In the latest Steam hardware survey results for instance, 60% of users play at 1080p, 15% 1440p, and less than 4% at 4K and above.
Wow! Some interesting stats there, Cuttooth - I'd have assumed that far more people played at 4K than this figures indicate. I don't feel so unsure about making this change now.

Yeah, I will be sat closer to the screen in the new setup (I'll be at a desk with the screen only around two feet from where I sit) but, again, good to hear that 1080p will be perfectly okay.
