Some of yall love to talk graphics and resolutions and teraflops and all that shyt. They think they're doing something because they bought a $1000 OLED 3 years ago to go along with your PS5/Series X, but you're sitting 8ft away from the TV with a 55".

If also watch sports, movies, or whatever on the same TV, here's a curveball for you:

TV Size to Distance Calculator and Science
Our TV Sizes to Distance Calculator helps you choose the right size TV for your space. The optimal viewing distance is about 1.6 times the diagonal length of the television. For example, for a 55” TV, the best distance is 7 feet.
