I used to keep up with the graphics hardware some time ago but after awhile i stopped caring about it and with it the whole visual improvements that are achieved.

Could be cuz i got older (you seem to stop caring about a bunch of really minute details of stuff the older you get), or it could be that they were so gimmicky that they were utterly pointless to showcase at the time (due to either performance hits or nothing was actually utilizing it in a way that was actually beneficial), or the fact that i also own a Nintendo Switch (or even all the older nintendo hardware like Wii and WiiiU) so even if the graphical progress and smoothness upgraded over time to include 60fps+ and 4k resolutions, I still spent time and was comfortable in the lower res 720p/30fps environment. The PC gamer master race inside me can tell the smoothness difference and the visual differences, but it just doesnt bother me at all.

And only my TV is 4k capable, my 27" monitor which i JUST recently upgraded to (previous was an old 22" 1650X1080 22") is only 1080p but with 165hz capability.
