    When I look at the poll the title still says "Which mythological world would you rather ...", which was the last poll.

    Anyway. 1920x1080 for the most parts. I found that if I run things larger it just ment that I had to make things larger, to be able to read it, so I didn't really get that much more screen. Also it's a matter of available desk space.

    I have had several 4K screens over the past 5 years or so, but they always seem somewhat technically challenged when running at 4K either sensitive to cable issues, or graphics driving issues or other things that are just working 4x as hard to get what is a barely marginally noticeable improvement in picture quality. I run most of my 4K screens at 1920x1080 most of the time. Same for video surveillance cameras - sure, they _can_ stream 4K but is it really any more useful than 1080p? 99% of the time, no - although I do wish that my 4K cameras would allow me to digital-zoom select the 1080p frame that they stream - that would be useful.
