My gaming rig is also my media center hooked up to a 4k television. I sit around 7 feet away from it. Anything less than 1440p looks grainy and blocky on my display.
I can’t game at 4k because of hardware limitations (a 3070 just can’t push it at good framerates) but I wouldn’t say it’s a waste to go above 1080p, use case is an important factor.
Pixel density is pixel density. Doesn’t matter if it’s a tv or a monitor.
Sure monitors typically have less input lag and there are reasons one might choose a monitor over a tv, but the reverse is also true. I chose a 55" tv for my sim racing setup that sits maybe a meter from my face and there’s no problem with that setup
Not sure what you think PPI means or how it’s calculated, but it has nothing to do with being a tv or a monitor. It’s a relationship between the number of pixels and physical size.
A 34" 1440p monitor will have a lower PPI than a 4k TV at the same size
I personally think anything over 1080p is a waste of resolution, and I still use a card with 8GB of VRAM.
That being said, lots of other people want a 16GB card, so let them give you money AMD!

My TV has this stupid bullshit where it’s only 30hz at 1440p but is 60hz at literally every other resolution (including 4K). 😬

1440p on a 27" monitor is the best resolution for work and for gaming.
But but Nvidia said at the RTX 3000 announcement that we can now have 8K gaming
