1.3K

You may have heard of 1080p / 1440p if not 4k (especially tvs or televisions) and so on, but I decided to lay it out to make it easier or as easy for people to understand.

480 x 360 ---------- .48k ------------ 360p

640 x 480 ---------- .64k ------------ 480p

1280 x 720 -------- 1.28k ----------- 720p

1920 x 1080 ------ 1.92k (2k) ----- 1080p ----- not true 2k

2560 x 1440 ------ 2.56k (2.5k) -- 1440p ----- true 2.5k

3840 x 2160 ------ 3.84k (4k) ---- 2160p ----- not true 4k

5120 x 2880 ----- 5.12k (5k) ----- 2880p ----- true 5k

7680 x 4320 ----- 7.68k (8k) ----- 4320p ----- 7.5k or true 7.5k to me personally, but definitely not true 8k if you were to put it in the 8k realm...

"True" is another term as well... 3840 x 2160 is technically (3.84k and not 4k so it's "truly" not "4k" at that point). 3.84k is very common though and rounds up to 4k.

4096 x 2160 - 4k (over 4k or true 4k not 3.84k or under 4k) - 2160p

True 4k is 4096 x 2160 to me personally.

7680 x 4320 - to me this is 7.5k not 8k since it rounds down closer to 7.5k than up to 8k (over / under - 7.75k - 7,750)

True 8k would be 8,000 or above 8,000.

Left side is where you get 2k, 2.5k, 4k, 5k, and/or 8k. Right side is where you get 1080p, 1440p, 2160p, 2880p, and/or 4320p.

2k (1080p)

2.5k (1440p)

4k (2160p)

5k (2880p)

8k (4320p)

This does not include wide screens or it would be basically a 3.5k (widescreen) type situation going or something else like that.

Let me know if I got something wrong. Also it's never perfect (basically), but this shows a wide range at least to me personally.

I should let the 7.5k go though before I go into full geek if not full nerd or both being... Grandmaster G/N (Geek / Nerd) combo...

It's just not worth it...

It's "True 7.5k" (7680x4320) to me though.

Not true this, not true that. Next thing you'll tell me is that my 1 terabyte drive doesnt have 1024 gigabytes of storage room!

[–] [deleted] • 2 pts

960 GB type stuff or whatever plus other parts are used if not 1024 (completely 1024 GB) gigabytes or true 1024 gigabyte - 1 terabyte hard drives.

Exabyte hard drives and zettabyte hard drives. It's a major problem. This one guy was trying to sell me a 700 exabyte hard drive as a zettabyte hard drive.

I just said I'm yotta (yottabyte) here at that point.

but true what you said.

Damn, when my printer won't print, I know who to call !

I can't stand regular paper printers. There's so many drivers for printers alone and even the same company basically has a different one for each printer if not a bunch of printers within in a group, but the company has drivers for all of them alone and even then they still act up or something isn't working very well.

paper printers are terrible. I think mine has a USB and I think that's the way standard paper printers should go or something should be that way at least since I don't want to hassle with it every time I want to print and such.

My 3D printer works just fine if I hook up a USB and tell it what to print. Makes me want to do that with a regular paper printer and not to deal and/or hassle with anything alone at that point.
