Speculation, Please: 28" 4k

Do you expect we will see a

  • 28" (or similar size)
  • 3840x2160
  • PWM-Free
  • Non-TN, unless it's a 'very nice' TN.
  • without a thick/grainy anti-glare coating, or gloss finish.
  • 60Hz

For a price that competes with Dell's 24" 4k, within a year?


Thanks.
 
You mean by March 2015?

lol there will be 4K 60Hz TVs probably at $300 by then. I'm sure TVs will be "repurposed" for monitors by then as well by removing the TV Tuner and then calling it a monitor.

However thus far only AMD hardware can run it at 4K60 via HDMI or DP (natively without dual controllers). Nvidia's current Keplar and Maxwell cards use only 400MHz pixel clocks, both too slow for DP or HDMI to drive to 4K60 (need 600MHz). Because of the uncertainty of Nvidia hardware being 4K compliant, I'm guessing we will see primarily HDMI-based monitors with 4K60 from major TV manufacturers at the el-cheapo prices; I certainly doubt anyone is going overbuild a cheap TV-monitor with dual DP controllers just to make sure nvidia cards can run it.

https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/681356/can-t-enable-60hz-with-display-dell-up2414q-/ <-- Does this splitting issue happen in Windows, too?


GV-N670OC-2GD <-- Any idea if I have DP 1.2? ..

If it's got a DP 1.2 connection it will support a 4K monitor at 60 Hz, but various [H] articles indicates that you really need a 780 or 780 Ti to get decent 4K performance with moderately good settings and SLI to get good performance with high settings.

It's okay, it's not for games. :)

Where do I find out if my card is 1.2? lol
 
Since when did AMD GPU's can run 4K at 60Hz via HDMI? I thought their cards only supported HDMI 1.4 only and limiting to 30Hz if the 4K TV even supports HDMI 2.0, and I'm not talking about a monitor with DP support, because I'm looking at a 4K TV that can do 60Hz.
