If you want a 30" display instead of a 40" one.
>>
>>52641971
you're a retard. The human eye doesn't see in pixels.

You need some genuine GPU muscle for it to be anywhere near enjoyable, as beyond the obligatory vidya aspect, the average movie rip is still 1080p, meaning MadVR is coming into the picture at some point, so good luck using scalers on a budget "4k ready" video card or onboard graphics

Between choppy and fluid video.

30 Frames is fluid but 60 is noticeably smoother.
