4k or not to 4k
« on: November 18, 2016, 07:23:03 PM »
I have bought a 4k TV.

It is an inch bigger than my last non 4k (and therfore useless non 4k) tv.

I have upgrded my Xbox One to an Xbox one plus thingy that has 4k output I think, though i could be wrong.

Right...

Ready....

Go on then....

 tunble:

Battlefield 1 is pretty good though.

 :thumbsup:

The local independent games shop has had so many people trading in their old PS4's for the new all singing all dancing ones that he is selling them pre-owned for around £120 (a lot of them still within their warranty) just to clear some storage space....

4K is like 3D, doesn't seem to work on me.....

Bloody difficult in places but damn good. Just found out that my pc, despite being so old that Dell don't make the model anymore, is happily running it.  cloud9:

A cautious  :thumbsup:  What you going to use as 4k signal?

Please don't do what my brother did.  Bought an HD TV and for years fed it with a SCART lead  ::).  Then bought a 4K TV but still drives it through an HD only box  ::).

Well, whatever, nevermind
