120hz TV's and Monitors

So gigabyte aorus FV43U is releasing, it is hdmi 2.1, 4k, 144hz, 1ms (this one take with a grain of salt as its usually in the overdrive mode which gives crazy overshoot), and its hdr1000 certified, 97% DCI-P3 coverage, quantum dot VA panel. Its release price in my country is RM4899 ($1200).The US retail price to be slightly lower around $1099 (it seems first two weeks on newegg might be 999$, i’d say that’s one heck of a deal). Cant wait to see reviews

Another to lookout for is the ASUS ROG Strix XG43UQ, almost identical specs as the above monitor but it has 90% DCI-P3 coverage.

I’ll look at the 32” gigabyte, little bit bigger than I want but hdr 1000 does sound great.

Only the big one has hdr 1000 right? The other two are 400? 600 is the minimum I’ll buy. My current one is 400 and I don’t like it.

thats right only the big one comes with that, if im not mistaken the small ones tech will come in the future but through mini led first which is around 3000$ for the new asus mini led monitor with HDR1400 (and its not even hdmi 2.1)

Asus lays claims to ‘world’s first mini LED gaming monitor’ and it costs $3,000 | PC Gamer

This sounds pretty awesome, all the good specs but would look way too big in my desk. Mate of mine seems really impressed with it https://youtu.be/i-99mDZGOlk

I feel bad for some gamers, some sad ppl in the comment section are like “but my cx”. They don’t accomplish the same thing at all.

Yep. Some people don’t get it and straight away compare to the OLEDs. Fairly different products and the aorus is much cheaper in AUD then a CX.

Unfortunately that’s YouTube comments for you though.

For those who have the LG CX OLED, is there a way to turn off the “dimming” that happens after a few minutes of no activity? It gets annoying after a while. Thanks.

Yes via the service menu, but you’ll need a special remote (Logitech harmony can do it). However its there to protect the panel. All OLEDS have this and it annoys the hell out of me at times. No disrespect to OLED’s as I’ve had them for 4+ years. But my next panel will be miniLED.

Thanks for the reply.

A special remote??? WTH? I understand it’s to protect the screen but damn, it’s so annoying. Will definitely look into the Logitech Harmony remote. Thanks.

So I currently have a dual monitor setup (32" and 27") for my PC. I don’t really use the 2nd monitor much these days so I’ve been considering just going back to a single monitor but if I do that I want something bigger then 32"

I’ve been look at 34" ultrawides. The 21:9 aspect ratio doesn’t suit all games from the little research I’ve done. Anyone use something like that and what are your thoughts?
