What are these 4k bluerays you speak of?
Last I checked it wasn't even confirmed if the 4K spec would be 10bit or 12bit colour. Movies are shot at 4096x2160 so there should be no black bars.
4K is 4096x2160 (1.9:1), so yes, anything shot at that res would have no black bars if shown on a 4K monitor. But if something has been shot at 2.35:1 (21:9, Anamorphic Scope), you'd have black bars. See below.What are these 4k bluerays you speak of?

Starting to get some very nice monitors lately. I love my LG 34" super wide monitor, LG are getting to be be a pretty damn good company.
As soon as LG release a 4k-5k 60hz-120hz Gsync super wide (maybe curved) 34" with the best display port/hdmi ill be buying it. No chance anything like that would be out this year, let alone next year. Thank god my rig would cry anyway.

Crikey. This is expensive/overpriced.
Could someone explain why I would pay £1k for this monitor, when I can get a 16:9 ratio monitor (with slightly lower resolution), for half the price?
At this price LG cannot be serious about selling many of these monitors.
This is a genuine question.

Guys
The price will be going up when stock lands next week, we have had a roasting over it as were selling below the price distribution will be selling out as it should be around £1300.
So grab one whilst they are cheap, one of our business customers ordered 20 today as were over £50 cheaper than distribution pricing to traders.

This model has an IPS panel. The cheaper models use TN panels which can't come close when it comes to colour consistency and hence accuracy. Plus this model features a wide colour gamut. It has completely different capabilities besides just resolution.
Maybe you will agree with me here but I think 1k for this is exceptional value, people seem to be a bit unrealistic with how much a decent IPS panel cost, I mean DELL 30" which is a much older panel is still over £800 and selling well still.
I absolutely agree. I don't think some people realise that the cheaper models use TN whereas this is IPS. And the colour gamut is a bonus in my book (especially for future 4K content!)
Yep.
Also because I don't 100% trust LG, can you confirm this LG truly is a one panel solution mate and not two stitched together?
Just for me this LG seems to good be true at this price considering how expensive the DELL 32" is which is two panels stitched together like the Asus?
Yeah it is SST so it is just a single panel and reports in Windows as a single screen. The OcUK price really is insanely good at the moment and even the LG RRP is strangely low.

Yeah they suggested to me £1299, what RRP do you have m8?
It was ~£1300 as well. Even that seems decent though, in my opinion. I guess I'm just comparing it to the IGZO models like the Dell which seem to be more expensive but inferior. Just seems like a solid and unique product with a nice price tag. Obviously £1000 is even more awesome. Have you been given any idea about the availability/price of the Samsung U32D970Q yet incidentally? It's the closest match to the LG for those who want the 16:9 ratio really.
In long discussions with Samsung it's available now but my cost is about £1500 and they want me to sell it at £1600ish. Had to refuse simply as the LG is it's equal for over £500 less, so they are coming back to me.
The LG will return to £1199 once in stock and we hope to get Samsung down to around £1300 to customer.

Would a GTX 970 (I'm fairly certain my GTX 480 will have to go ) power Counter Strike Source & Counter Strike Global Offensive at max settings (AA not important).
I'm guessing this monitor would also be good for productivity in terms of using statistical software, Excel etc etc?
