Basically I'm happy with my PC performing more like a PS4 Pro/Xbox One X.

I assume this means the display (LG OLED) is doing the final upscale to 4K, but it looks fine. 1080p was clearer was clearer than 1440p, and it allowed me to turn on more advanced graphics features like ray tracing.

1080p clearer than 2k? How come?
