4K LED TV prices sure did drop...

[Anonemous]

Holy moly, didn't know 4K TVs were within reach... too bad no fiber for 4k streaming....

For those looking there's a 50" 4K LED NON name brand SEIKI TV for $1,299 at Tigerdirect at this moment...

Knowing my luck, I'd get a dead or stuck pixel and end up breaking it in half. Even a single dead pixel pisses me off.

What 4K content is available?

They're 1/4 the size though, I'd be surprised if you could see one even 5' away except maybe on a static white screen

Not much but Netflix is supposed to start streaming 4K in a year or two.

 

[rcpratt]

Yeah, more interesting once there's content. Guess somebody has to start though

Could be used as a giant monitor.

There's plenty if you have one of these and this.

I am extremely anal. I sold a 2 day old Nexus 4 to a forum member (in person) here a few days ago for like $150 off. He looked at the microscopic ding I put on the screen and was like WTF.

Any imperfection on my screen and I will literally never use it. Something like a TV would be a huge PITA to ship back, so I'd probably sell it for half price or something.

Damn that is a huge drop indeed. I swear the cheapest thing was like an $18k project a year ago, maybe I was wrong.

I guess they are trying to pressure the big names with cheap 4K TVs.

 

[RaistlinZ]

SEIKI brand? I'll wait for a Samsung.

 

[Red Squirrel]

Damn, that would make a good computer monitor to get more pixel real estate, though it would be way too big physically especially with a triple setup. Too bad they don't make actual 4k monitors though, well they probably do but they're far from within reach.

amdhunter, PM me if you ever "wreck" anything else

Chances are it came out of the same factory and was handled by the same tiny asian hands anyway. :awe: Hands of precision.

The 85" one is like 35K-$40K. Still trying to find out who makes the 4K panel for Seiki.

I am guessing it was 15 years ago but I took my wife to see a plasma TV. It was $18k and IIRC, 27".

Like I mentioned in FW and SD...

[FONT=Trebuchet MS !important]Think of it, current 24"-70" HDTV screens having the same resolution of 1920x1080. It's the pixel density that counts. So a 24" screen would have denser pixels than a 70".

Same pixel density 35ppcm(88PPI) as a 25" (if there is such a screen size) at 1920x1080. So it's like putting 4 of those panels together to create a 50" screen.

Also, what kind of gaming rig would you need to power that monitor? sli? 3-way crossfire? quad sli?

I have a 46 inch Seiki and its pretty darn good. I have no complaints. The TV is ultra thin and the picture is good. The color isn't perfect, but neither are cheap samsungs.

There's someone on these forums with a triple monitor, quad-sli Titan setup. :biggrin::awe:

Drop me a PM if you do so

Oh. You should probably try being less anal.

triple 30" monitors

Good price! Think I'll wait for HDMI 2.0 though.
