Is there support for UHD TVs?

Just wondering what the best and biggest display is I could get for playing PoE on.

If PoE supports UHD then I'll go with one of those, if not, what's my best option?

I wouldnt play on a tv personally due to response times.

As for UHD then you want a minimum of 32" and anything higher is fine.
If you have an unlimited budget, you should really hire a person who knows what they're doing rather than ask for anonymous advice on an internet gaming forum.

Running games in UHD is often performancewise impossible, no matter what you buy. (at least until now)
And the performance of PoE is anything but stable, you want as much overhead as you can.

If you still want to get a UHD TV, buy something with HDMI 1.4 or DisplayPort, or else you would have to play in horrible 30Hz.
Perception is reality.
I don't think it has 4k textures...i seem to recall one of the devs saying that the texture resolution was over 1080 (or the were aiming at it) but it wasn't as high as 4k.

I play all pc games on 48" TV, works fine for me.
I'm playing PoE on a Triple 27" setup with a resolution of 7680x1440. PoE supports this perfectly fine and out of the box. No hassle with .ini files or whatever. You just have to keep in mind that this requires some serious graphics power to run properly. But, if you have the cash, go for it!

If you decide on getting a UHD TV instead of PC monitor(s), watch out for response times and 60Hz capability though.

dualmonitors. a normal 24' for skype/youtube and the likes, and a 50' for games via hdmi.

I have a 28" 4k (UHD) monitor. I've tried PoE in 4k but my system isn't up to the task and the framerate drops too low. also, you still can't zoom out any further. As someone else pointed out, get a 32" or larger display if you go 4k. I bought the 28" on sale and it's too small to work in 4k all of the time right now. Probably will be better with software updates over time. I still play PoE on it, but in 1920x1080 resolution.
