4K, or UHD as it's otherwise known, has come a long way since the Asus PQ321 monitor launched at an eye-watering $3500 (~£2300) back in 2013. These days, adding a decent 60Hz 3840×2160 monitor to your gaming setup can cost as little as £350 (~$500), provided you can deal with lesser TN panels over their mostly superior, but far pricier IPS and IGZO counterparts. Aside from the benefits of a larger workspace, or increased sharpness with desktop scaling, the PCand not the consoleis the only place where you can game at native 4K, and at a distance where such a high resolution makes a visible difference.
