Looks good , wondering what the price is going to be

32" will do me just fine, cant imagine this will be anything less than outrageously expensive though.

I cannot find details about panel. If it's not VA, it's an easy pass. OLED/SVA or nothing. I ain't coming back to TN/IPS even if it has HDMI 3.0 and 8K 240HZ.

Want it! Despite the fact i can´t afford it...
kokotas
OLED=burnins
VA=motion blur
IPS=IPS glow
TN=well TN
You'll have to pick your poison I guess 😀 The price should be around 2k most likely.

So is this mostly in anticipation of the new consoles before this becomes standard place and trickles down to new/cheaper TVs in the future? Are the new consoles expected to push 4K 120Hz TVs into the mainstream? If so, that would be great way to lower the price on adaptive sync display technology vs. the options we have now. I just can't see many parents buying their kids a brand new TV/monitor with their brand new console just for 4K video games at 120hz. I must be missing something important here...

I find it pointless when this year's TV's are coming with HDMI 2.1, 120 hz and 4k HDR.

This IS a TV.
ASUS and their practice of slapping "Gaming" on every product that exists.
What's next ASUS, gaming sunshades ?

I think you are into something...

Gaming sunshades!? Nani?! That's a great idea! Nice! What's better than sun rays refracted in multicolored RGB gamut? Republic of Gamers is no more! Long live the Rays of Gaming made by gamers for the gamers! 😛 😀

Not sure whats so special about HDMI 2.1 on a monitor with 2x DP 1.4. For TVs, sure, HDMI 2.1 is a necessity since they lack DP.

32" IPS
120-140Hz
4K maybe an option for 1440p
G-sync
I think is that sweet spot!
43"? I have enough for maybe a 34 ultra wide after that nah!

Gaming sun glasses already exist 🙂 pretty sure HyperX has among a lot others

Check the Philips 328M1R. Is expected start of the year with 3 HDMI 2.1, DP1.4, 144hz 4K VA with Freesync HDR600, including 2.1 DTS sound system (5W speakers plus sub). Price around €599

dont care what panel, as im interested in a big screen (40 and up) that is flicker free and can do more than just 60hz.
for anyone asking why hdmi/2.1:
guess what you need to support VRR or things like input lag reduction?
guess what you need to run a ps5/XB with those features?
who says your fixed to play 4K res? who says you cant use 120Hz with a lower res?
some ppl are acting like gaming is only relevant on pc or the "features/connections" it supports.
Fediuld
All upcoming consoles use 2.1 for VRR/Freesync 4K60+ HDR so the manufacturers need to cater for the console market.
See the Philips 328M1R which the company delayed 6 months just to get 2.1 certification for the consoles. Same applies to all companies.

Ill take any IPS or VA 21:9, or 32:9 over the best possible 16:9 monitor. 4k is over rated and 16:9 is so 2006.

I wonder what CRT monitors would be like if they were still making them...
I'm guessing they'd look fantastic, but weigh 2500 pounds and heat your entire house through the winter. Oh, and take up half of the living room.
Still, it'd be cool if someone could make use of CRT technology but in some new form that was low power and lightweight and didn't have to be the same depth as the width.
Seriously though, for some time I've wondered why we don't just move beyond the whole scanline thing for making images. With all digital equipment and a modern display panel, they should be able to get rid of "frames" entirely and just update individual pixels as they need to. Then we wouldn't need to deal with things like refresh rates at all.
