AHowesThere's some g-sync 4k monitors but in 27". Smaller screen plus 4k has gota make everything in Windows tiny.

It does but it's a non issue, since Windows has a setting that scales up the icons and such so that the desktop and programs and whatnot remain usable. But yeah, if I turn the scaling off on my 28" 4K monitor crap gets really tiny. In some ways that awesome because it's simply a reminder of just how high resolution these beasts really are. I've got stuff scaled up so it's still smaller than it was on my 24" monitor so I get more usable space on my monitor, but still larger than unscaled so I can actually use it.

I keep vacillating between 175% scaling and 200% scaling at 4K.  Basically at 200% the interface is exactly the same scaling as it is at 1080p @ 100%. However, as you know, it is so much crisper and detailed.

I've got mine at 150%. It took a small amount of adjustment on my part to get used to things being a little smaller, but it does make my monitor feel like it has more usable space, which it certainly does. And I agree, things look much cripser and detailed.

I just fired up the Witcher 3 a week or so ago and played for a couple hours. OMG. At 4K that game almost feels like watching a movie instead of a game. It's by far the most beautiful rendered video game I've ever seen. I haven't downscaled to 1080p to compare, but at 4K it's simply stunning.

I'm on a 50" Sammy JU7100. On a smaller screen closer up, I could use a smaller scaling value.

So i am playing the division right now. Probably play for 20mins because i am dead tired lol but will start my hour time tomorrow. Btw what the heck is that on my screen????

Haha! i took a picture but apparently it didn't upload via smartphone...anyways i figured it out. I had to go to nvidia settings and uncheck "Show SLI settings" :)

Okay, so after playing for about half an hour-ish i wasn't too impressed with the gameplay...maybe my settings aren't right?

I have turned all my options to ULTRA or very high depending what each category can offer me. Also resolution to 200% with 100% sharp details, and 100% object details.. My visual res was set to 1920x1080 and 59.94 frame rate. even after all this i was getting a little lag here and there...may because i was on wifi net since i saw folks in my game? i guess i can't play this game offline since it's online only game...correct?

ALSO, first i tried the 4k option but omg it was laaaaaaaaaaaaggyyy like screen tearing AF! and my game crashed when i tried reverting back to lower visual lol. i guess the 1.2 display port i'm getting tomorrow may fix this issue? also does it lag if my second screen is on desktop mode and changing desktop wallpaper every second? I will be playing this game more than an hour or so to see if I have a faulty card...
 
Thanks again in advance :)

I have no lag whatsoever in The Division or screen tearing on my Dell 4k monitor.  Like I said I get 40-50ish FPS.  And you do need to be connected to the net.  Even at 50FPS, it runs very smooth on my rig.  What were your temps like after 30-45 min of playing? 

So I read through most of the posts and skimmed some so forgive me if this has been covered but! I know this sounds stupid but I just want to be sure as it was the first thing that came to mind. In Nvidia control panel SLI default is disabled you do have it enabled correct. Just wanted to be sure.

The high bandwidth bridges are the best, like these ones from EVGA. For what you're doing though you're unlikely to see that much benefit from going to it. At 4K you might at times, but at any res below that you probably won't.
 
In The Division I often had that bug where changing the video settings and hitting apply during a game would crash it. It's not your video card.

I have no doubt that at 4K the display port 1.2 cable will be helpful. On my 4K monitor it was necessary to get up to 60 hz refresh.
