Following on from the post above, the rule of thumb I use is, if there is text in the texture, does it look crisp and clear when rendered, assuming the original is crisp and clear? If the answer is yes, then your render settings are ok.

When it comes to skin textures, you have to remember there may be times when your character is close to the camera and, on a large render, any shortcoming in the texture and/or your render settings will be noticeable. A 1024 head texture in closeup on a 4k screen will look bad, no matter what you do.

As for the 4k monitor, never assume your users have anything less. Even if you use an ancient 1024 x 768 thing, think big.
