2160p resolution?

[okboomer]

If there is a gaming pc with an rtx 3090 then can you set a youtube video's resolution to 2160p?

You can do that with a lot less of a GPU. And it doesn't make a ton of difference unless you have 4K monitor to go with it.

what happens if you use a 8k monitor?

and you mean I can use any gpu?

Yeah, you dont need that. I can watch a 4k(20160p)60 video on a school issued chromebook with a celeron n4000 and 2gb lpddr4.

I dont think 8k youtube is a thing. I cant even choose 8k on videos.

and yeah, only cpu and ram really matters for video streaming.

It was in beta afaik, but i havent seen em beyond certain MKBHD video, atleast in the actual content level instead of just showreels.

And yes, its a PURE tough cookies to run without or with HW acceleration, i remember back in pascal days people with even SLI 1080 and a 7700K struggling to keep away the framerate drop in 8K youtube videos.

It is a thing actually. Very rare I believe, but it exists. Example:

 

That is the only video I've seen with such quality and it doesn't even run on my PCs.

I remember when Youtube first beta-ed 4K video and I tried it on my Pentium 4 desktop. I averaged something like one frame every 10 seconds or so.

It runs fine with a GTX 1080 ti but the image looks the same as 4k on my 4k TV.

So, in all seriousness, a lot of GPU can run YouTube 8K, just needs hardware decoder afaik

Not too familiar with that much, but it doesn't make sense that YouTube develop things that no one can use

[Kilrah]

This 8K60 HDR runs fine in Chrome with no CPU usage here... the 3080's video decoder is at 70% utilization though.
