I would but unfortunately I’m too spoiled by 4K 120Hz in HDR on an OLED. No other display technology comes even close to looking as good as an OLED does. Not to mention PC gaming at 4K120. Makes the PS5 look like a PS4.

I’m so glad I made the switch to projectors. They have yet to be riddled with this horse shit. My current projector does 1080p, 60fps, makes an 85" screen in my room, can be used just fine during the day, and with the screen cost me less than 600 bucks.

Is this viable for gaming? How’s the resolution compared to a regular 4k tv?

Well it is 85" big with 1080p resolution at 60fps and a projector. So it will look terrible compared to 85" 4k 120fps with light darks and will need a dark room for decent colors.
It would be fine for retro games or pre-HDR games, but don’t expect anything modern to look as good as a 4k QLED with microdimming.
You can spend 2-3x as much on a 4k projector setup compared to an 85" 4k QLED commercial display that won’t look terrible with the lights on.

I don’t nor will I ever play competitive FPS shooters on it but I cannot imagine another genre I wouldn’t gleefully play on this monster screen.

Currently running a garbage knockoff projector that I got for $99 and I’m still glad I’m not using a smart TV. It has all the features I need and none of the stuff I don’t. I’d be interested to see what $600 got you. I like mine, but it runs loud.
