when will we get monitors like this at this size, because honestly i hate large monitors as the pixel density is far less than like a 21.5 or 23 inch monitor.
4K 144hz? In pixels per second you need a new standard that can handle 2.4x the bandwidth. Or two cables that have 1.2x the bandwidth capability. not to mention the hardware to drive it,.. Woof
well we have 1440p displays at 144hz, cant imagine 4k 144hz ones are far away. wouldnt thunderbolt 3.0 be able to handle the bandwidth requirements? its supposed to be 40 Gbps.
id also take a 1440p 144hz 21 inch monitor.
i cant imagine any gpu pushing that many frames, but they might be able to in a few years and it would be for me a long term investment.
in all honesty, this is at the very bigining of movement in the features of these higher end panels. i would wait until next year to be honest. Wait for these panels to become reasonably priced. Waity for GPU's to be able to power them decently. Its just not the right time to buy in. Though i really want a 21:9 1440p screen with gsync. But who knows if gsync will still be a thing in 3 years? or what if I want to go AMD down the track (The 8GB 290x's really tempt me) I say wait. Not a great time to buy in just yet.
Just to derail momentarily. Open standards are always a better option for longterm nsupport. So for that alone. Go freesync. May not be great support at the beginning but as monitor makers get cheaper and tighten up a bit open standards being free become very inviting compared to a $100+ markup for proprietary hardware that they have to custom built panels for.
On the monitor wait a year or two. But personally I just cannot see aarket for 22 inch 4k even in a few years
Maybe 24 inch.
When will we get monitors like this? 15 years ago. My 15 year old CRT supports up to 344Hz and 2560x1920 (obviously not at the same time), all with OLED-level color and contrast. I usually use it at 2304x1728@70Hz.
is it the sony fw 900? how do you use it with a modern graphics card?
A 21:9 Gsync curved display at 1440P 144hz from Acer was announced by the way. Probably cost a fortune though.
Or just 144Hz capable panel that has adaptive vSync/Freesync, even if the fastest GPU on the market can't output 4k at 144Hz if the panel can do it and everything supports adaptive vsync then you'll at least get the smoothest possible image out of it.
Curved and Gsync are both fails.
depending on the game we have cards that can do 144hz 4K. We don't have a single connection standard that can transfer that is what i mean.
VGA? because VGA has infinite bandwidth. It's analogue so yea...
Yeah, but with Adaptive vSync/Freesync that the connection standard itself can't handle it doesn't matter so much since what the panel can revive will be properly sync'd to eliminate tearing because the panel tells the GPU when it'll be ready for a new frame instead of the GPU just sending them as fast as it possibly can, which results in the tearing.
So what the GPU can run Quake3 at 600FPS, what matters is how fast the GPU can spit out frames of Star Citizen at 4K.
It is a Nokia 445Pro, basically a non-widescreen FW900. To use it, I use the adapter that was included with my 980.
VGA and BNC can do it with a CRT.
Can someone drop the hard science on this. I am quite interested. Links and other sources not just saying it is better.
IIRC you could (in theory) carry an image signal with an "infinite resolution" over VGA, I'll have to look it up again but "infinite bandwidth" is not correct, again iirc.

VGA is essentially limited to the bandwidth of the DAC on the graphics card from what I understand.
