[mythtv-users] nvidia card for 4k display

[George Galt]

Agreed.  As a monitor it has some issues -- 30Mhz refresh rate at 4K being
the biggest, but also issues with timeouts/screensavers and switching
inputs.  I've been tempted to make the plunge, but haven't pulled the
trigger.  I'm assuming that as a desktop, the refresh rate won't be an
issue (static text doesn't need much of a refresh).
