I have three 4k monitor - two is 28" ASUS PB287Q and Samsung U28D590D. Just newly bought 40" Philips BDM4065UC 4K monitor.
This is the best 4K monitor i ever see currently in the MARKET with such low price.
ASUS PB287Q - Problem is the cable must use direct mini DP to DP two way 1.2 version cable that ASUS even not provide it at all. If you using female DP to Mini DP adapter, Asus monitor will blinking but adapter work on all other 4k brand monitors.
Other problem will be the popular 4k issue - Blur font, Tiny font, big fonts, comparability of software, CT panel that limited to viewing angle, require massive graphic power and expensive.
Samsung U28D590D - Same Common issue of 4K monitor but without cable problem.
40" Philips BDM4065UC 4K monitor. - Basically all 4k common issue was solve by using large screen size that suit the 4k resolution. Price is cheap consider the size except massive graphic power is still needed.
Compare the color, intensity, brightness, response time, input ports and the price and viewing angle 4k CT panel problem solve by using LED - No doubt, 40" Philips BDM4065UC 4K monitor is the best of all 4k monitor
Except the screen size is huge that give inconvenient to PC gamers that require smaller screen size for viewing concentration. But there is a solution - Lower down the resolution to 3200 x 1800 or even lower as the screen size will follow to become smaller but retain the resolution that give more performance. I have try it on Call of duty all series multiplayer. It just like buying a 4K monitor that can tweak to difference screen size with high resolution.
If resolution lower down to 2560 x 1440 QHD. The viewing screen size will remain 40 ". The reason behind I really got no idea at all as I not an expert on LCD Monitor
This is what i truly experience it and no bias .
Pros
Cons
All 4K monitor common issue eliminated. Superior quality on brightness, contrast, color and lot of input port + USB, Cheap
Size of the screen is too huge (got solution) Simple monitor stand.
I saw that monitor and was thinking about getting it. I bought the same Samsung 4K monitor you have, but I'm running it along side an HP 1080P monitor and an HP 1440 IPS monitor. What graphics cards are running this thing? I'd like to have this be my primary monitor, but also be able to hook up additional monitors as well, since my system is also used for work, having multiple screens is necessary. Right now, I'll have all 3 monitors running and use the 4K as my primary, but if I want to play a game, I'll disable the other 2 monitors and only use the 4K.
