4k 55" coming soon starting at $5,000, will Nvidia support them?
Likely the prices will fall fairly quickly and eventually they will become affordable. Hopefully this post will get the gears of preparation turning so they support 4k as soon as they install the HDMI 2.0 chips, which are reported to come out fairly soon. I personally can't say enough about having a big screen with an 85+ degree in-game field of view setting. I believe it is only lack of having experienced gaming on a big screen up close that prevents this way of gaming in 3D to become the main way people game in 3D.

46" Samsung ES7500 3DTV (checkerboard, high FOV as desktop monitor, highly recommend!) - Metro 2033 3D PNG screens - Metro LL filter realism mod - Flugan's Deus Ex:HR Depth changers - Nvidia tech support online form - Nvidia support: 1-800-797-6530

Considering there still aren't 120Hz 2560x1440 displays, I think 4k is a ways off yet. That said, 1080p is a TV industry standard, 1440p is not. Maybe it will pick up faster in terms of 3D. Though... I'd like a 4k 3D projector, if anyone has one lying around? :)

personally i would love to see 4k mature over the next few years as my next tv will be at least an 80" 4k tv. still havent heard amd or nvidia mentioning 4k support other than using dual dvi. who knows, its just way too early for 4k anything... im hoping all this big tv stuff will soon be moot with developments like oculus rift. imagine if they could get 3-4k in that sucker!

I have a feeling 4k's going to be out of my price range for quite awhile, I still can't find a 65+ inch 3DTV to replace my 65" DLP for the little under a $1000 I paid for it 2 yrs ago. [quote="Kolreth"]Rift sits so close to your eyes that 1080 will be way better than anyone cares to complain about.[/quote] I hope you're right but with the warping going on to try to wrap that flat screen around peripheral vision I'm sure there will be complaints about it.

Nvidia supports Display Port 1.2, it has an effective bandwidth to 17.28 Gbits. So if the Display has a DP input, your good to go. The Radeon 7070 supports 4K via HDMI and Display Port.
