But a strength of this design was that it only required a single HDMI connection and would work with basically any current graphics systems. This controversy about the Apple displays is only. EVERY other color is 'faked' one way or another, no matter how sophisticated the display. Really, a screen displays only three colors, Red, Green, and Blue. This caused some less than desirable results with Windows usage and even in gaming where visual tearing was more prominent when Vsync was disabled. Bear in mind that ALL displays use some form of tech workaround to achieve all the colors they display. It was hard to beat at the time but the biggest drawback was the lack of 60 Hz support, the ability for the screen to truly push 60 frames per second to the panel. But it was 4K, it was inexpensive and it was available.
It was a 30 Hz panel, half a typical LCD computer display today, it had limited functionality and it honestly wasn't the best quality TV I had ever used. The TV showed up days later and we did an unboxing and preview of the experience and I was blown away by the quality difference by moving to a 3840×2160 screen, even with other caveats to be had. Using SwitchResX, I confirmed that the display was set to Billions of colors mode i.e. I first dove into the area of 4K displays when I purchased the SEIKI SE50UY04 50-in 4K TV in April for $1300 when it popped up online. Also, in Windows 10, you get an inbuilt screen resolution changer which I have mentioned. Plus, in many software, you also get features to change color or bit depth and screen refresh rate of the display.
4K is a developing standard that pushes screen resolutions to 4K x 2K pixels and if you remove the competing options discussion (3840×2160 versus 4096×2160 are the most prominent) this move is all good news for the industry. Many of these software can also work in multiple display environment where you can use them to set different resolutions for different screens. I think SwitchResX and Display Mastero can toggle 10-bit. Radeon 280X, Sierra, Nec PA301W and 24' Apple Cinema Display HD. If mine is enabled I didn't do anything special to enable it.
While the world of consumer electronics and HDTV has been stuck in the rut of 1080p for quite some time now, computers, smartphones and tablets are racing in the direction of higher resolutions and higher pixel densities. Both my monitors show as 30-Bit Color (ARGB2101010), but only one of the displays is 10bit to the best of my knowledge.
Talk to most PC enthusiasts today, be they gamers or developers, and ask them what technology they are most interested in for the next year or so and you will most likely hear about 4K somewhere in the discussion. You're not using a 10-bit framebuffer, so it's an 8-bit framebuffer.
Photoshop shows you banding, no matter what you do. Specifications and Overview We have spent some time with the ASUS PQ321Q 4K display and are ready to talk about our experiences thus far. I've also used SwithresX to activate 10-bit.
