YouTube Goes 4K, Requires Bigger Monitor Than You Have

by Eric on July 10, 2010

What’s the resolution of your monitor?  A lot less than 4092 x 3072 pixels, eh?  Because that’s what you need to take advantage of the full 4K resolution now supported by YouTube.  However, many users appear to be unimpressed with the low bitrate (around 6500kbps) for the 4K resolution.  And, I’ll have to agree, it looks pretty darn crummy, even at my rather humble 1680 x 1050 monitor resolution.

You can chew on some of the 4K videos already on YouTube here.
