Ok, so I’ve lost all confidence in Kelly and John but for you to fail me Dave!
Seriously? If something can drive 2 4k monitors it should be able to drive 1 8k monitor. Hearing you say that was so painful that I pleaded to my radio for John to step in an help you.
1080p or 2k monitors are 1/4 the number of pixels as 4k monitors because it is not just twice the pixels across it is twice the pixels high as well. The same is true 4k to 8k.
