I have a 4k 27" LG monitor and it is awesome with my Mac. I use it with 150% scale and the font is ultra sharp, best monitor I've ever seen so far

Please check your eyesight. I can easily tell the difference between a 220ppi and a 280ppi display when viewing text even at one meter viewing distance. 4k@27'' is only 163ppi. And my eyesight is not even what it used to be.

To me, 163ppi looks more similar to how old ~100ppi displays looked that to my 224ppi iMac.

Have they fixed the performance issues with non-integer scaling?
