Asus MG28UQ 4K 144hz Free Sync

[tommi_6o]

Asus has released the first 4K 144hz monitor. There aren't any specific technical specifications about how they achieved high enough bandwidth to drive this display but they should be released later.

inb4 you will need 4 pascal gpus to run this thing

[SurvivorNVL]

How about 120hz 4K 32" G-Sync or freesync and AMVA+? :>

[DXMember]

so they are released or should be released later?

It should come to stores in the coming months.

[Notional]

You guys do know that DisplayPort 1.3 is being released this year right? All high end monitors will come with it.

Inb4 I return my MG278Q

Everyone who bought a 144hz 1440p monitor in the last few months is going to be mad right now

What would you call a company showing a new product and saying that you can buy it soon if  not releasing?

Not really... At least you can drive 144hz 1440p with reasonable hardware.

That's the only article I've seen that mentions that they are 144hz panels, so I'm not sure it's true.

Holy shit just saw that Pascal's Transistor count is going to be about 17 BILLION. Holly molly

and AMD is going to have 18 Billion, so what?

it's not the number of transistors that matters it's the way you use the transistors that matters, but having a great number of transistors can help

Im just saying. 17 Billion Transistors is pretty impressive.

Virtex-Ultrascale XCVU440 has 20b and Samsungs 16GB DRAM packs more than 137b transistors

It ain't the size of the dog in the fight, it's the cleverness and genious behind the dog's engineers, unless the dog is really f-ing big then you're screwed anyway.

[That Norwegian Guy]

Both Freesync and G-sync have been lacking a "killer app", one that stands out tall as the clearly best option.

 

Since ASUS have no reason to want to make one of the two technologies more widespread than the other (they make monitors for both) expect this to cost your arms and legs, your dogs paws and your great granny's ashes.

 

So it's largely going to be an irrelevant product for 99% of us. There's the 90% who won't afford it, and the 9% who can afford it but have working brain cells.

Cool, that it has 144Hz refresh rate.

 

Although I covered it on my topic here http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/521571-asus-rog-products-show-off-ces-2016-images-heavy/, I didn't know that they're 4K @ 144Hz.

That's why I reposted it here 

[kameshss]

That's why I reposted it here 

But still, Hardwarecanucks is the only source that says it supports 4K @ 144 Hz. I would love to see some official announcement from the Asus side.

[Doobeedoo]

Nice though. Would like to see 165Hz freesync one.

[sobe]

That's pretty baller, 4K + 144Hz, ASUS putting in work here.

[Belgarathian]

I feel like 4k and TN should never be an option. I thought we'd moved on to brighter skies, and greener pastures. 

 

Still.... 4K & 144hz, well done Asus!
