    So how is 1080p or 1440p gaming on a 4K monitor?

    There are some TVs that have a mode that will skip interpolation and literally just translate the 1080p pixels into quads, but they are more of an exception than a rule. I haven't heard of any such exceptions for actual monitors.

    Why are companies like Dell, Asus, iiyama and NEC not making 40" 4K monitors

    I don't mean all the 40" panels are BGR, however they are all "TV" panels, so it's not surprising that *many* are BGR. It's the smallest problem with TV panels anyway.

    Why are companies like Dell, Asus, iiyama and NEC not making 40" 4K monitors

    BGR is common in TV panels, which is what all these 40" "monitors" use. Most windows apps can be corrected with a simple truetype setting change, but it just goes to show how the market has yet to take these seriously as monitors.

    LG 38UC99 - 37.5'' 3840x1600 75Hz IPS FreeSync

    Acer says its 3440x1600, which is quite a different aspect ratio than 3840x1600

    In the market for a new monitor! GSYNC vs 21:9?

    If you want to max everything at that res with MSAA on top, i.e. the place where memory might start becoming an issue, I'd think you need better than a single 1070 anyway to keep the frames high. With post-processing "fake" AA becoming more and more prominent this doesn't feel as relevant a use...

    Small desktop using 2560 x 1440 screen 27"

    I use 133% custom scaling on a 34" 1440p ultrawide, I can't stand 100% scaling even on a 40-inch 1080p because I want more pixels in my text, dammit. Pick a scaling level that is comfortable for you, everyone has different eyesight, preferences, and usage. Just be ready to tick "disable...

    Monitor decision - Displays out of stock

    Jumbo monitor "immersion" (I have 40" 4K) is more primal then when roleplayers talk about immersion or whatever. Your visual cortex starts treating it more like a real world, or a window onto a real world. I get more sensitive to motion sickness, and can feel my stomach dropping (fear of hights)...

    Skip 144p for 4k

    144 fps 1440p requires more pixels/second than 60 fps 4K. If smoothness while maxing detail is a goal for said games, you really need g-sync for either format.

    Buy ~40" 4K now or wait?

    750 can't do 4:4:4 @ 4K over HDMI anyway right? You're looking at 970 or better for full HDMI 2.0 support, if you want to drive a 4K TV without displayport (not sure that any do?)

    Do you Regret buying a 4K ?

    4k @ 28" didn't feel worth the compromises for gaming. (gpu upgrade, lower settings, 60 hz.) 4k @ 40" was a different story.

    Why people don't care about calibration?

    Far fewer IPS aficionados care about absoulute color accuracy, rather than just having saurated color that is even across the entire screen. Consumers can get used to off colors, but less so when a side by side comparison is staring them in the face, particularly within the same screen.

    Which curved 4k LCD would you get for gaming for <$800?

    1080@40"+ with shadows/ambient occlusion looks alot more like a camcorder than 4K without. Going big is its own experience, for some its worth sacrificing some bells and whistles to achieve.

    Ultimate allround 4K monitor - hypothetical

    DP 1.2a can do at least 85 hz.... just that no-one has bothered to do a scaler for it. HDMI 2.0 caps out at 60 hz in 4:4:4 due to HDCP-related overhead.

    Refresh Rates on 4K Monitors at less than 4K

    The only display that I have seen do pixel doubling is the Seiki se39uy04 in "just scan" mode for 1080p. (Incidentally, it does 120 hz in this mode as well.) Others may exist, but it is definitely not the norm.
