Samsung says that they gonna release a New monitor with 8k and go to 900hz

We have to wait CES in January

https://www.pcworld.com/article/1371206 ... 900hz.html

And its ultrawide. If it does 1440p@900hz, could it in theory be overclocked at 16:19 for greater refresh rates or vertical resolution?

If this is true, it's huge!

900Hz monitor already available next year. That's incredible.

Chief, if this is the case, it would be good to brief the reviewers on the behavior of stroboscopic stepping and flicker-less low motion blur before they make their reviews.

Otherwise, this could go horribly wrong, and we could face another decade of the general public dismissing ultra high refresh rates.

Edit: nvm. Original article from PC Gamer didn't say that at all...

It was just mentioning what's possible with dp2.1 on the new AMD GPUs.

Yeah, that's what I got from it. Not a real monitor at 900Hz.

This is a very fascinating rumor -- I need to fish a small message out to my contacts to see if this is anything true.

It also says it can only hit 900 Hz at 1440p.

It's half-8K since it's an ultrawide.

I wonder if it does the Zisworks technique of pixel-row binning to milk 480Hz out of a 4K120Hz panel.

It is also interesting that, according to AMD, more such monitors are on the way from other manufacturers

"...though AMD says similar high-res, high-refresh designs are on the way from Dell, LG, Acer, and Asus, starting in 'early 2023.' More info will be revealed at CES in January..."

2560x720 on a 49" 32:9 ultrawide though... refresh rate aside that's some 1997 technology right there.

Even with voltage firing in from multiple directions via a new backpanel array, I think it's going to be lucky to stretch to acceptable response times for 480Hz, let alone 900Hz.

900hz my ass, maybe in 15 years. We're barely at a legit 360hz tn panel. The 500hz wont be here for another 3 years

Reminder: This is Blur Busters.

Can it with the pessimism -- with a missing "/sarcasm" tag, this borders on a post violation.

Even if the rumors don't pan out, 1000 Hz is not that far behind.

I believe there's a misunderstanding from PC World of PC Gamer's article, thinking it is about the specific display when it's not actually about that specific display.

Here is the original article:
https://www.pcgamer.com/displayport-2-1 ... h-refresh/

It will probably still be an impressive display to sit in front of, and punishing enough for most graphics cards. It's worth pointing out that this is only the vanguard of a whole slew of 8K displays too, with Acer, Asus, Dell, and LG expected to show off 8K screens at CES 2023. These screens will support the new DisplayPort 2.1 standard too, with all the high-refresh goodness that comes with that.

You're looking at up to 900Hz at 1440p, 480Hz at 4K, and 165Hz at 8K. Nice. Obviously, AMD hopes that high-refresh gamers will want to grab one of its new RDNA 3 to gain access to these ridiculously high refresh rates, particularly as Nvidia has stuck with DisplayPort 1.4 for its Ada Lovelace GPUs.

When reading carefully, one can see that the mention of those refresh rates is referring to theoretical refresh rates achievable with DisplayPort 2.1, not refresh rates for that display in particular.

It may actually in the end turn out that it runs at a different refresh rate, but it is probably using the same panel as this 49 inch superwide QD-OLED product announced by MSI, which runs at 240hz

The 3 different 34 inch QD-OLEDs announced (and the 2nd freesync variant of one of them) run at approximately the same refresh rates as each other.
