I have a nMP on order, I want to know which 4K displays does support 4K@60hz refresh rate.

From I've read only is possible thru DisplayPort (TB2) (HDMI is limited to 30hz) using both channels, few displays with displayport does support it actually, which one are tested on the new Mac Pro and working. ( I Don't like the Sharp on Apple Store, only as last resort).

As far as I know Apple only supports the MST scheme used in the Sharp and Asus displays (which apparently use the same panel). Although see MVCs tale of woe with the Asus... https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1704708/
 
Seems a nightmare...

I Like the Asus PQ321, the smaller one, also looks good, and is supposed to support 60hz too (I hope with evolved settings UI).

Let's see the new 28" from Asus if also its an crap.

The other option maybe Lenovo (Idont expect it to be better than Dell, So I discard it now).

I'm considering Sharp, but a good 4K TV from Sony (a 65") is tempting, I'll reconsider coz draw too much power for an UPS to provideme at least 15" (unless I bought a bulty/heavy a 2KV ups, not in may plans).
