I like a solid 60fps. Any time I see a dropped frames, or lagginess in a big scene, I pop into the graphics options and start cutting away fidelity until I get back to smoothness.
This is where Nvidia G-Sync technology will come in handily. It will allow a game to run at a variable frame rate without the graphics card being forced to send repeated frames so that the monitor can maintain 60hz. Instead, every frame rendered will be sent to the monitor as soon as it's available and the monitor will display it right away.
This will be doubly crucial for 4K displays, as otherwise it'll require far too much performance to maintain 60hz.
