Best 4k monitor?

[Peanut2013uk]

is it still the Asus PB287Q? ive had a quick look and don't see anything interesting and I have a Samsung Sync Master SA350 atm but I upgraded my GPU from a Asus Radeon HD6950 to a GTX970 is it best to wait a while before getting a 4k monitor? or has a good 4k IPS monitor come out yet?

depends what you are doing if 4k is actually good.. sure you can game on one but you might want 3 more 970's

I don't think there is 4k IPS yet, but you'll need more GPU power if you wanna play smoothly at low to medium settings and possibly high. So I'd get a 2nd 970 if you can and stick with 1440p ultra gaming with no problems. To answer your title question though, I like the Asus monitor you typed and I'd get that for myself if I had to choose a 4k monitor, but that's just my opinion

yup.. about the best gaming setup with out going all out would be 2 970's and the asus rog 1440p gsync

but a single GTX970 reviewed got 24.1 FPS @ 4k so why would I need many?

24 fps is not exactly a high, 50-60 is where you'd want to be for at least smooth gaming experience. You'd have screen tearing all over the place with 24 fps.

they say lets move on to 4k then the pictures show 1440p

look at lone's build in the signature.. you need something like that for ultra 4k gaming

30fps is a smooth experience, 50-60 is the preferred by gamers, and the benchmark was done on ultra settings, take the AA off and you have your 30 fps. generally my rig don't start to show signs of low fps until below 20 fps.

Well, you could try, it's not like it'll hurt you or anything. I started with just a single gtx 780 too, so if you wanna give it a try and see how it goes, by all means

the benchmark is not even valid you can do what you want but your going to need at least 1 more 970 for a decent experience
