4K is nice, but sometimes t he files are super big. I've found a few compressed using HEVC - much smaller, seem to be still higher rez than 1080P. How do people feel about those HEVC x265 files in 4K?

4k movies should be encoded in HEVC (x265), that is how they come on UHD BluRay and even WEB-DLs. Would not make sense to use AVC (x264). To be 4k (2160p) the resolution has to be higher than 1080p, duh. :) The movies will be 3840 x xxxx (2160 or 1600 usually). They are going to be pretty big if they are REMUX (untouched video). The re-encoded releases can be 1/2 to a 1/4 of the REMUX size. Size will depend on what audio is used (Atmos, DTS-HD MA, TrueHD, DTS, AC3) and if HDR or SDR.

+1 for the 4k/2160p section.

Not really but we need H.265 and 4K uses that encoding scheme. Only people about FST can modify the web site but they have been absent for eons.

I usually just go 1080p if I am watching it on my monitor. If on my projector then I go 4K.

might seem a silly question, but how good does the 4k look on a projector? i have an asus predator 1080 and its pretty good, but didnt know if it might be worth upgrading

Yep I would add it before the 4320Ps start showing up.
