Thanks Ted!

Yeah, those were my thoughts as well initially – but I’ve read that some programs have trouble with icons scaling at 4K and that it would be more taxing on the computer to run 4K – and also that there were potentially issues with the screen displaying yellows in this Asus series. I don’t know if Creative Cloud programs are among the programs that have issues at 4K, but since most of the projects I’ll be producing will only be 1920 x 1080 I’m not sure if it’s worth the risk or the extra battery drain.

Also, this model has a touch screen, but because it doesn’t detach from the keyboard or fold over to act more like a tablet, I don’t think it will be very useful for drawing or anything else. So I’m wondering if I could find similar specs for less money without a touch screen, or if there was a computer with similar specs and a touch screen that detached or was able to rotate so that it could be used more like a tablet for drawing.

If anyone has had experience with these Asus computers or 4K after effects use in general, or similar computers to suggest – I’d love to hear about it.

Thanks James – I’ve looked at that thread actually, but it only suggests a couple options that both seemed to have a lot issues and flaws in reviews I read about them. I was looking into an Asus ux501 – but I’ve read there are issues with the screen – any thoughts?
