Is this only 30Hz?

So....4k that's cool and all except very few can afford or even run 4k res. properly....wtf imo mauf. should be focusing on monitors that the average Joe or enthusiast....such as 1440p seems like 1440p is being ignored to me this is the new 1080p why these companys are going straight to 4k is dumb....we should already have 1440p panels that come 120hz stock yet the Monitor industry is lacking innovation and technology and Gsync is mehhhhhh unless on 1440p+ why anyone would even consider 1080p these days is beyond me....at my work we have upgraded everything to 1440p and everyone frakin loves it...lets move on its 2014 not 2004

arent all 4k only running at 30hz currently? I haven't seen one higher yet... you spend $1200 and only get 30fps....after spending probably $1k+ in video cards JUST to run it....and you can only max out at 30 fps....I think I'll wait till they get it a bit...higher? 🙂 If they ever do....not like theres any real support for it yet either...

Erm... You can run whatever fps you want

are you serious??? uh....the moniter will TOP OUT at 30fps, regardless of what the numbers show, yes you CAN run it to the limits of your hardware, but the moniter will NEVER EVER be able to run faster than 30hz. period. just like my 29" UW Frameless will never run faster than 60fps/60hz. Starting to see a correlation here yet?

Wouldn't 4k in 28" make the pixel density a bit too high? It's nice you can press your face on the screen and still not see the pixels, but text would be so small.
Think modern smartphone displays.

It's funny how most people on here see a new monitor launch and automatically think it's aimed towards gamers. Monitors are used for a variety of other things, other than games, where 4K res would be extremely useful.

I have 30" 2560x1600 monitor and I love it but gotta be honest here I was thinking modern but software makers are definitely not. I use windows 7 and scaling DPI makes every software to fall apart it looks like sh..t nothing is aligned and sizes of windows are a mess. I even tried preview of Win 8.1 because it has better scaling BUT it only works if software makers are programming it in their programs otherwise it is the same rubbish like on Windows 7. Anyway I am used to tiny fonts and interfaces but it can make you very tired sometimes. I use a lot of zooming in chrome and firefox and this is great feature. Anyway 4k with 28" is physically smaller screen than mine and resolution twice as large. I can't even image working with interfaces less than a half of what I have now it is simply going to be unbearable. It would literaly require you to sit 20cm of the screen to use it comfortably. In games it eats up a lot of gfx power to drive such a large resolution like mine so I can only imagine on 4k 3-way SLI not being enough. I think it is far too soon to buy one. Until Windows scaling is properly sorted out they are going to be more of a novelty for showing off than useful equipment.

Interesting.... found this over on the nvidia page after I googled it... A) HDMI The current HDMI 1.4 standard only has bandwidth for 4K at 30hz. HDMI 2.0 will add support for 4K at 60Hz. Details should become clearer in late 2013. There are a few TVs on sale today that support 4K @ 30Hz through HDMI. B) DisplayPort 1.2 DisplayPort can support 4K @ 60Hz using Multi-Stream Transport(MST). The graphics card provides signals for multiple displays but these are multiplexed on a single cable. Computer monitors such as the ASUS PQ321Q 31.5-in 4K 60 Hz Tiled Monitor take input using this format.
