ps some info on TFTCentral from today as well I saw: https://tftcentral.co.uk/news/cooler-master-gp57zs-unveiled-with-57-super-ultrawide-va-panel-and-2304-zone-mini-led-backlight

has anyone seen confirmation of the refresh rate yet? Samsung's is 240Hz but they have a custom in-house DisplayPort 2.1 scaler and the screen was co-developed with AMD to accomodate the bandwidth needed. Acer released a 120Hz version as they didn't have the same access, and it can then be...

It doesn’t have the new pixel layout as confirmed by TFT central. that’s only applicable on the upcoming 27” 480Hz panel later in the year and the new 32” 4K panel

The Dell AW3225QF like all other current QD-OLED monitors has the semi-glossy coating covered on their comparison. It doesn’t have any additional glass cover or anything Dough do have a version of the 27” 240Hz WOLED panel where they’ve added a custom gorilla glass finish which will be...

Has that pricing and release date been officially confirmed anywhere?

For actual HDR content it will. That sliders adjusts SDR /windows desktop brightness only when running within HDR mode

No there isnt

Yes far more likely to be a limitation with the scaler and supported video interfaces than the panel itself. Samsung had a custom scaler for their screen and co-developed it with AMD to allow early DisplayPort 2.1 adoption with UHBR13.5 speeds. Looks like Acer don’t have that available which...

No, the webpage confirms 120Hz support as per the original press release and CES announcement https://www.acer.com/gb-en/predator/monitors/z57-miniled Also seems likely that the lower spec panel as a smaller number of dimming zones.

Years?! That’s a pretty condescending post. Obviously not everyone can be as smart and clever as you are 🙄 I don’t recall seeing you investigating it, providing any measurements or useful data, or establishing what the root cause of the (actually mixed) user observations were. what “you’ve...

The bit depth output from your graphics card won’t influence the active colour space of the panel or cause over saturation of colours. That’s dictated by the gamut setting on the monitor. It’s fine to leave it in 10 or 12-bit all the time

Well these modes largely exist for certification purposes :)

If you watch that video that graph is capturing the luminance performance in windows desktop (ie non HDR content) in each mode, and follows on from his observations about the multi logo protection causing some dimming in static content and SDR in modes other than the Creator modes. Also...

lol yeah he was the same with the Dell 32”. One minute it was the best thing ever, the next he hated it. Absolute trash

This guy is obsessed with glossy panel coatings. You can tell straight away from his ridiculous thumbnail that he’s just going to moan about the matte coating. Same old boring rant
