4k IPS at this price point is usually 60 hz
i have yet to see a 4k ips >60 hz (HDMI 2.1) monitor for <$450 in recent history. Kind of a bummer but time will remedy all.

Matte panel, going from reviews - FYI.

Does anybody here have experience with 4k @ 27" on Windows or Linux? How is the scaling - do you operate at 100% (1:1) or have a boost on? If a scaling boost, how well do most apps scale?

I got the Acer XV282K about a month ago at $380 from Microcenter, but the post needed some more traction /:

No you gotta set it at 125 or 150 but it doesn't matter it's a razer sharp image

Purchased it year and half ago for photo editing and regular office work in combination with Mac mini. It is one of the best monitors to work with for the purpose! No issues!

Most people operate at 125% or 150% (if your eyes aren't great) scaling. If have decent eyes or good eye correction, can deal with really small text and your monitor is about an arm length away, it's possible to operate at full resolution and 100%, albeit it takes some getting used to (this is what I do). But the extra screen real estate is really nice when operating at 100%. Note that if you screen share, unless someone else has a 4K monitor you'll likely have to change your scaling to 150%, otherwise people won't be able clearly see your screen share, then when you're done screen sharing, change your scaling back to 100 or 125%.

whats the advantage of freesync if you have an nvidia gpu and the monitor doesn't do over 60hz? I mean if I turn on vsync in the game and lock frame max/min to 60fps?

Bought two of these back in April from Microcenter for the same price to replace aging Dell and Acer 32" 1080p monitors.
After adjusting to the change in pixel real estate, the monitors have been a significant improvement in clarity in daily work (emails, Excel, some SQL and API building). I scale them at 125%, and don't hear any issues from others during screen share.
Will be switching from HDMI to DP tomorrow to see if I can weed out some random flicker issues, but might be the HDMI cables I'm using.
Overall, 4k upgrade well worth the price tag.

Not worth it. 4K text is hard to see on monitor this small, blow up to 200% text looks funny on most app.

So is it normal for 4k monitors not to go above 60hz?

I'm interested in upgrading my gaming monitor soon but it's a 1440p with 165hz refresh rate and I do use my xbox series x on it, so I would want something that is at least capable of 120hz.

Is that future tech that still isn't readily available yet? every time I see a 4k monitor go on sale here, it's always 60hz... are these not really intended for gaming?
