Samsung introduces first 144hz 3440x1440 displays for next gen GPUs (Displayport 1.3)

asim1999

 

Samsung is giving finishing touches to a new fleet of high-speed ultra-wide monitors. These monitors will be among the first to leverage DisplayPort 1.3, to serve up blazing fast 144 Hz refresh rates, on resolutions as high as 3440 x 1440 pixels. Samsung has plans of at least two monitors with these specs - a 30-inch, and a 35-inch display. The two will feature VA (vertical-alignment) panels. It's likely that the two could also feature adaptive-sync features, such as AMD FreeSync. The two could come out later this year.

 

This is great.The only disappointment is requirement of DisplayPort 1.3 to fully leverage the refresh rate and therfore the performance of GPUs unless they support it. This would really be a win if it launched alongside AMD's Polaris GPUs as they support DP 1.3. 

Not sure if Pascal does though.

While I completely understand the need for DP1.3, are there even any cards that currently have DP1.3?  I thought that it wasn't "officially/technically" released yet?

As far as I know it was release recently but it takes time for products to come out with it, because they are now allow to develop it in. It is like thunderbolt 3, that is officially our for a while but it takes time for people to develop products around it.

DP 1.3 cards aren't here yet. But neither are these monitors. This is the announcement of an upcoming DP 1.3 display, just like we've had announcements for the upcoming DP 1.3 graphics cards.

So with new DP 1.3 there will be 1080p monitor with 240Hz since it was shown on slides lately. Wow, I'd use that for online FPS games.

DP 1.3 was announced and released in 2014, but as of yet no product that has been release has used it.

I'm quite certain DP 1.2 is capable of doing 1080p @ 240 Hz already and some 240 Hz monitors have existed for a while now although they are not true 240 Hz (basically 120 Hz with frame insertion to double the refresh rate). It's more of a panel limitation I'd say than anything else.

This is going to be an expensive year /sigh

 

I'm thinking maybe two Polaris 11 and one of these for that everything on ultra at 21:9 1440p 144Hz? :)

Are you saying Nvidia is the only good GPU company?

The only Nvidia GPUs worth getting right now is the 980 ti and gtx 950. All the others are beat by AMDs

Is anyone else sitting here going:

"Awesome! I hope this drives down the price of that new ASUS one so I can get it!"?

the PG348Q? Not me, and the price would only drop like 100$ anyways, tops 150.

I already have mine ordered as it's released tomorrow.

Inet, Swedish retailer.

It's around 1399$, so 100$ more than the Acer one. I went with Asus because the acer has some issues so I'm hoping the ASUS one doesn't and if it does I'll just return it lol.

Strange that it doesn't even show up on any North American retailers.

Implying 4K makes a big difference over 1440p at that size...

So apparently tying = beat now...

And you do realize the market share differences right?

OT: Wasn't this already a thing? X34 from Acer?

Just remember: Random people on the internet ALWAYS know more than professionals, when someone's lying, AND can predict the future.

It does indeed. Vertical size makes a big impact on how much you see in a window, whereas ultrawide doesn't help when you're viewing web pages or code for example. Not to mention uhd completely contains 3440x1440. As for being able to "tell the difference" in definition, at 40cm I can spot individual pixels on my 28" monitor at times. I wouldn't go much denser than that, but it's not like it's going to waste.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨
