    LG 31MU97Z-B 31 in true 4096 x 2160

    Looks like a very interesting monitor with the slightly different aspect ratio (Sorta-wide TM). I've never heard of DCI vs UHD, but it is appealing.

    Monitor advice: 4k vs high refresh rate

    I know some of the Sony TVs do 120hz native at 1080p (like the XBR43X830C), but they also have some graphical artifacts.

    HP Spectre 32 Studio Display - 4k and glossy!

    A long time ago, I had a 21'' glossy screen and had no problems, but I lived in a cave. I thought I could get by with the HP because of this, but I started having headaches from the pristine reflections. Unfortunately, this is probably the best 32'' 4k on the market (for me). I do not understand...

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

    I thought the glow was usually worse on curved screens.

    Are all Dell Ultrasharp monitors 1440?

    No, 1920 x 1200 6ms (GTG) The Dell U2715H is though.

    HP Spectre 32 Studio Display - 4k and glossy!

    After having this thing for two weeks, and really wanting to love it, I have to take it back. While the glossy screen makes images look great, it is just painful with normal reflections in the room. My search continues...

    BenQ BL3201PT 4K monitor

    I tested this theory in a way tonight. I've had my screen on for a few hours, and just noticed the glitch. I immediately touched the power brick and it is lukewarm :\

    BenQ BL3201PT 4K monitor

    If it spawns from a heat issue, maybe we could alter something for better airflow.

    BenQ BL3201PT 4K monitor

    I have the HP Spectre 32 (same panel, same flicker glitch) and am extremely interested in finding a solution. I can confirm the issue happens over DP and HDMI. I bought a VESA certified DP cable to test with and will update. I am hopeful these forums can figure this one out.

    is 55" 4k too big for monitor?

    I would say yes, 55'' is too big, and stick to less than or equal to 40''. I would also suggest not getting a TV, or at the least avoiding a VA panel, because your eyes will complain trying to read text on the screen for extended periods of time. At first I tried the XBR43X800D and had problems...

    HP Spectre 32 Studio Display - 4k and glossy!

    Apparently this monitor is plagued by the same graphical or panel glitch as the BL3201PH, where half of the screen flickers with random junk for one frame. At first, it happened twice over three days, but it seems to be getting worse, up to around every two hours. It is jarring when it happens...

    UHD 50" from 4-5 feet away: what resolution?

    If you can read the text... 4k. Seems obvious.

    HP Spectre 32 Studio Display - 4k and glossy!

    I've got the monitor all set up. First thing: Zero dead pixels. I am seriously blown away as I have never had this experience before. On to other important points: + Input lag is unnoticeable as far as I can tell + Viewing angles are crazy good + Text is sharp + The screen looks great due...

    HP Spectre 32 Studio Display - 4k and glossy!

    Other than NCX's review (great btw), it is hard to find additional information on this monitor. I am a little worried about the input lag and glossy screen, but it ticks all my other requirements (32''+, 4k, IPS, HDMI 2.0). I want to get into the 4k foray, and after trying (and being...

    My Final Question on 4K Tv's

    We had a little conversation about the X800D in another thread.

    Which 4K TV is best overall?

    I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960. Input lag seemed higher at 4k than at 1080P, but I have no conclusive proof. EDIT: RTings has proven me wrong (33.3ms at 1080P, 35.3ms at 4k), so I guess 33-35ms input lag is noticeable to me.

    Which 4K TV is best overall?

    I may be pickier than most, but at around 3' from the screen, on center, the edges were color shifted and had low contrast, and I believe the loss of contrast added to my eye strain. I do not have experience with other VA panels, just the one in the XBR43X800D, but based on that I would suggest...

    Which 4K TV is best overall?

    I would avoid the XBR43X800D for use as a monitor. The viewing angles are poor, and on a 43'' screen the color shift / contrast loss will be very apparent. The input lag is noticeable (to me). Also, text is slightly blurry even at 4:4:4 and seemed to give me eye strain.
