Kevin Firth 114 Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Hi all, I'm considering replacing my 3 screen setup with a newer 4K tv (only if I can sell the current ones to offset the cost, according to the boss!), so may have my current 3 monitors up for grabs. They don't seem to sell my model nowadays, but I've had a blast with them for a couple of years. Never had a problem with the display or colours at all. one of them has a dead pixel towards the lower right corner, but I've never ever been aware of it in day to day use. The other 2 are pixel perfect. Would anyone be interested? I've dropped a few links to the model below, plenty of reviews and pics there if anyone wanted more info...

britfrog 180 Posted March 17, 2015 Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 Kev, may I suggest that you hang in there a bit longer this 4k tv stuff could well disappear as quickly as the 3d stuff did , there is virtually nothing available to play on it and tv stations are talking years away, but only if they see the take up. yes it is great to see on the demos but I wonder if in 3 years time there wont be a new level , especially as 4k teles are so expensive at the mo 4 years ago my 40inch samsung LED tv cost m the best part of a grand now i can buy better for 400 call me a dinosaur but like with p.c's it pays to be a year or so behind the cutting edge.

Kevin Firth 114 Posted March 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2015 nige, its not for the tv part, I dont watch any of that anyway, its just for use as a big monitor. Id intend buying a (relatively) small second or refurb job, doesnt matter to me as long as the price is lowish As for 3D, did you not ever see the beach volleyball ladies demo in 3D 4K? That almost had me sold but for a last minute super improved reallife demo from my wife Link to post Share on other sites

jaydor 345 Posted March 18, 2015 Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Kevin, Have a look at this first, as I am getting this next month. better than 4khttp://www.scan.co.uk/products/34-lg-34uc97-219-curved-ultrawide-quad-hd-ips-3440x1440-300cd-m-speakers-black-dp-hdmix2-usb3-x2-thu Link to post Share on other sites
Bruce (a.k.a. brian747) 142 Posted March 23, 2015 Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 Wow! Congratulations — that looks very tasty indeed, James! (With <*cough*> the possible exception of the price. ) Cheers, bruce a.k.a. brian747 Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Firth 114 Posted March 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 Thanks James but thats outside my price range especially considering its only just larger then one of my current 27" monitors. An upgrade will need to be significantly larger to make it worthwhile and the only way to do that at a halfway reasonable outlay is a refurbed 4k tv... Cheers K Link to post Share on other sites
J G 927 Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 I have looked at a fair few 4K TV's and am just waiting for the price to come down, It will do. I haven't bothered with 3D, it is just a gimmick, My eldest has one and he never uses the 3D functions. 4K is a different ball game. The picture is so crisp as to make it appear almost 3D. It is the way forward. One day all TVs and monitors will be 4K, just as surely as flat screen took over from CRT. Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Firth 114 Posted March 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 8K are in development as well, but I dont expect to own one of those ever! Link to post Share on other sites
J G 927 Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 8k! that's 4k per eye. There has to be a limit to how much detail the eye can see. Link to post Share on other sites
