    PC case gear has them for preorder for $749 if you want something from Australia.

      Great didn't see that. Haven't ordered yet but very close!

  • TheContact on 16/04/2014 - 23:08

    A billion colours. So 8bit(edit:10bit) panel? Would be an absolute bargain if it is and has decent colour accuracy.

    can run at 60hz at 4K resolution good for gaming and movies.

    Only through DisplayPort, HDMI is limited to 30Hz.

    • furythree on 17/04/2014 - 11:55

      most graphic cards that can handle 4k will have DP

      • Nousernamehere on 17/04/2014 - 13:58

        Well of course, but people might think they can just hook up a HDMI cable and it will run at 60Hz. Considering even that Dell one that is linked a few comments down can still only run at 30Hz even over DisplayPort, I thought it was worth mentioning.

        Is that ok by you?

  • HeXa on 16/04/2014 - 23:10

    crap deal…. works out to be AUD 840 :(

    $749 at pccg -> http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&p…
    and mwave -> http://www.mwave.com.au/product/samsung-u28d590d-4k-28-3840-…
    and CA…..

    you get the idea

    EDIT: revoking the neg as I guess this is good for those who must have it one month earlier than AU stock

    • Click_It on 17/04/2014 - 11:59

      Yeah I just came to mention PCCG as well. Cheaper and local. I'm not sure what their shipping is but total would still be less than $840.

    Reckon these will be sub 500 in a few months.

    • fchis on 16/04/2014 - 23:26

      Reckon 4k TV will become cheaper than this soon. Kogan $999 55" 4k 3D led TV is already here.

    review here for those who are itching to pull the trigger…

    http://pcmonitors.info/samsung/samsung-u28d590d-28-inch-uhd-…

    for those who are wondering its a TN panel.

  • ProspectiveDarkness on 16/04/2014 - 23:33

    Main points:
    + Very high resolution (obviously)
    + 60Hz
    + Good horizontal viewing angles
    + Good response times
    + Good colour accuracy (not quite pro level, but still good)
    + Semi matte coating (well it's a plus in my books)
    - Expensive for a TN panel
    - Vertical viewing angles suck
    - Can display some non-uniform colours
    - No VESA compatibility
    - Stand can be less than solid

    • Elijha on 17/04/2014 - 00:06

      geez how hard is it to be vesa compatible at that size?

      • ProspectiveDarkness on 17/04/2014 - 00:37
        +1

        More to do with thickness than its diagonal size, but yeah, I don't think many people would lose sleep over a few extra millimeters at the back.

        Who needs VESA when you've got double-sided tape?

          Who needs VESA when you've got MEESTACARD?

      • furythree on 17/04/2014 - 11:56

        i ahve a 30" monitor

        these things are huge and heavy thats probably the issue

  • sprucemoose on 16/04/2014 - 23:44

    Wow that monitor looks amazing. How did I not know about this?

    Pretty good price IMO. I remember paying 900ish for the u2711 back in 2010.

    • Speedz on 17/04/2014 - 00:22

      This is Dell's more or less equivalent 4K unit…

      http://accessories.ap.dell.com/sna/productdetail.aspx?c=au&c…

      at the moment it sets you back at $899 but they might have 30% off sooner or later when they see how much Samsung are flocking theirs for.

      • dosada on 17/04/2014 - 00:31

        It is not at all, to different.
        From Dell site

        Optimal resolution:
        3840 x 21606 at 30 Hz

        • Speedz on 17/04/2014 - 00:36

          thats what I said 'more or less' they are still 4k but using a MST method which i dont know probably not going to sell well because they can only run at 30 mhz…

    • KLoNe on 17/04/2014 - 06:10

      I paid $1250 for my U2405 back in 2004.

  • sk3iron on 17/04/2014 - 01:21

    Honestly i'm more interested in the upcoming IPS ultrawide's like this one LG 34UM65 or the competing Dell U3415W (no official link yet and details are sketchy but apparently uses the same panel)

    • Speedz on 17/04/2014 - 01:45

      Very interested in the Dell U3415W.

      • sk3iron on 17/04/2014 - 01:58

        I know this is going against the grain here but i don't like the semi-industrial look of dell monitors and prefer the sleekness of the LG (in their currently displayed form factors)

        • sk3iron on 17/04/2014 - 03:17

          I actually intended to link the LG 34UM95 which is 3440 X 1440 vs 2560 X 1080 in the 34UM65

        • KLoNe on 17/04/2014 - 06:11

          You've just gotten my attention. Those look beautiful.

          i was about to shit on your post because it was 1080p only

          nice save

          the dell looks awesome if it really comes in at $500USD

          But imo, the 4k monitors will have a higher res, better aspect ratio and be value for money since 4k panels will be mass manufactured vs 21:9 panels

        • Click_It on 17/04/2014 - 21:05

          In 4K, I'm only interested in sizes of 35-39" so this 28" sammy does nothing for me, but that LG 34UM95 sure looks good, I'd be all over that if it was <$750 :)

          EDIT: I don't think it'll be long before they're well under the $1000 mark, since the 29" ultra wide screens can be had for near $500 now.

    • Ozvalue on 17/04/2014 - 05:47

      These are actually for pre order at mwave

      Reasonable price

  • Trance N Dance on 17/04/2014 - 01:21

    Should factor in the cost of the GPU setup required to game on these things :P

    • Timothy-Mineworker on 17/04/2014 - 08:10

      a Nvidia Geforce 780, or AMD equivalent, or 2 lower end cards running in SLI/Crossfire

      • johnno07 on 17/04/2014 - 13:32
        +1

        I think you'd want to be running a couple of 780s for this to be a worthwhile purchase for a gaming rig.

    • furythree on 17/04/2014 - 12:04

      i have a 2560x1600 monitor

      My gtx 780 struggles to maintain 60fps on ultra
      It manages but theres alot of drop frame rates

      just put that into perspective

    TN? meh…

    • Click_It on 18/04/2014 - 09:36

      We're still at Gen1 4K monitors

      Things like TN or 30hz and other shortcomings are still commonplace. Early adopters accept that, otherwise wait a few months, I think I've read the next wave won't be long.

      For my eyes, 28" @ 4K is too small, I liked the 39" Seiki idea but not the 30hz limitation. Seiki's 2nd gen are imminent but they've dropped the 39" size, focusing on the larger market.
