    Looking to buy a 4K monitor !

    Hello everybody !

    So thanks to your help, I already ordered my monster PC and it's due to arrive sometime this week! Now what i'm still missing is a 4K monitor so that I can really take full advantage of my new rig!
    What im looking for is a monitor that will be used mainly for games and the odd movie / TV show around the 1k$ price, although not so much for competitive gaming (outside of wow) so I don't need something with a godly response time or anything like that! I have been looking at this Acer XB280HK 4K G-Sync Monitor but im wondering if there are better alternatives or if I should stick with this one when it's released?
    Once again, thanks in advance for helping me out !

    Personally I would go with Dell UP2414Q or NEC EA244UHD BUT, remember these are 24" (23.8). This is both good in bad in that the pixel density is very high but also that everything will be practically smaller and so scaling for windows may be needed.
