Asus shows super-HD gaming

Pretttty cool but im not quite clear how this works out...

Obviously 800x600 looks like crap on a 1900x1200 monitor. No one however is saying 1900x1080p looks like crap on any size screen, as long as you stay far enough away from it. So what does 3840x2160 do for you then? Allow you to sit closer to a bigger screen while still looking sharp? Isn't that bad for your eyes anyway?

I guess you could see better detail from farther away on bigger screens? Sort of like the when does 1080p over 720p become worth it argument?
 
I have a hard time telling the difference from a 19" running 1440x900 and a 24" running 1920x1200 long as it's running native resolution. You just get more real estate with 24" obviously...

I remember running my old CRT trying to run higher resolutions because the graphics became more detailed. CRT pixel pitch tightens when you run higher resolutions but it's not the case with LCD. LCDs have a certain pixel pitch at native resolution. Anything lower it looks like crap.

 
It really depends on the size of the screen. The picture makes it look like something along the lines of a 30" screen, so it probably looks gorgeous. Of course, you'd need a lot of video card muscle behind that.
