Samsung to release C27F591FDU Curved VA monitor

Samsung to release C27F591FDU Curved VA monitor

Curved is a thing for Samsung, it does work well with a moniutor though. The C27F591FDU is actually highly curved at 1800R. This 27” panel has Multi-Domain Vertical Alignment at 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) resolution and 3000:1 static contrast and 250 cd/m² brightness.

It has a 60Hz refresh rate and Adaptive-Sync / AMD FreeSync. The panel has an advertised 4 ms (G/G) response time. The rear of the monitor is glossy and white but does not have a VESA mount. It has DP 1.2, HDMI 1.4a (with Adaptive-Sync), a 3.5mm headphone jack and 2 x 5W speakers.

A flicker-free backlight is used, with a specified 81% NTSC (119.3% sRGB) colour gamut coverage. Samsung states in one of their more recent press releases that ‘active color crystal technology’ is used, so possibly a Quantum Dot based backlight.

The FreeSync features of the monitor (including FreeSync) can be harnessed over HDMI. AMD’s FreeSync information page notes that FreeSync is available via DP (but not HDMI) on this model, which is incorrect. At any rate, a FreeSync range of 48 – 72Hz is specified which is achieved on the monitor with the ‘Ultimate Engine’ option selected. Power consumption is rated at 54 kWh per year (albeit that's a rather loose number as it depends on actual usage right?). The monitor is now available in the US for under $350, with availability in the UK expected in June.

Running 2560x1440 requires a lot more GPU power, and even now you need a fairly decent card to run at that resolution with game features turned right up. There is ABSOLUTELY NO POINT running 2560x1440 if you can't max out all in-game settings. Therefore, anything above 1920x1080 is still enthusiast with enthusiast spec requriements and PRICE. This monitor is a great choice as it is more budget friendly for the monitor itself, and better for the typical computer user.

Sure, 2560x1440 woudl be better, but because of the price of the monitor, and the required hardware to get the full benefits of it, going this route wouldn't really be sensible from a business point of view. This is especially considering the competition in that market and the size of that market.

This monitor is therefore ideal for the upper-mainstream user, the curved panel giving immersiveness and the nice VA picture, and people can actually make use of it from a performance point of view. Sure, some people go 2560x1440 or higher, but the very instant you start having game performance issues due to the resolution, or having to lower in game settings, the whole point of the higher resolution is defeated.

Umm no, just because you don't have a GPU to push games at 2560x1440 doesn't mean you can't run your desktop and all other apps at 2560x1440.

It also doesn't mean you can't run at a lower resolution besides 2560x1440 for your games since most monitors support multiple resolutions and maybe get a better card down road and not have a monitor that is OBSOLETE out of gate already stuck at 1920x1080.

I disagree, I have a 670 and game @ 1440 and i'll always turn down settings before turning down my resolution, in fact, majority of the time if i'm forced to lower my res it means the game is simply too demanding to play at a decent frame rate at all.
