Sharp Shows 27-inch 8K 120Hz HDR IGZO monitor

Sharp Shows 27-inch 8K 120Hz HDR IGZO monitor

Over at CEATEC (Japanese technology show) Sharp shows something rather special, a 27-inch with an 8K resolution at 120Hz HDR IGZO monitor. It is an incredible achievement PPI wise to get that many pixels on such a small screen.

The IGZO based display offers a pixel density of 326 PPI, next to that it is HDR compatible and offers 1000 nits in brightness. 8K120 with HDR is 7680x4320 at 10 bits per color channel, at 120 times a second you'd need 120 gigabits per second of bandwidth at a minimum (~ 15 GB/sec). As the photo shows to be able to drive such a high bandwidth, the monitor needs eight DP connections. Each DP connection would offer 32 Gb/s (if DP 1.4). 

IGZO is a type of transistor used in a display's TFT backplane, which is what controls the display panel (whether that panel is TN, IPS, or even OLED). It uses Indium-Gallium-Zinc-Oxide as a semiconductor instead of Silicon. IGZO just means some power savings especially on mobile devices with ultra-dense displays. There is no difference in image quality, accuracy, or what have you, between aSi-TFT-driven IPS displays and IGZO-TFT-driven IPS displays. The monitor on display obviously is a prototype to showcase IGZO technology from Sharp.

Wow this monitor is amazing. If they start releasing 8K monitors with this refresh rate and variable refresh rate, I'd skip 4K without hesitation.

I think you can play 1080p or 2160p (4k) in this monitor without a problem from a regular vision distance, it has more than 300 ppi! While keeping native res for Desktop and light games.

I'm throwing money at the screen but nothing's happening! SO. MUCH. WANT.

Mind you, GPU power isn't there yet for 8K. Hell, even the mighty 12GB of a Titan quickly gets overloaded at that resolution in my experience.

Any idea when this will actually become available to us mere mortals?

Until your SLI Titan Super X Dildo Edition graphics cards at $4000 a piece start weeping while struggling to pump out 10 frames a second in the latest un-optimized clown fiesta of a triple A game.

That's assuming nVidia would have 4 Display Ports per card.

From the point of technology - well, ok, Sharp, nice one.

From any other point - totally useless. Please don't even start to say how you need so much pixels on 27inch display. You simply don't (need).
