I hate the terms "4K" and "8K" lol
They're marketing gimmicks brought over from another place and completely separate from the main system used to count pixels on computers (1080p, 1440p, etc.), the vertical pixels, which confuses the system arbitrarily.
where "4K" is 2160p and 3840px wide on 16:9
and "8K" is 4320p and 7680px wide on 16:9
The "K" number being brought from the horizonal pixels on a slightly wider aspect ratio
Either way in terms of what my laptop can handle, I think last time I tried a video like this it could do 2160p at regular speed, the video probably wasn't as intense tho (the display is just 1080p tho so it would have no need for 2160p or even 1440p).
Also to note I feel like 4320p is unnecessary atm, especially as to actually get the most out of that in gaming, you'd need multiple top-of-the-line gfx cards plus the game to even have a good 4320p option, which atm I feel like most cap at 2160p if they're newer. Streaming 4320p is likewise not really worth it, the viewers would all need to have download speeds to accommodate that amount of information flow, I don't know if my internet would even handle downloading it live even if that's all the internet was doing at that time lol.
