Hey all. I'm looking at getting one of those cheaper Samsung 4K monitors, mostly for the crisper text (at least where there's High DPI support) and ability to fit more on the screen while working on the desktop. But I also do some gaming on my desktop PC. While the GPU (a GTX 760) I have is fine for 1080p gaming, it'll be woefully insufficient for gaming in 4K. My understanding is that with these single scalar 4K monitors, you can just turn the resolution down to 1080p (or 1440p maybe), but in none of the reviews I've seen does anyone actually do this.
Has anyone tried? What do the results look like? Any gotchas, or should I just spring for the monitor and expect everything to work fine?
