minus-squareGibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·2 days agoHas anyone ever plugged their desktop pc into a large 4k TV for gaming? If so, how was it? Theres a game I want to play with friends but it’s only on pc and I don’t want to sit at my desk to play it. Curious what other peoples experiences are.
minus-squareTaleya@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·edit-21 day agoYes. We have a pc permanently slaved to the tv for media and gaming. It’s fucken awesome. You do need to blow up the font sizes to be able to read system shit though.

minus-squareGibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 day agoHoly crap lol Cheers :)
minus-squaredumblederp@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 day agoI think it depends on your GPU being able to drive a 4k monitor. Might need to turn the graphics down on the game to get enough frame rate.
minus-squareDuenan@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 days agoI’ve ever only done it via a laptop with a direct hdmi connection. With my pc I had to use steam link which went through the network. Sort of worked but crashed eventually after playing around with it for a couple of hours.
