pointless at 30"

???

4k @ 30" is great. Nice sharp PPI without needing any scaling.
At 120hz and with OLED I suspect it will meat or beat my CRT in most categories.
30" is the biggest you'd want for desktop use. Any bigger and you need a couch and living room.
Question is will it last over a decade, nut sure about expected life of current OLED.

...what do you have that will drive that 4k display at 60hz?

Any GPU of the last half decade will do 4K @ 60Hz. It's the 120Hz that's an issue. Need DP 1.3 or USB3.1 Gen 2. Fortunately after half a decade some new GPU's are coming, I've been waiting for them too...so pick one of those up with the monitor.
