    Indeed.
    HDMI 2.1 is required for 4k 120hz, so cant be done currently due to there being no GPU's with HDMI 2.1
    ALSO, the C8 uses HDMI 2.0 anyway so cant do 4k 120hz.
     
    It does have a 120hz capable panel however and can do 1080p 120hz via HDMI 2.0.
    As of right now i no not believe the C8 can do 1440p 120hz.
     
    If u want 4k 120hz u may want to consider either buying a newer C9, or wait for the smaller but newer CX 48" to release sometime this year.
    It will have added gaming features and is directed towards gamers.
    It will support 4k 120hz via HDMI 2.1 (so ull need a newer 2020 GPU when they release that has HDMI 2.1), and has VRR and BFI along with low input latency ~ 5ms.

    No, the LG C8 is actually a 120hz display, theoretically even capable of 4k@120hz.
    However no current graphics card supports hdmi 2.1 so all you can do is either 4k60 or 1440p120 but in both cases a standard HDMI cable should do the trick. 
    I'm not sure if 8 meters Is that much of a problem here. My brother runs a 10m cable to his 4k TV just fine. No HDR though.

    Edgar_S got a reaction from Envit0 in Best monitor to match a 2080 Ti   
    Kind of torn between a 100-120Hz ultrawide (34-35" at 3440x1440) and 144Hz 1440p monitors. Ideally, I would want an IPS panel with true 10 bit HDR and G-Sync at 120Hz or more.  
     
    There's a bunch of options from Asus, LG, and AOC for all of these requirements. And no I will not pay 3k ish for an Asus ROG Swift PG35VQ.
     
    Please share your opinion on this as well as hands-on experience with these features (100 vs 144hz, HDR or no HDR, IPS vs a good TN/VA etc)
