I am running a 50" Samsung 4k UHD Smart TV in 4K
Windows in 4K
MSFS and everything else in 4K
I have been running this combo with an EVGA 1080 Ti FTW 3 11 GiB. for a couple years. X_Plane, DCS, MSFS.
I lower any settings I have to but I won’t give up the 4K.
The difference in the ease of reading guages in 4K is worth whatever else needs to be changed to make it work.
I tried it originally when I bought it at 1080p on the 50" 4K.
Even at that, the guages were far more readable than 1080p on a quality 1080 monitor or a 58" 1080p machine.
The is no way one can go back after using a large 4K screen.
I got my eye doctor to give me a prescription for some readers that focusses at 60 inches (5 ft). Perfect for flight simming.
Stacking 6 documents side by side in 2 rows of 3 and/or many more and being able to read them is nothing to sneeze at either.
I just use an HDMI cable one one end for the TV and a display port on the other end for the GPU. The TV was under $500 Canadian.
This has had daily use over at least 2 years so far with no issues.
Any minor reduction in FPS is more than offset by the far improved ability to actually see things.
The best mod I ever did was to turn off my FPS monitor.
You can expect great performance with your setup.
