Given you said you use 1440p monitors yourself, I think there is a misunderstanding somewhere here, because 2K is just a less commonly used term for 1440p. And 1440p is definitely a bit more than just "a few more pixels" compared to 1080p (iirc around 78% more).
- ziml77 5y agoSince when is 2K used to mean 1440p? 1440p 16:9 gives a horizontal resolution of 2560px. That's more than what is considered 2K, which is generally either 1920px or 2048px.
- filoleg 5y ago> Since when is 2K used to mean 1440p? No idea, since I haven't seen the term 2K being used much at all in the wild. So I simply googled that term, and it seems to be overwhelmingly used to refer to 2560x1440.
