Has anyone ran a 4K TV as a monitor @ 60hz?

I've been searching online and can not find any information on this. I read people running a 4K TV as a monitor @30Hz, but not at 60Hz.

I wouldn't mind working with 30Hz since I've been working on a 28" 4K monitor and I got used it, but if I can run at 60Hz on a TV at that resolution that would be awesome.

I guess I just need to bite the bullet and spend the money to try it. Nvidia has a line of graphic cards that are made for 4K but I haven't read anyone that has ran a desktop at 60hz.

Maybe someone here has, and if so what's your rig?

Hello, sorry I'm late, looks like no one else has it. I have a 4k UHD TV 58 inch running st 60Hz, my specs are at the bottom right corner. I have the Panasonic AX800, the only UHD TV in existence with display port, if you have any questions, please ask :)

The lg ub85000 49" in hdmi 3 with uhd deep color enabled on the tv supports 60hz 10bit 4k gaming. This paired with 2 gtx 980's will give you close to 60fps in 4k. I have it all set up and everything works great. Also with the 295x2 you can get 4k at 60hz with a mini-displayport to display port adaptor 1.2. Here is a link to a cheap cable made by accell: http://www.amazon.com/Accell-B143B-007J-UltraAV-DisplayPort-6-6-Feet/dp/B00A7R9I22

Hope this helps guys! Any questions im always available!

You'll have to wait for an adapter that actually works for the conversion from DP 1.2 to HDMI 2.0, which could be in a couple weeks or months. The only other options are to get a new TV or GPU, but obviously new TV is not really an option because it's way more expensive. So I would just pick up a 390x when it comes out or something, surely it'll have built in HDMI 2.0 port on it, adapters are just not as reliable as a cable. And no, this is not AMD's fault, the conversion between the two cables is just not possible for 60Hz atm.
