Upcoming monitors?

[ericl]

Which monitors should we be looking forward to but aren't out yet ?

Anyone know what we're waiting for?

- Freesync
- 144hz+ ?
- Higher res?

What's next for BenQ, Asus, LG, Samsung?

oled or emissive quantum dots. probably the latter is better
>=250hz
>=10bit
<=0.5ms persistence scanning or strobed are both okay i guess at 250hz
some good antireflective coating like those on eyeglasses. (NOT THE MATTE GARBAGE ON LCDs)


thats what i want

not gunna happen any time soon given how consumers are being wow'd by the existing "new stuff" like 4k displays, ips, 120hz, gsync etc... and not realizing how much better displays could be

Oh yeah, of course, I actually meant what upcoming models will feature some of this stuff (or at least small improvements over what we currently have).

I mean, the strobbing we currently have is decent but far from perfect.

I figured maybe there would be a BenQ 2770z in development or something, maybe even an Asus ROG Swift PG279Z II, etc. I actually know little-to-nothing about emissive quantum dots, it sounds quite far off!

you can see the last few news posts on monitors here
What i find newsworthy here is:
- 34" 21:9 VA panel with 3000:1 contrast and 4ms comming
- Proper, default specced 144hz IPS panels being made at this moment
- displayport 1.3 released

- on top of that we know that freesync is comming
- also OLED TVs are becomming close to affordable, meaning the trickle down to monitors might happen in the next few years, till then VA is probably the best choice
- also LG has developed a much cheaper way to get way more yields out of their OLED manufacturing process

[quote=XoR]S-PVA technology uses 'DDC-II' to boost response times. It works by pre-tilting crystals by applying small voltage before desired voltage is applied to avoid overshoot when going from fully black to other colors. It successfully solves issue with dark streaking (dark smudges) and boost overall response times but at the cost of one frame of input lag so its not perfect solution. There is possibility to use normal RTC without pre-tilting and added frame of input lag but that will yield worse response times than there could otherwise be with DDC-II[/quote]
any va monitor with good response time probably has this little issue.

so with lcd's you can only choose two of the three

good colors
fast response time
near 0 input lag

personally i'm really not at all looking forward to the upcoming lcd monitors as i was lucky enough to get a crt monitor in ridiculously good condition. my hope is that there will be some good oled/emissive qd monitors available once my crt's die.

And this just poped up:

pretty cheap for a non-tn 4k, id say, nicely big, and a decent response time if that isnt bullshit....
although its still 60hz and has no gsync or freesync

Still I think G-sync will be slightly better overall , but Free sync will be better for the budget.
