Considering buying a new, quality monitor for working at home, on Windows.
Probably a Dell P2415Q, which is 24" 4K IPS, and about £350.
I play the (increasingly) occasional game on current 1920 x 1080 screen, don't expect PC to run higher resolutions well. The GPU can output 4k OK though.
If I just set Windows to 1920 x 1080 when required, that would seem to just map 4 screen pixels to 1 game pixel, as 3840 x 2160 is exactly twice as many pixels in both directions.
Surprised to realise I've had my PC (except GPU) and FHD monitor since 2011. The days of everything doubling in performance/capacity/pixels every 2 years or so are long gone.

Which seems neat... or is not that simple?
