4K or 1080P

That EIZO is not true 240Hz. It works like TV (doubling frames or each other frame is black). Infact it is 120Hz.

Budget?  Location?

Thank you then I'll be Acer 75 HZ 4k.

Which GPU's for Acer 75 HZ 4k

no device can run at anything more than 60hz at 4K resolution....this one will do 75hz at 1080p...not 4K.

And for gaming at 4K i would recommend dual overclocked GTX 980ti in SLI...ideally titanX in SLI...ideally wait a few more generations before considering 4K gaming unless you play old games. We are not ready for 4K just yet.

This does 75hz with G-Sync at 4k

DisplayPort 1.2 caps out at 75Hz 4K, not 60Hz.

75Hz is the vertical refresh rate, not the overall refresh rate. The monitor itself is 60Hz.
As of now, no, 4K cannot go past 60Hz, as that's the max DisplayPort can do.

DisplayPort

DisplayPort is the best choice for connecting a computer to a monitor. DisplayPort 1.2 is capable of 3840×2160, 4K, at 60 Hz; or 1080p resolution at 144Hz. DisplayPort 1.3, announced in September 2014 is capable of 8K at 60Hz or 4k at 120Hz! No current graphics card supports DisplayPort 1.3 so to take advantage of the 4K at 120 Hz you’ll need to wait and buy the next generation of GPUs – you will definitely need multiple high-end graphics cards from the next generation to run games at 4K at 120 FPS.

I don't think you know what you're even saying. Horizontal refresh rate is how many lines are drawn per second, vertical refresh rate is how many times all lines on the display are drawn per second (i.e. the entire screen). Vertical refresh rate is what we just call "refresh rate", they are the same thing. So, 2 other points; first, HDMI 2.0 maxes out at 4K 60Hz. DisplayPort has 20% more bandwidth than HDMI 2.0. Secondly, according to the official DisplayPort website which you just linked, DisplayPort can do 4K 60Hz with 30-bit color. 4K 75Hz with standard 24-bit color is exactly the same amount of data.
