ViewSonic banks on 4K with the VP3280 monitor

Incredibly detailed images will soon be available for all monitor enthusiasts out there, but at what price? OK, so maybe not all monitor enthusiasts.

Whenever I see the words "4K monitor," the first thing that usually jumps into my easily distracted noggin is "games!" Or, more specifically, "Wow! I can't wait to see what games look like running at a 4K (4,096x3,072-pixel) resolution!" Or something to that effect.

The second thing that pops into my head is "how much?!" Unfortunately, ViewSonic has not yet named a price for its new 32-inch 4K VP3280 monitor. As for games, well, that will depend on how capable your video card is and the willingness of game developers to support such a ridiculously awesome resolution.

This is really all the info we have so far, but we'll be sure to get some hands-on time with the device in Vegas next week and bring you as much info as we can on this and many other products making their CES 2013 debut.
