A down side to 4K displays

My old trusty Matrix screensaver can't handle it.  It generates out of memory errors

Surely a 4k display will have it's own cool options,no?

No.  It has no cool options and 4K displays are very harmful for you.  Your best choice of action is to package it correctly and send it to me for, er, proper disposal.  Yeah.  That's it.

  I have one of the old 1920 x 1080 set up as a second display.  I throw stuff up there that I want visible but out of the way.  Whenever I look over at it I can't imagine having ever been constrained to only 2 of those with nothing else.
 
Yes, I have been spoiled very quickly.  This thing is great.

It's an ASUS card based on the NVidia GT640. It came installed in my ASUS PC

I saw nothing saying this one wouldn't work with a 4k display, but it works with Windows 10 which may indicate it does.

I don't *really* care about screensavers *that* much.  This was just an opportunity to talk about my cool 4K display again.
