My New Sexy Computer Monitor

Recommended Posts

Update: I cancelled the order and reordered it and a geforce 970 vid card from BH Photo. I saved 5% using google wallet. :)

 

 

Been looking for a month for a new monitor.  Wanted to get something on the bleeding edge.  Will be trying out 4K gaming for sh!ts and giggles.  When I saw this Black Friday Preorder sale.  It was a no brainer.  Basically $400 off.  The deal is going to be on many sites, Newegg, Amazon, Crutchfield to name a few.  I went with newegg to save on tax, yes I know, amazon is Zods thing but I like not paying tax more. :)

 

If you are wondering, yes it has HDMI 2.0 ports to do 4k@60hz

Yes they were. I had moved like a year ago and wanted to get a new TV. The one I was looking at was around $4,000.

That's not what I meant. I know they were for sale at $4,000, but nobody was buying them. If they were, they wouldn't be $600 now.

I can put a $50,000 price tag on my old pickup. Doesn't really mean much.

I've never seen one in person but can someone enlighten me as to why 4k is?

A better resolution than 1080p.

90% of content isn't even available in 4k yet, and won't be anytime soon.

Unless you are within 2-3ft of the screen and have 20/20 vision or better, your eyes cannot detect a difference between 1080p and 4k.

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
