the refresh rate for the 4K is caused by an intel driver. little known fact :) only way for it to reach 60hz (which it technically could) would be for intel to roll out a fix. but eh, i've found a local store selling the 1080p version at a decent price, so i'll go for that one. i'll calibrate...

you guys don't understand my pickle though. first of, there's the fact that the 4k version is the only one easily accessible to me atm. so it's the obvious choice. getting the 1080p version has downsides in terms of store providing warranty. and about the screen. i've heard that the 1080p...

Thanks for that answer, it was very useful. my most important question is this: If i set the resolution in windows and in the nvidia panel to 1080p on this computer, will it run at 60hz? This would be assuming that the display connection is the bottleneck and not something in the display itself...

so i'm in a position where i can sell my 3 years old macbook pro 15" early 2011 version for the same price that i can get a Y50 here. the one with 4K resolution, 1TB hybrid drive, 860M (4gb), 16GB of ram, and an i7 cpu. i need it for work, the portability and gaming (it will be my main gaming...

so the refresh rate is bottlenecked to 48 by the display itself? i assumed it was limited because of the 4k resolution only? for example with hdmi on a normal monitor you can get 1440p at 30hz OR 1080p and below at 60hz. on a 60hz monitor at least. so the question is, what is the bottleneck in...

i know its defaulted at 48hz, but is that just the 4k? i want to buy this cheap beast, and i would probably constantly have it on 1080p. would this make it possible for it to reach 60hz, and thereby 60fps?
