Vayra86WOLED... glossy... sensible res. Under 1K. This is moving in a goooood direction. Too bad Asus made it to my shitlist last week. Ill wait for the stream of copies and the inevitable minor improvements


Ill wake you up when they manage to float the monitor in open space and sell it for $10,- and added all your PC rear IO to it then. But for real now, have you really ever used monitor USB?!

Space Lynxthere is QOLED 360hz 1440p glossy panels now for $799, I am considering that myself as I am getting tired of waiting.

OnasiI would unironically like to see a 1440p option in 24 inches. That would be an interesting alternative to 4K in terms of pure clarity at usual desktop viewing distance without the massive performance hit. Probably won’t happen though. The demand just isn’t there and high refresh models with such specs are already exceedingly rare. Like, to my knowledge there’s three - the old TN Dell one, a current IPS from AOC and some unpronounceable 240hz panel monitor from some Chinese company that isn’t available outside of China.

TheDeeGeePass, need matte.

Space Lynxthey have this now in 360hz OLED

Gigabyte just released a new monitor, its 27", but has a physical button you push and changes it to 24" 1440p 360hz mode

wNotyarDHuh... I don't think unlit black borders make a 27" physically smaller (if desk space is at a premium).

Dr. DroThe vast majority of other monitors are matte, the whole *point* of the announcement seems to be the fact that this one is glossy.

High-end OLED TVs like the LG G-series OLEDs currently have some of the best picture quality in a semi-glossy coating which is as close to perfect as I could describe, but they aren't available below 55 inches and don't go above 120 Hz (144 Hz if you have the very latest generation G4 that barely just launched in main markets)

Space Lynxyeah but he said he wants the enhanced PPI too, so i just thought I'd mention it, since he also emphasized the rarity of that ppi without gpu hit of 4k

wNotyarDHuh... I don't think unlit black borders make a 27" physically smaller (if desk space is at a premium).

OnasiYou do understand how pixels on LCD or OLED panels work, right? That will be fairly counterproductive since what it will do is map virtual resolution to physical pixels of the panel. This would achieve the opposite effect to what I would like in terms of, say, text clarity. It’s strictly a “muh e-sports” gimmick. There is absolutely no need for a new model for something like this either, I can achieve the same on my 32 inch monitor with CRU and NVCP scaling. It’s not the same.


That too, although that isn’t something that is a concern for me.

Space Lynxits the same tech the new LG 32" OLED uses, where it can change resolution with the push of a button 32" becomes 24" I think this tech is better based on all the reviews I read, but I am unsure how it all works

jh_bergMost video cards have 3 DP and 1 HDMI. Why does Asus launch a display with 2 HDMI and 1 DP?

TheLostSwedeMost monitors are like that, for some reason.

RomoreduxASUS has amazing Warranties... =P

OnasiThe reason, to my knowledge, is that they all get the scaler chips and even full boards from the same source and this is the most cost-effective option that is still somewhat feature complete. More budget screens are sometimes fitted with ones that are just a single DP and HDMI akin to a first gen G-Sync module.
I think we actually discussed this before, Swede, like a month ago, in a news thread about a monitor with DP 2.1. They are a rarity because the scalers with support for it, especially at full UHBR, are expensive so far. Not because NV is sandbagging connectivity or whatever people bring up.
It’s all about minimizing costs, unfortunately.

TheLostSwedeNo, most companies don't get the full boards from the same companies and there are at least half a dozen scaler/driver makers with Realtek and MediaTek/MStar being the two biggest afaik. The actual PCB design varies a lot and very few products use the same boards, even though there might be some that do. Modern high-end displays can't have wires between the connectors and PCBs.
