Hey guys, for the past couple of years I've been using a 46 inch~ and a 24 inch TV. I've mainly been gaming on the larger TV, however now the 46 inch TV appears to be dying (as it keeps flickering for some period of time then goes and comes back).
I was kind of hoping to get a 4k with Adaptive-Sync (display port 1.2a) monitor however I believe that display port 1.2a won't be coming out for another year or so, and as I now have this problem pushing my schedule early of grabbing a monitor earlier, I was kind of wondering what would be the best option for now.
I've watched Linus' videos on the 4k monitors and basically what I got is that they're very nice, but the text scaling and such just plain sucks. I haven't managed to see a 4k monitor for myself and I don't even think there are any stores nearby that would expo a 4k monitor or TV with a PC (I live in a small town in the UK).
Obviously gaming at 4k would look great but basically require SLI/Crossfire GPUs. Obviously I could switch to 1080p mode but that kind of makes half the time that I'd be using a 4k monitor pointless.
I'm a programmer so having the real-estate space would be quite nice, and the colour reproduction isn't that important to me.
If I were to split the desktop up into 4 separate ones with software, I can only imagine that it would probably make the individual screens too small for a 28 inch monitor (again, I don't exactly have access to examples).
Looking at it, my thoughts were that the only real option that I currently have would be to get a cheap 1080p monitor, however I'd like to know what you guys would do.
As for my GPU, I'm using a 7970 GHz which has these connectors:
1 x HDMI (with 3D)
1 x Single-Link DVI-D
1 x DisplayPort 1.2
1 x Dual-Link DVI-I
