144hz 2560x1440 27" IPS like panels on the way.

Surely of most interest is a new 27" panel (M270DAN02.3) currently in development which will be based on AUO's AHVA panel technology, equivalent to LG.Display's IPS and with very similar performance characteristics. This is a 27" panel with a 2560 x 1440 resolution, 1000:1 contrast ratio, 350 cd/m2 brightness, sRGB gamut and 178/178 viewing angles. Nothing special you might think - wrong! This will be the first IPS-type panel to natively support 144Hz refresh rate, something buyers have been crying out for for a long time! 144Hz AHVA and 2560 x 1440 resolution, we can't wait

Already a post on it.

Hopefully they will have extreme lag reduction circuitry like an EIZO IPS i heard about does. It would probably be good enough for me to replace my current monitor with if it had no more than 2.5ms signal lag, if it was clear panel, if its cycling frequency was always better than 10khz, if it covered at least 79% AdobeRGB color space, if it could be calibrated to not have color clipping, and if it didnt have any: sub par caps, sub par copper quality, bad wiring/poor traces, a bunch of tape (instead of screws), or any loss of responsiveness when my drivers are set to "perform scaling on: GPU" (vs "perform scaling on: Display")
My BenQ GW2760HS has a lot of ghosting, has a lot of gamma issues, it doesnt have display port, it isnt a clear panel, and it doesnt have enough bandwidth which is even worse than it sounds given the fact that it is normally 27in 1920x1080 and I have to use 1600x900 to get 75hz.

Sounds like the holy grail i've been dying for.

But it'll be a first of it's kind, there's no way this delivers on my hopes and dreams.

TBH it doesn't sound much better than the overclockable IPS displays.

I hope it supports a low persistence mode. 144hz is nice. strobing is way better.

2560x1440? Would be nicer if it was 4K. 2560x1440 just doesn't have enough pixels to warrant replacing dual 1920x1080p monitors. I suppose I could run dual 2560 monitors, but it'd be nice to have a single 4K screen.

Sounds good, looking for a 24 i think though. I definitely don't want to have to power 4k, nor do I need the density at 24 or 27. Something higher than 19x12 would certainly be nice though, and I'm not going to buy a monitor until something like these are released which don't have any specific obvious shortfalls (TN color, IPS speed etc).

Can't wait!

Yay. Make it cheaper than my 60 inch TV and I am sold.

I prefer 2560x1440. 4K is simply to hard on the GPU's for gaming IMHO.

Next gen cards will solve that.

Takes a crapton of bandwidth to do 4K @ 144Hz. I believe DP1.3 without using some type of tiling.

I agree.

Next gen cards will solve that.

I highly doubt that. Yes they will run it, but the moment your turn quality up there goes performance.

I say maybe 2 generations or even 3 to really enjoy 4K and eye candy without breaking the bank.

 

[Zargon]

I was going to say, next-next-next gen will solve it.

I have 2 7950's OC'd that MELT doing >60fps on 1440p with high settings, and current gen isn't much faster so I haven't upgraded
