Nascar Posted September 27, 2014 Posted September 27, 2014 (edited) I went to Best Buy last week. Since then, I have been drooling over the 4k Tv's. Then I did some research and the Tv's they are producing do not have the right specs for future 4k content. What you will want in a 4k Tv.

SkateZilla Posted September 28, 2014 Posted September 28, 2014 HDCP 2.2 is still a ways away from being integrated. If you're buying 4K for PC Gaming, you should be fine.

*Rage* Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 Fine only if you're happy gaming at 30hz. For 60hz at 4k you need hdmi 2.0 capable tv and gfx card. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 64th "Scorpions" Aggressor Squadron Discord: 64th Aggressor Squadron TS: 195.201.110.22
aeliusg Posted September 29, 2014 Posted September 29, 2014 The new GTX 980/970 have HDMI 2.0, and most mainstream 4K TVs have the inputs as well. Trouble is a lot of them aren't doing proper full color at 4K at 60 hz.

zaelu Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Proper full colour? Please explain.... The usual lcd monitors used to have 6 bits color definition in stead of 8. This mixed with high refresh times and small latency made the lower defined color to suffer also in its grey compound thus the image was not real true color. Now with 4k.... Higher rez and refresh rates and low latency this old problem might rise again as manufacturers will try to make them cheap to rich a certain volume in sales so the 4k trend gets into higher gear... Popularity wise.

aeliusg Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 Here's an example of what I was talking about: http://www.avsforum.com/forum/166-lcd-flat-panel-displays/1689258-official-2014-vizio-p-series-owner-s-thread-81.html Some of the color data is lost, so this is what you see with small details, like with small text. Not great for the desktop, but it won't affect image quality in DCS or movies all that much.

aeliusg Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) I would go for OLED 1080P instead of 4K. The advantage in 4K is that pixel size at close range is fairly imperceptible. The 1080p OLED's I've seen from LG still have rather large looking pixels. From usual TV viewing distance (a good 6 ft minimum for the 55" LG's, I'd say), it isn't an issue, but if you have it on your desk, it will be. At that distance you lose out on the screen FOV that you can get with a large display, however. I wish we could fast-forward technology to the point where we can get high-resolution thin-film OLED displays at the same cost as any cheap LCD monitor we have now, but there will probably be more exciting and even more expensive stuff to anticipate then. The cycle never ends. :helpsmilie: Edit: I should add that I'm talking about physical pixel size - also what that means for perception of the screen-door effect. Edited October 1, 2014 by aeliusg
rcjonessnp175 Posted October 1, 2014 Posted October 1, 2014 You guys/ gals just need to downsample on your 1080p screens at 55 inch or whatever. With my pit build I'm just about at 6 ft viewing distance from tv. Looks great and nothing can replace that size. http://m.neogaf.com/showthread.php?t=509076 I7 4770k @ 4.6, sli 980 evga oc edition, ssdx2, Sony 55 inch edid hack nvidia 3dvision.

Amuro Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Oh gosh 1080p is a horribly low resolution. You would not notice that when you have an 55 inch LG OLED siting from 3 meters away. Black level, color rendition, response time trumps any LCDs.

Archer7 Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 I've been predicting 4K to be more viable in 2016 for a couple of years now. In terms of cost and stability that is.
