Does 1080p look as good on a 4k screen as it does narrative ?

Also how is 1440p on a 4k screen compared to 1440p narrative ?

I'm not asking does 1080p look like 4k dsr just to save confusion just how do lower resolutions look on a 4k screen

How do things look narrative?

Haha kiding, yeah, should look the same, it's just that four pixels act as one

Edit: so you are just having less definition

1440p wouldn't fit on a 4k screen without blacking out/stretching would it? As its 16:10?

It's in the FAQ at the top of this section. Depends on the monitor.
