what content do you have driving a 4K? is anything even recorded in 4k yet?
Gaming at 4K is amazing, the detail is really stunning. 30hz is super off putting though, I am spoiled by 120hz 1080P.
For regular desktop tasks 4K kicks freaking butt, you can have a ton of content up and manage it all. Sharp eyesight is necessary though desktop scaling is critical.
Gaming at 4K is also hilarious when you attempt to record it - I flattened my 840Pro 256gb SSD even attempting it. This may indeed have been a CPU* limit (AMD8320 @4.2ghz) though I suspect RAID0 SSD's will be required at today's speeds to do it nicely and not bring your whole system to a halt.
Edit: *CPU was likely the bottleneck from what I witnessed but the SSD probably couldn't keep up either. Anyone willing to send me a top of the line i7 + board + RAM will get first priority when I release the results

Kicked that off, it will run for a few hours now.

30hz 4k monitors are really only meant for office use. The good 4k Monitors aren't even out yet (HP Dreamcolor). The Panasonic BT-4LH310 is really nice but it's a Broadcast monitor not a computer monitor.

@thecreativeone91 I gambled on a $400 one; no regrets. Still nice for most of my gaming (strategy stuff) but again, horrific for anything action oriented (War Thunder being my primary vice.)

What's with people thinking it's so much work to not give everyone Admin permissions. http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/833988-how-do-you-punish-the-scalawags?page=5#entry-4404879 Sounds like another bad MSP. He also posts about getting Cryptolocker viruses a lot. hmmm.
