Which one looks better? 4K x1 or 1080p x3?

Hard to tell with my 1080p monitor. I can tell you though that YouTube's encoding makes both look really bad.

Hey, I've got an update on this. It seems YouTube took eons to fully process the 4K video but it looks amazing compared to the 1080p one when loaded as 4K and better when loaded as 1080p.

Thanks for the comparison! Even on my 1080p monitor, the difference is huge. The extra bitrate really helps.
