CORSAIR Launches UHD 4K and QHD 240Hz XENEON Monitors

[ARF]

That's not true. 4k 144hz 27" starts at $700 for the LG. Not $500. And the $700 is a big sale.

You can find the 28" gigabyte/msi/samsung ones starting around $650 unless on a big sale but they aren't at the same level as the LG model.

Also 1440p 200fps is way easier to hit than 4k 120fps. 1440p at 270fps is about equal to 4k 120fps. (multiply by 2.25)

Well, the performance hit is not that bad - you won't see a quarter of the framerate if you move from 1080p to 2160p.
220 FPS down to 144 FPS.

I want to see more 22-inch and 24-inch offers.

nice with more 4k screens and new brands. but prices are way to high, 500 dollar 4k ips 144hz is pretty easy to find now, and 32" is way to large, pixels get visible and takes up to much desk space.
and the 240hz 1440p model is really hard to enjoy, so many games dont reach 200hz+ . its easier to get 4k 120fps than 1440p 200fps. on top of that 4k respond well to dlss and fsr so the resolution dont hurt performance that much.

32" is the sweet spot for me and I don't need to go any higher.

Prices for the 4K are very reasonable. How much is a 60Hz Dell 32" 4K Ultrasharp. This monitor has 100% AdobeRGB and HDR600 and does 144Hz, much better specs than many "pro" monitors so will be good for photo editing too. I await full reviews and comparison to higher priced monitors like Asus Pro Art etc.

The little GIF they have for 60FPS vs 144FPS (the 32" page) might be the best representation i've seen a monitor company use for that, yet.
Sure it's more like 20FPS vs 30 in reality, but it gets the point across clearly.


I've been looking into high refresh 4K displays and the markets a mess right now - samsung has the G8 and G7's, but they've got major quality control issues and Gsync/freesync flickering thanks to the VA panels :/
32" 4K IPS, 144Hz - freesync should work on nvidia with an IPS panel at least
Hopefully it doesnt *need* icue for anything more than firmware updates

But then the questions we shouldnt have to ask: Did they lie about the HDMI ports like samsung did, with HDMI 2.1 phyiscally but only HDMI 2.0 in reality/firmware? Does HDR work on these, or just another marketing gimmick? (seriously, HDR on monitors is a crapfest)

I guess you like running the lowest settings or playing reeeaaally old games then as well

freesync premium has frame doubling

Getting a 240Hz 4K screen doesnt need 240FPS - if you get 60FPS, you'll get it doubled to 120 (or quad to 240) - this genuinely does give better response times and a faster 'feel' even at lower FPS, and i'm still salty my displays have flickering issues when it's enabled (not officially Gsync compatible)



As a dedicated 32" monitor user, I just assume the people liking small screens are very very small. 32" on a mount takes zero desk space, and at 1440p you cant notice the pixels unless you're close enough to lick the display. As panel types have improved over the years and backlighting has gotten smaller (look up micro-LED displays for the best of the best examples), the pixels get far less visible.

4K at 32" is glorious, and with Freesync or Gsync gaming is still low latency and fantastic, but yeah - I want that LFC frame doubling my 1440p 165hz display has, on my 4K display

Dell doesn't really compete in this market and their monitors now usually include other niceties like ethernet to replace a dock or DP out for daisy chaining. 100% aRGB is also nothing special and should be the minimum requirement for any new IPS display.

The spec it has above pro monitors is 144hz because pro monitors don't care about that, it misses hw calibration, calibration from the factory with specific guarantees, etc. It's a gaming monitor, it's a bit silly to compare it to a pro monitors, they offer different feature sets even though there's obviously some overlap

I never said they competed, I'm just talking specs and performance and the Corsair on paper looks excellent value as long as the IQ is not junk. I've given up on Dell, they really dropped the ball on high end monitors.

samsung have too if you go read the reddit reviews - people are getting wildly different experiences with the 'same' product, with RMA's and returns giving something with extremely different behaviours
Heck they advertise HDMI 2.1, but still have them all locked to HDMI 2.0 pending 'firmware updates' - consoles cant even use 120Hz on a 240Hz display

Things like this scanline issue... although his methods to reproduce it involve the pornhub comments section. sigh.

Seems that having black and white content triggers serious issues with their top end panels, and they have a physical variance to go along with it as to how bad it'll be

G8 scan lines:

Right now, high end monitors are an expensive gamble with quality control issues, HDMI issues and outright just bad problems like the scanline problems.
There are so few actual panel manufacturers that multiple displays from multiple brands end up with the exact same problems, but you never really find out from the less popular models til you already own one.
