 This video from CES 2017 is brought to you by Squarespace Yeah, we've got them linked in the video description. You know what they do So this is it Monitor monitor evolution has ended because I don't really understand how it gets a whole lot better Than what I have in front of me today. This is the ROG Swift PG 27 UQ and It would be a lot easier for me to come up with a list of crazy amazing features That it doesn't have so 4k resolution 3840 by 2160 HDR and I will get a little bit more into that later G-sync so that means if you're running an Nvidia graphics card, you've got support for variable refresh rate technology and it runs at a 144 Hertz Well, how are they doing that? What the what the crap is going on here? So I so I pulled the plate off the back and And it's running on a single cable So the only thing that I've seen it's got on the spec sheet here. It's got HDMI But come on realistically, this is an HDMI 2.1. They just finalized the spec like yesterday something like that So it's display port 1.4. It's got two inputs and I assumed it would be using two of them But then I thought wait a minute. I just saw the Dell 8k monitor That was running off of you guessed it to display port 1.3 So they've got this all closed in here. See this my friends Asus won't tell me what's here But fortunately, I have two hands. I got two hands. I know how this works Okay. Well, I can't tell exactly what they are But if I had to guess if I had to guess I would say that it's one of the only Graphics cards on the market that has support for anything higher than display port 1.2. So it's probably if I had to guess Quadro P6000 SLI Nobody nobody's giving me any confirmation whatsoever. Okay. I'm not gonna stress about that too much The point is this thing's coming in some time and by that time, hopefully there will be a system that can run it. All right More details though. I said before HDR, but the industry has kind of decided that HDR means anything above SDR when it comes to a consumer grade monitor Asus not good enough for them. This is a gaming display, but they're like, yeah, no, we're gonna do it properly so we've got 384 zones of fully Fully backlit array backlit LCD goodness, which is allowing them to achieve 1000 nit peak brightness meaning that this display with HDR 10 support is not only a gaming display It is also potentially and I don't know much about the color space coverage. What do we got here? Are you guys talking about that? Looks like not a whole lot, but it's quantum dot So I'm assuming we're doing better than Adobe RGB anyway There's nothing that would prevent this thing from being used for content creation What can't it do? Yeah, the answer is pretty much nothing but just in case you don't like the gamer aesthetic Well, hey, they've got the PA 32 you this puppy looks like it's built on a pretty darn similar platform So the same 384 direct zone direct LED backlight 1000 nit peak brightness HDR support all that good stuff, but on this one they are actually calling out 85% of rec 2020 coverage 99.5% of Adobe RGB 95% of DCI P3 and 100% sRGB support so this looks like it could be a candidate for us to move to an HDR workflow Wink wink sometime in the future Assuming that you know they can get it produced sometime in the in the next little bit here So how much is one of these gonna cost you? I don't know lots. Let's say $1,500 maybe more But they're super cool So thanks for checking out this video guys Don't forget to subscribe so you don't miss any of our I was doing the like call out with the thumb and I was doing The subscribe with the mouth don't worry too much about it a huge thought out thought out It's been a long day shout out to Squarespace for allowing us to be here at CES 2017 Squarespace lets you build a beautiful website that looks great on this just as much as it looks great on this You've got your store.
