Well, not sure you can call it gaming, but yeah...

Check the Civ "mini"-map in the bottom right corner.

I watched this the other day. That rig is $40k in GPUs alone.
Though I do admit, Civ looks beautiful.

You can't expect any modern game to be optimized for 16k....

If he had one of those Radeon SSGs he might have gotten a bit better results

Doubtfull. They wouldn't have the GPU horsepower to play the games. They only had memory problems in RotR, everything else was fine.

I don't really expect games to be optimized at all anymore tbh.

the only games that you could play at 16k resolution make no sense to run at 16K.

why would you run a crappy graphics like half-life 1/2 at 16k?

don´t get me wrong i loved half-life back then.. but today the graphic just sucks.

and for screen size alone, there are cheaper solutions.

but this was all about getting clicks.. and he achieved that goal.
