The ASUS PB287Q uses an 8-bit TN panel capable of displaying 1.07 billion colors, but while it is certainly doesn’t offer the same image quality as the IGZO panel on the ASUS PQ321Q or Sharp PN-K321, it doesn’t look bad at all as the picture quality is excellent. This price point makes it very interesting as well as the fact that it supports a 60 Hz refresh rate with a single stream implementation. The ASUS PB287Q is a 28-inch 4K Ultra HD display that will be available on June 10th, 2014 for $649 in the United States and $699 in Canada.

There is just a single stream to be had, so the video card driver issues that once plagued so many are gone and 3840×2160 at a 60 Hz refresh rate should be standard. This means that as long as you are using DisplayPort 1.2-capable graphics solution that you should be able to just plug and play. In order to produce a 4K Ultra HD display with a more user friendly 60Hz refresh rate, monitor makers are moving over to a single stream (single tile) implementation. The last thing you want to see when you fire up a game is that only half your display is working. AMD, Intel and NVIDIA all were able to support this functionality in their drivers, but there were glitches along the way and they were pretty bad at times. Basically you had to use Multi-Stream Transport (MST) with DisplayPort to get two 1920 x 2160 images which are then combined to produce the final 3840×2160 image on the display. After a couple display firmware updates by Sharp we were able to manually configure the monitor to run at 60 Hz using the displays built-in controls (Choose Menu > Setup > DisplayPort STREAM > MST > SET). At the time this monitor was around $3500 and the display defaulted to 30 Hz, which meant that games weren’t smooth. Legit Reviews jumped onto the 4K bandwagon back in 2013 with the Sharp PN-K321 32-inch class 4K LED-Backlit display. ASUS PB287Q 4K Single Stream 60Hz Display
