have they picked up on the fact there is no DVI Dual Link and some of us with older 120hz monitors like one in my sig does not have a display port ???

Technology moves on am sorry to point this out. But dual dvi is being taken over by DisplayPort..
Just like how scart died out so will dual div... You can't expect latest hardware to keep supporting old standards.
 
Quite a few sets in 2014 had acceptable input lag, particularly the Sony models, most manufacturers sets in 2015 are in the 20s and 30s, with 60ish being the absolute worst, rather than the best as has been the case in previous years. I realize that these figures are still not as good as some gaming monitors that are out now, but it would appear for many people that they are good enough.

Display type and feature set is always going to be a matter of preference. I love freesync and gsync and I love uber high refresh rates, I think the silky smooth motion these technologies give looks fantastic, I just love a 55" screen and a sofa more.lol There's no right or wrong way to play games, that's just my preference.

The point is, 4K TVs are ready for 4K living room PC gaming and there seems to me, to be quite a bit of activity on AV enthusiast forums suggesting that this is something that is ready to happen and that people are interested in doing it.

It's quite exciting actually to see everything come together.
 
With an active DP to HDMI converter, which has to do some signal processing, isn't that going to introduce a little latency/lag that a passive adapter would not? Not sure if it's significant amount or not?

I was just checking the latest 4K Samsung panels. Good job Samsung. 20ms is definitely good enough and much better than the last time I checked.

But I'll stop with off topic now.

Not really, wont make much difference to most people a tiny bit of input lag on the majority of games.

MOBA's are about the only games i play i care a little about that stuff
most the others are not competitive at all

a mattress on the floor, beside a tv & a half built pc behind it, thats my sick gaming setup lol
when i upgrade i dont think it will change much....

i think shanks plays cs tho, serious business!^^;
 
CES: A DisplayPort 1.2 / 2.0 HDMI

Tucked away in a VESA consortium corner booth dedicated to DisplayPort, we could see a prototype adapter that converts the signal DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 2.0. Offered by BizLink, who was also the first in the DisplayPort hub, this is an active adapter cable but does not need external power.

To prove that he was functional, a demonstration logs on a 4K TV 60 Hz HDMI 2.0 to a Mac Pro equipped with FirePros inconsistent with that connection. It was indeed a 24-bit per pixel format type, without reduction in quality, but probably without HDCP 2.2. We do not know if sales are due, and if this is the case when it should intervene, but technically this conversion seems to be possible.

Be interesting to see what the x2 fury will look like, that pcb they showed (prob a prototype) has the power connectors on the back of the board pointing outwards so seems like the tubing might come out of the top like the 295x2. Bit of luck they stick to the same design as the fury x only on a slightly bigger scale. 2 tach meters would be nice to be able to see load per gpu :)

4k Eyefinity Gaming With One AMD Radeon R9 Fury X Graphics Card

We’ve seen AMD and NVIDIA showing off 12K gaming setups at trade shows all the way back to 2013. Running three 4K Ultra HD displays side-by-side is still impressive looking now was it was then as you are looking at around 1.5 billion pixels a second of gaming goodness (running at 60 FPS). That is a ridiculous amount of pixels!

The most impressive part about the 12K AMD Eyefinity demo shown this week by AMD running the game title Dirt Rally is that they needed just one video card in the PC to push all those pixels at a playable frame rate, the AMD Radeon R9 Fury X. The frame rate was pushing 60FPS, which isn’t too bad considering what the single $649 graphics card is doing behind the scenes to push out all those pixels at an acceptable rate. AMD informed us that two Radeon R9 290X’s or a Radeon R9 295×2 get around 45-50 FPS on this exact setup. AMD used three Radeon R9 290X 4GB video cards back in 2013 when the Hawaii GPU launched to run Dirt 3 on a similar demo setup.

This HBM memory as I have said before is like, living down the road to ASDA with GDDR5, to getting kiosk in ASDA and living there. ;)

Crazy times and I love it, not that I will buy it straight away but it can only be a good thing for us in the long run ! ;)
