Gigabyte Unveils New 4K and 1440p QD-OLED Gaming Monitors
Gigabyte has launched a couple of new QD-OLED monitors in 27- and 32-inch flavors. Although targeted primarily at the gaming crowd, these new monitors do not bear the AORUS branding.
The 27-inch variant has been dubbed the MO27Q2, and rocks a 1440p panel with a refresh rate of 240 Hz. At 109 PPI, the monitor is likely best suited for content consumption rather than creation, although the claimed 99% DCI-P3 coverage and maximum HDR brightness of 1,000 nits (3% APL) might suggest otherwise. Being an OLED, the response times are exceptionally fast, at 0.03 ms G2G.On the other hand, the 32-inch variant goes by MO32U, and offers a 4K panel with a respectable PPI of 140, albeit with a lower refresh rate of 165 Hz. This variant is extremely well-suited for content creators as well, as it also features 99% of DCI-P3 coverage and a 1,000 nits maximum brightness (3% APL, HDR). Both the monitors also rock DisplayHDR True Black 400 certification and are compatible with FreeSync Premium Pro and G-Sync.
As for ports, both the units feature dual HDMI 2.1 ports, a single DisplayPort 1.4, a USB-C port with DP and 18 W Power Delivery, dual USB 3.2 Type-A ports (Downstream), and a single USB 3.2 Type A port (Upstream). Ergonomics wise, both the monitors feature +15° to -15° swivel, 130 mm height adjustment, and -5° to +21° tilt along with 90° pivot capabilities. There is no word on pricing yet, but more details should be available soon.

Probably, I will have to wait 5 years but until then, you folks can be the BETA testers. :)
I enjoy being a tech enthusiast (don't put that in my car though).
