Displacement at higher resolution

As @fatrobotsneedlove suggest, I am re-posting here. I want to render 8k wallpapers an I am using 8k c4d shaders in my noise nodes and the way displacement is done gives very very bad results like stairs effects. I tried to use recently introduced filters but that doesn't help. It's removing details which is the expected way for this to work. I attached the c4d file. Cheers

8k texture without tiling is not enough for giving the detailed results on 8k closeups. Octane displacement is using voxels so you see stairs. Why don't you use a tilable image rather than a c4d noise + blur effect in displacement? Combination of both is causing to spend a lot of prerendering in cpu for preparation of displacement image.

I would ideally use noise because it's pretty flexible and already in the 3d package I'm using. Using a tillable texture is the only way for now, I wonder how much are you guys working on a more optimized solution? Thanks for the answer.

Maybe a stupid question, but did you check if your octane/c4d shader conversion is also set to 8k?
