinda steange. The K bit is usually the pixel dimension from left to right. The p bit is from top to bottom afaik. Assuming all dimensions i list below are in 16/9 format:

 

1080p = 1920x1080

1440p = 2560x1440p

4k = 2160p = 3840x2160 

 

are usually the most common things i hear about monitors usually talk . Putting ultrawide as a niche things aside since pricewise isnt as cheap compared to most standard 16/9! Panels

 

funny why they dont use 2k and 2.5k for the smaller resolutions... maybe one n twos dont sound nice with k? Idk

[xsimplyjosh]

But to answer ur question its actually more of 3840x4 = 15360 pixels but rounded to 16k for simplicity reasons

 

the k specifies the thousand of pixels horizontally* Pretty much. Hence why not 64k but 16k.
