At 27 inches, 4K has 2.25 times as many pixels and 1.5 times the pixel density of QHD. This does not predict FPS. At 150% scaling, 4K offers roughly the same logical workspace as QHD at 100%, with similar physical text size. Actual rendering depends on the OS and apps; this model does not precisely reproduce macOS.
