V13 and 24" 4K monitor with no GPU?

Assuming Vegas 13 is used, would you see any problem using this monitor with Vegas 13 and HDV footage without a video card (i.e., using only onboard video chipset with an Intel Core i7 3.4 GHz CPU and 16 GB RAM)? Would it dog the system, or is that unrelated to the 4K resolution? More related to video file typ?

I wouldn't be able to discriminate the icons. I looked at a 27" 4K panel recently and decided it was too small for me.

I had the same thought...I wonder if it would scale nicely to 1920 x 1080?
I just like the idea of having a monitor that looks like my iPhone, i.e., no discernible pixels. When I do photo editing, the pixel grid of my LCD 1920 x 1080 monitor is somewhat distracting to me the (the photo files are in the 4K x 3k range).

2560x1440 might make a good pixel density for a 27" monitor. I've never seriously considered it, but the practical aspects are discussed here.

I use 2x Dell U2713HM 2560x1440 monitors and these are excellent. Sufficient to preview 4K but I wouldn't scale my desktop back to 1920x1080; it just looks odd. You can always change the icon and text size to make it bigger.

My Surface pro 3 can drive the two Dell monitors too, and its own display too to make it a 3 monitor setup. I have not tried editing HDV with this setup but even simple 1080 60i AVCHD at 28Mbps is not possible at Best/Full preview.

HD looks a pinch fuzzy on my 4K monitor, but that is expected after seeing 4k. Also sitting a foot or two from it - kinda close to see the lack of resolution in smaller res files. That said, I watch netflix in SD and looks as fine as you expect and never detracts from the experience.
