so you've tried all of G-Sync, 4K monitors and triple monitors to state your preference?

IMO, 8K is where the "CRT to HDTV" like paradigm shift will occur.
launch vs mainstream is a huge difference...1080p came out what...early 2000's? To this day there's still no 1080p broadcast.

there's usually a solid 5-10 years before a resolution gains widespread acceptance.
