    4k Monitor

    I'm looking at an Asus PB287Q for about $250. Is there anything else that I should be looking at in a similar price range?

    That's a decent price. I have had mostly positive experiences with Asus.

    I'd rather have a 1080/1440 ultrawide than that, though.

      I'm not a huge fan of Ultrawides but my experience with them is admittedly limited

        What is your main use for this monitor?

            If it's gaming you want gsync. I had the monitor you're looking at (the PB287Q) and I pitched it because screen tearing in 4k is real. It was fucking terrible.

              Wanted one for a while but I'll stick with 1440p for a couple more years. Cards often dont even like that...so I'm assuming 4k is a good deal worse. And another thing. What's with all these microscopic U.I's in games that natively support these higher rezzes? Pretty annoying. Gsync would be real damn cool though. Last i checked it was kinda expensive.

                4k gaming is amazing. Sometimes the UI's are small, yes.

                  Ultrawides for gaming is the shit. Accept no substitute.

                  Here's an old album of the division, normal (xbone) and ultrawide (pc). Get an ultrawide, you'll thank us all later.

                      In 1st/3rd person shooters the ultrawide is a definite advantage over a standard monitor.

                            Let me tape the top and bottom of my monitor so I can experience this resolution you speak of and I'll join in.

                              ultra wide doesn't take away it only adds.
