The liquid crystal panel makes use of the Super Speed IPS system and has 6-axis color management, which allows for an accurate color gamut display to be achieved. Furthermore, it complies with the VESA Display HDR 400 standard, allowing you to view images that are natural and realistic in appearance.

Additionally, it is equipped with display synchronization technology "Adaptive-Sync," "KVM," which allows two PCs to share a keyboard, mouse, and monitor, and an HDMI 2.1 input connector, which can output 4K at 120Hz on the latest gaming consoles. The key features are as follows: brightness 350 cd/m2, contrast ratio 1,000:1, horizontal/vertical viewing angle 178°, color gamut DCI-P3 90 percent / sRGB 123 percent, display color 10bit (8bit + FRC), and display color 10bit (8bit + FRC). DisplayPort1.4 x 1, a headphone jack x1, USB3.0x3, USB Type-C, a 3W speaker, and so on are some of the interfaces on the device. The external measurements are 715.3 mm in width, 244.3 mm in depth, and 585.3 mm in height, with a weight of 10.35 kg.

Pity about the fake 10-bit support (8bit+FlickerRC) or else this would have been the perfect all around consumer/professional monitor.

So the FRC to effectively get 10 bit colour is what causes noticeable flickering in LCDs which don't use PWM? I heard that before but never read anything that confirmed it.

And yeah, HDR400 is pretty worthless considering it can't really display HDR content.

Something is wrong with this announcement, doubt that Gigabyte will use the exact same name for a WHQD model.

G32QC and G32QC A where released some time ago and are both QHD : 2560x1440.

G32QC - 2020 - 9‎4% DCI-P3 / 124% sRGB - 75W(Max)
G32QC A - 2021 - 9‎3% DCI-P3 / 121% sRGB - 78W(Max)

Also old news, but I guess better with some old news than no news

Do these monitors burst into flames though?

I bought a G32QC some time ago, had to RMA it after a month since it wouldn't turn on, power supply was fine so something was up with the monitors power board.
Didn't run into any issues with the replacement G32QC.

2021 and monitors still suck at hdr and what not. 1440p is still the sweet spot if you ask me.

Huge difference between the G32QC's HDR 400 and Samsung's C32G75T's HDR 600, actually enjoying playing with Windows 11 HDR / Auto HDR on the latter.
Didn't notice a huge difference between Phillips Momentum's HDR 1000 and the G32QC's HDR 400, probably because it doesn't stay that bright for more than some seconds, makes one wonder how good VESA's certification requirements are.
But you are right, it's still not the same as what a propper HDR10 TV can do.
