TigressLion Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I have never played any Project Car games but I thought 12k was enough to talk about. Granted it requires 3 4k monitors as it states 12K resolution will also be a feature if you're plush enough to have three 4K monitors that you can string together. Anyone gonna utilise this feature? http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-02-09-project-cars-2-officially-breaks-cover-will-support-12k-and-vr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaivRules Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 That's awesome! GT5 would support up to 5 horizontal monitors, but required 5 PS3s and 5 copies of the game. http://www.gran-turismo.com/us/support/02_0005539.html If this drives off one system and one copy of the game, that's some crazy video chip performance, but it'll definitely get used by more people.

soniq Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 So it supports 4K resolution an three monitors for a resolution of 11520 x 2160. Not really 12K (11520 x 6480) and not the first racing game to support multiple monitors on PC, but it helps with the marketing I guess. Don't really care about the game, nor have a computer that will be able to run it at it's lowest setting, but cool for people who own the necessary hardware. Should be amazing with a proper wheel and racing seat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say skip the monitor and hook you PC up to 3 50 inch 4k TV's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be amazing with a proper wheel and racing seat! When they started with the whole 4K is now measured ONLY horizontally I said the same thing. It's not really 4K (it's 3.84K), but since everyone bought into that, anyone that refers to 3.84K as 4K, will now buy into 11.52K is 12K. Everyone is getting ripped off on their K's and no one is angry about it except soniq! #triggered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntenseFATE98 Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Well, 8K required four 4K monitors and barely worked. The 12K they're talking about isn't really 12K, I guess o.O 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's 4K, then there's 4K UHD. 4K is supposed to be 4 thousand (ish) lines of resolution. 4K UHD is 3840 × 2160, because that accounts for the vertical resolution. 8K UHD is 4x4K UHD, but 8K again just refers to 8 thousand (ish) lines of resolution. In the case of Project Cars 2, they are in fact referring to 12 thousand (ish) lines of resolution. It's not 12K UHD, but how the heck else should they refer to 12 thousand lines of resolution?

I've seen tech sites name it as Triple 4K (11,520x2160). Native 8K is 7680x4320, Cinema 4K is 4096x[unspecified] and 4K UHD is 3840x2160. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
