ViewSonic adds VX2880ml with 28" 4k Resolution
ViewSonic jumps on the 4K bandwagon by releasing the VX2880ml, a 28" LCD monitor with a 4k - 3840 x 2160 resolution. This one is priced sharp though at €399. The new screen offers a 5ms response time, 1000:1 contrast ratio, 300 cd/m2 brightness, 170/160 viewing angles and 1.07b colours apparently. The screen once again is using a TN Film panel, and with W-LED backlighting offering a standard sRGB gamut.
The screen is also advertised as being flicker free, without the use of PWM and even features a low blue light mode setting as well.
The display offers MHL enabled HDMI, DisplayPort and Mini DisplayPort connectivity options. There are 2x 2W integrated stereo speakers and a basic tilt only adjustment available from the stand.
“As 4K content continues to emerge and entertainment and other demanding visual applications become more progressive, there is a compelling need for premium UHD resolution displays,” said Claire Chuang, Product Marketing Manager at ViewSonic Europe Ltd. “To satisfy 4K content developers, graphic designers, gamers and other advanced and home entertainment applications requiring an extreme high resolution, the VX2880ml 4K resolution display delivers the highest level of details in an affordable yet stunning form factor."
The VX2880ml is now available for an RRP of £359/€399 (exc. VAT).

this resolution is not healthy for gaming , 2 780ti wont give you the satisfaction
Two years or three from now maybe
Not for AAA titles maybe, but there's a lot of games that's perfectly playable at 4k. Regardless, the exact same thing happened when 1200p/1080p started becoming a thing - everyone who was still primarily 1440x900 and 1280x1024 had to wait a few years after 1200p/1080p became affordable. Personally, I didn't step to up 1080p until 2009 with a dual HD4870 system.

You will need to lower some settings like with 3 monitors setup. But outside some particulary extreme case.. keeping around 60fps is not so hard. just need to optimize a bit the quality, starting by MSAA.
When you come from 2560x1440-1600 setup, the jump is not so big. something like 1080p > 1600p.
Now im not really sure i want to switch my 27" WQHD for a 28" .. Surely more for a 32"..

I think most newer cards will run games fine @ a 4k res
It just means you would have to turn all the eye-candy way down.
I think even my machine could do 4k @ 30+ fps if i turned everything to low.
Maybe some games would struggle, Watch Dogs for example but a lot of games i'm playing right now would be fine.

Nah. You don't have to turn things all the way down. Simply lowering some settings here and there is all that's needed for most high end cards. For example, a GTX 770 can pull around 40-45 fps in Battlefield 4 at 4k by simply disabling MSAA and lowering the post process effects while keeping everything else at high or ultra. Watch Dogs is a terrible example of 4k gaming since its horribly optimized.

so no mention of refresh rate so it's probably only 30Hz seeing as it only uses one DP cable or HDMI cable (it takes two DP cables to do 60Hz)

I don't think it was meant for gaming, judging by the marketing around it.

I totally agree with 4K not being quite ready yet.
2K is the sweet spot for 60fps+
My rig can do it easily with my specs. I just have some Vram limitations with some newer games.

Yeah, totally agree. Plus, I feel like 36" would really be where the size should be. Probably ridiculous looking to have that in front of you, but it seems like about 100 ppi is good. Probably could really even do a 40". I can't even imagine web browsing in front of that...

Still prefer to rock my 120 fps and 120 Hz so no go for me. 1080p is here to stay for a while for us that are more fps hungry.

Me too, I use 144hz (or 144fps) and it's awesome, so, 1080p will be a lot of years!

This is actually false. HDMI is limited to 4k30 while DP can do 4k60 with a little room to spare. This monitor can do 60hz when using DP and is limited to 30hz when using hdmi at 4k. it can still do 1440/1080p60 using hdmi as well.
