As a "game purist" I've a 1080p desktop setup for PC and retro, I'm planning to build a full 4k space in the future for this/next gen; 2k is a particular spot, more work oriented, but it can be used to play better well-optimized PC games that don't need a 4k gamepad experience (I think it hardly depends on the screen size and how it's placed). I would also really like to buy a real CRT in the future!
I own a NEC CRT and I use it even for modern games every now and then. I beat Silent Hill 2 Remake on it last year and it looks great. I can't remember which resolution it was, but I only lost a bit of screen on top and bottom so it was playable even if the game didn't come with 4:3 support.
