Yes, 8k @ 120Hz is 120Hz. Did I ever imply anything else? And who brought up 8k @ 120Hz?
I've been talking about 8k @ 60Hz and 4k @ 240Hz, because those are the same data rate; 1 990 656 000 pixels per second. One expressed as 7680 x 4320 x 60, the other expressed as 3840 x 2160 x 240.
What does any of this have to do with upscaling?
- tosti 5mo agoBecause an 8K pixel display is always 8K. So the display on a typical TV always has the same mode. That could mean your 4K@120 signal could (in theory) translate to 8K@60 internally. The data rate over HDMI would still be the same. HDMI is just an interface. What the TV does internally is up to the manufacturer. Besides, it wouldn't be the first time a TV advertises a higher mode than the display can actually handle.
- mort96 5mo agoWho mentioned 4k@120? How could 4k@120 be translated to 8k@60 internally? 8k@60 is twice the number of pixels per second as 4k@120. I still have no idea what you're trying to say.
- tosti 5mo agoYou're either being overly pedantic or are just refusing to acknowledge the point I'm trying to make. I'll just not bother anymore because it's a waste of time.
- mort96 5mo agoBrother I don't know what point you're trying to make, I don't understand what you mean by upscaling in this context and what some internal format conversion is meant to accomplish or why one would want that. What does internally converting 4k @ 240 to 8k @ 60 accomplish that just outputting 8k @ 60 directly from the computer wouldn't accomplish?
