Question 1

Probably a stupid question, but do monitors themselves have to support a specific version of DisplayPort? With 1.3 and 1.4 coming out eventually, I just want to check.

Accepted Answer

Displayport is backwards compatible, and the monitor supports up to 1.4. Note that your computer will need to support 1.4 to run at 60fps at full resolution. 30fps is the maximum for display port 1.3 and HDMI 1.4.

The on screen menu allows you to switch between 1.4 and 1.3, so if it doesn't appear to support 1.4 (i.e. fps locked to 30), check the settings.

Question 2

Is this a 10-bit color monitor? whats the difference? How is it for photo/video editing?

Accepted Answer

I do not use it for editing. Only for virtual reality and movies. The picture is excellent.

Question 3

How well does this perform with 4k gaming at 60hz?

Accepted Answer

It has been my experience that this monitor handles anything you throw at it. It looks amazeing especially in games like arkham knight and black ops 3.

Question 4

will this work in 4K with my amd 7700 vid card? (Vid card has a displayport)

Accepted Answer

It mayor may not work for desktop viewing but the 7700 is not even close too being powerful enough for gaming. This monitor is 4k, I doubt your card can push 1080p. Sorry but the only cards that will come close for 4k are in the $300+ category. Sorry for the bad news.

Question 5

will it work in a mac pro late 2013?
does it come with thunderbolt connector?

Accepted Answer

Connections are; HDMI, DVI, Mini-DP (??), don't see a thunderbolt connector, unless it's the Mini-DP.

Not sure about Mac stuff, I'm using on HP-Microsoft setup.

Question 6

What is the height of the monitor (including the stand)?

Accepted Answer

Question 7

Does Acer S277HK monitor supports 60Hz refresh rate with Display port 1.2 cable?

Accepted Answer

Yes.

Question 8

Can you wallmount this monitor? Will you also link me a wall mount if you have the time? Thanks :D

Accepted Answer

Since this monitor lacks a universal vesa mounting system I don't think you can. Sorry.

Question 9

Does it work well with a mac-mini?

Accepted Answer

For very light work yes. But for something like gaming, I don't think you'll get a very good frame on such a small computer.
