I have One and absolutly LOVE IT!!

over 4million pixels vs only 2million for regular HD monitor (1080x1920)

You must see the difference! It's like....WOW!!!

Anyone else trying this or even better?

I would take a screen shot, but you would not be able to see it as it truly is...

Requires a special "Dual-link" DVI-I cable and graphics card that supports this.

Definitely nice if you got 4k content to watch , I like where technology is heading: retina display on big screen... But for a while we'll stick with 1080p on 42" for CAD. Don't you find text and icons getting too small on 4k ?

no. I am a Dental Tech. I have good eyes. 4k is a different resolution anyways and I think it for TVs. It is not a WQXGA. That is not what I have. I have a professional grade computer monitor, not a TV.

We are not watching movies or playing games.

64-bit exocad can absolutly run in WQXGA or 4k, and you can get that much more data on the screen.

So, yes. I do have content to look at. It really helps for full arch cases, and no need to keep zooming and sliding your model all over the screen.

You like looking at individual pixels on your television 42", or are you sitting Ten feet+ away from your monitor?

As you go up in resolution, you go down in viewing distance. For a monitor sitting 1ft from your face in a Dental Lab environment, my 30" WQXGA monitor would be absolutly much better option for me.

If you have only 1080, then you should be 19-22" at the max. Anything else bigger, and it starts to look like a checker-board of pixels. Bad idea! If you want a bigger monitor than 19-22", then you should go up in resolution. It's the only way.


Below is recommended viewing distance for your 1080 monitor....

19"
2.5' – 8.0' (0.7 – 2.4 m)
22"
3.0' – 9.0' (0.9 – 2.7 m)
26"
3.5' – 10.5' (1.0 – 3.1 m)
32"
4.0' – 13.0' (1.2 – 4.0 m)
37"
4.5' – 15.0' (1.3 – 4.6 m)
40"
5.0' – 16.5' (1.5 – 5.0 m)
42"
5.5' – 17.5' (1.6 – 5.3 m)
46"
6.0' – 19.0' (1.8 – 5.8 m)
52"
6.5' – 21.5' (1.9 – 6.5 m)


My 30" WQXGA is perfect for desktop viewing. New ones are around $1200 or so? Incredible colors and viewing angle is 179 degrees from all sides without funky things happening to the image.

Yes, Dell U3011 here, not for CAD but for office work (spreadsheet is what I do and my eyes seem to be older than me)

By the way, I have 15 or so photos you requested of scanners at the Exocad stand in IDS, do you still want them?
