At CES 2017, Dell has unveiled yet another addition to their monitor product line, and this one is drool worthy: an 8K, 32" UltraSharp monitor, with an insanely high resolution of 7,680 x 4,320 at 60Hz. Labeled as the world's first 32-inch 8K resolution display with Dell PremierColor, the UP3218K offers 1.07 billion colors and packs in more than 33 million pixels - four times as many as a 4K display and 16 times more than Full HD. That means it offers a PPI rating of 280 - which translates into "very high" settings for a desktop screen.
The display covers 100 percent of the Adobe RGB and sRGB color gamut, offers a brightness of 400 cd/m2 and has a contrast ratio of 1,300:1. Connectivity options include 2x DisplayPort 1.3 connections, 4x USB 3.0 ports (1x BC1.2 charging capability) and an audio line-out connection.
Now if you ignore the fact that Windows scaling doesn't work that well, and that having to upscale your desktop to make any real use of this display on a normal desktop environment basically defeats the purpose of having it in the first place, you can probably convince yourself that you need this piece of technology right away. But then, you also have to consider that buying this monitor will have you selling all two of your kidneys, and you'd probably have to find another one somewhere else (it comes with a price-tag of $4,999 when it goes on sale on March 23). Also do the math on the serious, serious hardware you'd need just to drive any real games at this 8K resolution, and... You get the picture.
This is an amazing, sleek-looking proof of concept, but it's probably still too early for any serious adoption of this kind of display technology.. That said, someone has to push the game forward, and Dell has at least proven they can do it.
