Why are you not using a 4k TV as a monitor with a comfy reclining chair?

>but muh input lag

false, my TCL 605 has only 14 ms of input lag, not noticeable at all.

The picture quality is far superior to 4k monitors

Because I have a 5k iMac.

Any more questions, pleb?

Why are you not using 34inch 2k curved monitor with posture supporting office chair in front of a natural light window?

It's like you don't want to be a healthy productive member of society anon.

wew.

When I was in-between apartments I crashed with my parents for a month and didnt want to bother unpacking my whole battlestation so I just used my desktop and my 4k TV and wow that was a learning experience.

Never under appreciate your monitor
>>
>>62450632
the minimum absolute lag I have ever seen in a monitor was 7ms, there are no 1ms monitors.
>>
>>62451063
The best monitors have 10 ms input lag
>>
>>62451033
Are you able to show a review of this monitor?
I want to know things like static contrast ratio, light bleeding, viewing angles, and absolute lag... for around 600$ on a monitor size I want I am willing to put down money on it, but I have to know its not going to fuck me doing so.
>>
>>62451063
what you were looking at is a tv where you can not turn any of the post settings off, funny enough the shittier the tv and less features they have, the better they become as monitors.
>>
>>62450689
why that keyboard bro ?
>>
>>62451063
yea it's just not the same, the response time is noticeable I used to think my hdtv was fast until I got an actual 4k monitor...not even close

Are there any good 4k HDR monitors yet? Or will I have to use a TV like OP

The big issue for me was PPI.

An UWQHD (3440x1440) monitor at 34" has 110 PPI, which is readable for OSes/apps with poor DPI scaling (e.g. Windows). But for 4k monitors, there's this big gap between 32" and 40" that 4k monitor manufacturers rarely produce in. 32" 4k is ridiculously small (138 PPI), while 40" 4k is good (110 PPI). But with 40" 4k you run into a separate issue involving the height of the screen.

It's easy for the head/spine to swivel left-to-right, but nodding it up-and-down repeatedly is strenuous. A 34" UWQHD screen is 13" high, which is tolerable if you're not sitting right up to the desk. But a 40" 4k screen is 20" high, which is enormous. For perspective, I have a 1080p TV which is 20" high, and I have to be several feet back from it to be comfortable viewing it (as a caveat, I have glasses).

If I can ensure that all the OSes on a system have good DPI scaling, then a 4k with higher PPI is a no-brainer. Otherwise though I'd rather go ultra-wide.
>>
>14ms
>not noticable

I bet you play all your games in locked 30fps because theres no difference between 60 and 30.

>>
>>62450029
My laptop already has a 4k screen and it's the only computer I actually use nowadays
>>
>>62450029
I'm short sighted and prefer not to need to wear my glasses when using a computer (mostly because they combine awkwardly with circumaural headphones).
>>
>>62450029
man, in that pic you really look like you have landwhale tier tubby ankles, or at least disproportionately tiny feet.

that said, I was one of the early adopter of 40"+ HDMI 2.0 TV as monitor a few years ago, but moved to a proper 43" IPS monitor more recently, mostly for minor conveniences like DP ports, better positioned headphone jack, etc.

will probably upgrade again after proper UHD@120 40"+ monitors come out.
>>
>>62452198
>I have tubby ankles

WRONG
>>
>>62452198
By then Tv's with HDMI 2.1 and 4k 120 tv's will be out
>>
>>62452232
Which matters very little until GPUs with HDMI 2.1 come out (not holding my fucking breath this time remembering DP 1.3 and HDMI 2.0 delays).

I would expect Philips, LG, and Dell to have 43" UHD@120Hz over DP 1.2 monitors next summer. Philips in particular has been good the last few year with adding meaningful improvements ever new year model.
>>
>>62452320

yes but they will have trash contrast ratio and not be HDR

>>62451138
That's the Apple keyboard.

>>62450029
I'm 90% sure my laptop would melt trying to power a 4k display of any kind

Not them but I have one of those keyboards.

Its great because the wide keys, short travel, responsiveness, and low profile make it really nice to type on.

Also looks nice

My only issue is that the control key and function key are swapped which leads to typos when switching to other keyboards, like the near identical, but logitech one I use at work
>>
But I am using a 43" 4K pc monitor instead.

I've become such a screen real estate size slut I'm considering getting a 27" portait on each side.

Please send help.
