4:4:4 improves the colors a lot. The monitor colors look richer and the blacks are deeper.
When you receive your Titans, test again. I've been playing games in PC mode and the picture is better than game mode.
I only use game mode for multiplayer, everything else I game in PC mode.
Seiki has flaky quality and warranty service so I eliminated that from my list. The Phillips monitor suffered from panel quality issues overseas and we are also starting to see that in the US. At this price point, I'm looking for A grade quality and the Sammy has that. Along with having most of the features of a PC monitor, it's also a Smart TV, something I've been using quite a lot i.e. Netflix and Prime Video with UHD. The Sammy offers more for $1000.
When the Sammy is on, the power light is off!
Also using the TV remote instead of pressing monitor buttons is also a welcome relief.
Ergonomists recommendations abou the placement of the monitor, e.g.: If you use a large monitor (20" or larger), position your monitor so that the top of the viewing area is about 3" above eye level.. For smaller monitors the recommendation is: Position the top of your screen level with your eyes. What may happen if the recommendations are not kept: If it's too high, you may have to tilt your head back, leading to neck and shoulder pain - and increasing the likelihood of glrae from overhead lights (a common cause of headaches).
I got the impression that PPI gives a way to try and compare screens of differing sizes and resolution. For example if a 27" monitor and a 40" monitor have the same PPI text will look the same on both.
I don't have a PC Mode option for mine.
If you don't have PC mode, what mode do you use? Only game mode, or does it work with whatever mode? Will you be getting 4:4:4 even without PC mode if you get a HDMI 2.0 card?

It works fine in any mode. Game mode makes the text look crappy but otherwise its fine in other modes. I can't get 4:4:4: right now anyway. When my Titan X's arrive that should change. Someone had mentioned the possibility that you only get the PC mode when you connect a HDMI 2.0 capable card to it. I guess I'll find out tomorrow.

When I press the Input key on the remote and then scroll over to the PC HDMI1/DVI input, I then select the down arrow and I get the following options:

I hope that helps.
No issues with wifi for my set (48" JU6700)
We confirmed 4:4:4 on GTX 970/980 HDMI 2.0 long ago. To be surprised by that this late in the thread...read people.
Will game mode still allow 4k 60hz? Can you post photos of text in game mode? Also you are reducing the sharpness in game mode to 0 correct? The default 50 in PC mode is zero in game mode. Also you need to disable the edge enhancement and any other options n game mode.
Can you please try and report back, thank you.
How is the blacks on the SUHD? Are they really pure black? Is it really worth the price? Ca $3500 here for the 48" inch 9 series model.

It's the Titan X that's having trouble, either due to a driver issue or a GM200 issue or whatever, but that's the one that to this point can't do 4:4:4 via it's own HDMI 2.0 port.
Waiting on Dan to receive his Titan X's, hope he can find the workaround.
Yes it does work on my Panasonic l65wt600, same as my 980 that I upgraded from.

I don't know about the 9 series, but the 48" JU6700 has awesome black level with 4K @ 60Hz 4:4:4. I'm blown away by how inky the black is. Coming from Dell u3011's, this is night and day difference!

The WiFi on my 48" JU7500 doesn't seem to work. I'm planning on returning it for the 40" version when they get them in stock so it's not a big deal for me.
Found a confirmed working Titan X owner here got it working

Even on my setup the blacks actually look good and I'm not getting 4:4:4: mode yet.
Ink black on Normal. And the setting can be turned down to further deepen blacks in the entire image.
When playing Crysis 3 on Black set to Low, it turns into a Survivor Horror game.
Just ordered a 980FTW and a 40" JU6700. Woot! Excited!
I know I'll need a 2nd 980 at a minimum, but this'll have to do for a few weeks. I hope the input lag on PC mode is tolerable for productivity use!
I will try that with the sharpness. But I can definitely confirm that the TV does do 60Hz in games at 4K resolution.
EDIT: So I made that adjustment in sharpness and now things are much better in game mode. I can't believe I didn't figure this out earlier.
Played some F.E.A.R. last night and had another single case of the display going blank for a second (only did it once). Again with the blue flashing pixels afterward.
My Mediabridge HDMI cable arrived a day early today, though. So I've got it connected and will do some more testing. It's definitely a more substantial cable than the one I was using. Hopefully it solves the issue for good.
Disclosure: I came from dual 27" and I was planning on getting a 40" but they were not in stock at my local store. The 48" was, so here I am. Honestly, even with a reasonable return policy, I am not sure I want go to the 40". Yes, it took some getting used to, yes it is large, but it is glorious to use.
Disconnect the cable and then access the Picture setting to turn on UHD Color.
Did you play FEAR with black set to low?
I play Crysis 3 with Black set to Low and it's a different game. The atmosphere is dark and intense. With the tall grass I can't see where the aliens are coming from, I only see their eyes. I have to use Nanovision so it looks like the Predator.
Update:
My Titan X's arrived early. I just threw them in and got them up and running. Interestingly enough while playing with the settings I figured out how to put the display in PC mode. For some reason HDMI 1/STB or whatever that port is won't let me do it. The other HDMI ports do let me select "device type" from the drop down. What's odd is that I can enable UHD color support on the first input, but not the others. Not in game mode or PC mode.
Yes, only on Port 1It didn't work. I can only enable it on HDMI1. I can't do it on the others regardless of the device type selected.
It's a different TV with UHD Color w/ 4:4:4Well on HDMI1 I have the UHD setting enabled and the colors are awesome.
So far so good with the new HDMI cable. Fingers crossed...
I probably won't have enough time for rigorous testing until the weekend, but things are looking promising so far.

Nice, if blacks is so good yours then SUHD is probably not woth it, for the blacks only.
I ordered a Monoprice 6ft 18GBps HDMI cable, so we'll see. I think I read of issues with the 15ft, but the 3ft worked fine. Hopefully I'll be able to give a good report on the 6 footer.
Thanks for your help imyourzero and others. Now I just have to wait, haha. Hope I get a good panel - lottery ticket in hand.
You aren't kidding. It really is.
