You'd be hard pressed to find a top grade projector where 4K isn't just thrown in as part of the deal. But let's just say I'm not at all upset that my Epson LS800 "only" has doubled up 1080p. The limitations of the human eye means it still looks glorious - fron the seated position. Sure, you can see a difference up close and all but still. But either way... if you buy a good projector today it's 4K so the discussion is academic. 8K however would be total horseshit in just about every way...

I'm about to switch back to a TV for this reason. I have an Epson LS800 and a decent 120" ALR screen and I love the picture, but I can hear the fan during quiet scenes from around 12 feet away, even on the lowest setting. I am particularly sensitive though, maybe from spending so many years trying to build the quietest possible PC. I'll go back to a (long throw) projector when I move somewhere I can have a dedicated space and can build an enclosure/hush box into a wall.
