When people take issue with some of the suposed shortcomings with respect to 4K it's more then likely IMO that they simply cannot see past their own narrow intended use case. The reality is that not everyone uses monitors in the same way and if they cannot see differing use cases that is the...

Yeah, your right,... LG uses WebOS (relatively small maker share), Samsung uses Tizen (relatively large market share) and Sony uses Android on some models or so I have heard. Maybe an Amazon FireTV can play your game,...?

Its logical to think that if you are happy with what you have now in the U2711 then there is little to no point in upgrading. If you are not content then an upgrade makes more sense or if you want an additional monitor for specific applications on the same system (or a monitor for another...

Those 4GB GTX 960 cards are available now.

I've seen too many complaints about 27" 16:9 ratio monitors by those preferring 30" 16:10 to totally discount it as a factor for those contrasting 30" and 27" monitors with respect to size. Sometimes it's not the size but rather the ratio that bother people. Personally I switch between...

I understand your point and I am not saying you are wrong. However, there is presumably a pending upgrade to the Seiki Pro line already planned. If this is accurate, anyone in the know would have plausible reason to respectfully disagree and therefore expect a future price drop on the currently...

I've "been there and done that" as well and with all due respect, my experience on a Seiki 4K 39" is still one I view as being positive. I've experienced none of the ill effects and issues that you have cited. I'm not trying to discount your assertions, I'm just saying they aren't...

It's probably best to test with whichever model of monitor you are interested in anyway. While likely insignificant a 28" 4K TN monitor (Samsung) is slightly bigger then a 27" 4K IPS monitor.

Anyone ever tell you that you scare easy,......!?! :) I mean, of all the things to be afraid of,......

Fortunately for you manufacturers still make monitors of the smaller variety and likely will for the foreseeable future. Plus such Lilliputian options are cheaper too. Personally I don't want anything smaller them 27" for general computer usage. 2560x1440 as a minimum is preferable. I like...

Some 4GB GTX960 cards have already been announced if not been made available at retail already. One such example: http://www.evga.com/articles/00914/EVGA-GeForce-GTX-960-4GB/ http://www.techpowerup.com/210596/zotac-unveils-a-pair-of-4-gb-geforce-gtx-960-graphics-cards.html Not that it really...

You might want to look into that assertion a bit more. Recall that we are talking about desktop use not gaming use. I'll provide the following quotes and links to support my argument. I understand in your case it's hard to prove a negative...

I hear what you are saying and I don't totally dissagree with it. This may well be applicable to the OP, however, in my case it is not. This is for a number of different reason but chief amount them is the need to get as much as possible onto the screen while still having everything easily...

I have a total of four 4K displays. The models are as follows: Samsung 28" U28D590 3840x2160 at 60Hz Acer 28" B286HK 3840x2160 at 60Hz Seiki 39" SE39UY04 3840x2160 at 30Hz LG 55" UB8500 3840x2160 at 60Hz (via HDMI 2.0) My experience and findings are very similar to that of...

Just a little update, I have an LG 55UB8500 and have started to notice a little oddity. On occasion the audio will go out of sync. Audio goes through the first HDMI port and I'm using a GTX 760. It could be the card, the drivers or the 55UB8500. I'm not really sure but I have plans to...
