We don't live in a perfect infinite world, where one can just put work and work on components and these will respond and do the job. You don't have to own a 4K TV or HDMI 2.0 to experience 4K "quality", or notice a difference between 1080 and 4K. BTW if you don't have a 4K monitor / TV you won't be able to see 4K UHD output so there's no point in doing the test !!!! That's actually not correct. I have to laugh at people with crappy small screen mobile phones watching 4K video (and in PORTRAIT mode as well !!!!) well it's like "Bookies going bust" as who'se ever heard of a poor ISP / phone company supplying all that unnecessary bandwidth !!!! and reaping in the "shekels" by the truckload. I can't say if I'm at a computer with my nose near some screens that I'd want to look at a huge 4k monitor - watching on a decent TV a distance away from the screen is IMO the way to go. The software in the SKY Q box also does all the hard bits and just presents the video stream to your TV. Load the Youtube video up on to the fire TV box.īTW those who have got the latest SKY Q (4k UHD capable) boxes (mainly UK, R.O.I, Germany, Belgium - ROI boxes there and Italy) can simply use the Youtube built in app. I use an amzon fire TV stick so all the hard work is done by the amazon fire TV box.īTW if you don't have a 4K monitor / TV you won't be able to see 4K UHD output so there's no point in doing the test !!!! You mean we should select 4K video? Or use 4K TV's or monitors? I don't understand at all what you are trying to say in your second sentence. The clear bottleneck here is the CPU, the GPU's hardly reach 30% of usage, in the PC's I've used to do this test.
The GPU is not a game changer, I know this because I don't get that much difference in frame drops if I use, under the same PC, the video decoded with an HD 4600 (integrated Intel "crap") and a GT 755 (crappy nowadays, but way more powerful than Intel's). What? I didn't understand much of your message. Just like a good 4K television - distance is your friend. 4K video is nice, but sitting right in front of a display is a bit overkill if it is too expensive. Your GPU can help if your browser or app has hardware acceleration, but keep in mind it's a CPU intensive task."Īctually, the GPU is the game changer. "Online video decoding is handled mostly by your CPU, so it's the CPU the one that must be powerful.
