    Sceptre 49" 4K UHD 60hz HDMI 2.0 U508CV-UMK

    Is anybody still interested in this set? I will have time tonight to set it up and direct compare it to the LG 49BU8500 which does 4:4:4 60hz. I can hook them each up to their own 980 and run any tests. Not really looking to schlep these set around unless there is honest interest in them .

    LG 49UB8500 4K 3D IPS as a Computer Monitor for Gaming

    have you tried setting a custom resolution like 3840x1440? I have a scepter 4k 49"(wont do 60hz) and there are no "inbetween" 1080p and 4k native, but setting a custom resolution and turning off any scaling allows for the widescreen feel, and puts a little less stress on the GPUs. I have the...

    Sceptre 49" 4K UHD 60hz HDMI 2.0 U508CV-UMK

    I did hook it up to my PC with a 970. And yes, there are DLC and other correction options in the menu. Unfortunately, even with all of them set to "OFF" there still seems to be some sort of dynamic dimming going on, and it has a remarkably low response time. Also, it fails the quick brown fox...

    Sceptre 49" 4K UHD 60hz HDMI 2.0 U508CV-UMK

    Too good to be true. Just got mine home. Going to keep the set for the kids and their xbone. 4:2:0 at 4k 60hz. As far as the panel goes. Some minor, livable bleeding. Some sort of dynamic brightness that I cant seem to get rid of. Colors are decent, but nothing to write home about. At...

    Sceptre 49" 4K UHD 60hz HDMI 2.0 U508CV-UMK

    All of the adapters on the market are greatly limited in bandwidth, so unfortunatley no, you cant do that. We dont even know for sure if this set has a legit 2.0 HDMI. Need a set in someones hands for that.

    Sceptre 49" 4K UHD 60hz HDMI 2.0 U508CV-UMK

    From their page about the TV: Too bad my tax return has not come in yet, because I would guinea pig it up in a heart beat. Sounds too good to be true at this price point. But god I hope it is.

    1080P vs 1440P for gaming?

    You mention Bluray being 1080p, well, Blueray doesnt think 1440p is worth it. They think you should skip 1440p and go straight to 4k. http://www.engadget.com/2015/01/09/4k-blu-ray-hdd/ The worth of higher resolution is situation specific based on distance and screen size. For many situations...

    monitor resizes upon restart or resume, win 8.1

    Thin LED LCD Monitor/TV to use as a digital picture frame

    this probably would not be all that difficult to accomplish if you have some old IPS panels laying around. I have 3 debezzeled AOC 23" from my old eyefinity setup that I considering doing something similar with. 1080p 23" is a far cry from this behemoth, but 3 individually framed in portrait...
