“Now wait for 1,000 Hz content and capable GPUs.”
Forget the content and GPU, you need an input port capable of that.
HDMI 2.1 and Display Port 1.4 cap out at, what? 240?
With DSC DP 1.4 can do 4k 360 but it still ain’t close to 1000
So you just need 3 4090’s with 1 displayport each to the monitor and a whole new version of sli.
… I actually wonder if the graphics cards could multiplex across multiple dp to a single display.
I vaguely remember that being a thing for early commercial 8k projectors, but I don’t know anything about the implementation.
Two ports at once have been used for Samsung’s 5120x1440 240hz monitors. Each port refreshes half of the screen and there are two scanlines going from left to right. Using the calc here you might be able to use two DP2.1 UHBR80 cables with DSC and nonstandard timings to run 4k 1000hz 10bit.
Ez
Isn’t 4k 360hz equivalent to 1080p 1440hz? I wouldn’t expect 1000hz at 4k any time soon but 1080p in competitive FPS is easy
I think so? Honestly not sure how the math works on that one.
Easy, just connect 4 cables!

Now wait for humans who can see the difference
RX 7900 XTX + HL 1
Who needs 1000hz refresh rate? I understand it’s impressive, but 120hz already looks smooth to the human eye.
Competitive (professional) gamers?
Seems there are diminishing returns, but at least some gains are measurable at 360.
In thought that 60Hz was enough for most games, and that for shooters and other real time games 120 or 144 was better. However, it reaches a point where the human eye can’t notice even if it tried.
Honestly, going up in framerate t9o much is just a waste of GPU potency and electricity.
A better way to look at this is frametime.
At 60 FPS/Hz, a single frame is displayed for 16.67ms. At 120 Hz, a single frame is displayed for 8.33ms. At 240 Hz, a single frame is displayed for 4.16ms. A difference of >8ms per frame (60 vs 120) is quite noticeable for many people, and >4ms (120 vs 240) is as well, but the impact is just half as much. So you get diminishing returns pretty quickly.
Now I’m not sure how noticeable 1000 Hz would be to pretty much anyone as I haven’t seen a 1000 Hz display in action yet, but you can definitely make a case for 240 Hz and beyond.
It’s pretty easy to discern refresh rate with the human eye if one tries. Just move your cursor back and forth really quickly. The number of ghost cursors in the trail it leaves behind (which btw only exist in perception by the human eye) is inversely proportional to the refresh rate.
I thought games are to have fun, what’s the point of monetising them?
New Careers for the new (and Current) generation.
Yeah, for me, I’m looking for prettier not fastest after 120 Hz or so
Who needs 4K when 1080 already looks sharp to the human eye.
Humans can’t see more than 24 fps anyways
I think the perceptual limit is around 60 or 80fps, but don’t quote me on that
as a rhythm gamer, I can say you’re full of shit lol
I have 240hz and the difference between 120hz and 240hz is somewhat noticeable, don’t see why I’d need any more than this though
So it’s not really a 4K 1000Hz screen then, if it’s just togglable between being a 4k 240 Hz screen and a 1080p 1000 Hz screen.
From what I understand in the article the prototype TCL panel being demonstrated is actually 4k@1000hz. They mention a few competitors with multiple modes right after which could be where the confusion comes from.
That’s not what the article says?
Oops, I misread, that was a different monitor
I would be happy with a 240hz 4k that doesn’t have a subtle hum when it’s going that hard. It’s hard to test for because shops are too loud to hear it, but in a quiet office it gets very noticeable.
“Create your own penis showing game”
That’s what the tech world has come to recently, especially with monitors and smartphones.
I don’t understand this comment; are they not supposed to improve?
Recently?
Tech has always been about pushing boundaries. And that’s not a bad thing
Screen technologies for a lot of things has gotten to the point where your eyes literally can’t tell the difference, but sure, dump money into a placebo.
I agree that 1000hz is ridiculous, I have a 165hz monitor and can’t tell the difference past 120 or so. But that’s not really the point…this will never be a mainstream product but the technology may lead to useful advancements in the future
That is the point, most people don’t do research and see “ahh a bigger number, it must be better!”. 1Khz refresh rate may be a niche thing now but in two years every company will be pushing something similar.
Let “bigger is better” people waste their money like they already do on other products. It makes things cheaper for the rest of us while opening up new avenues for display technology in the future.
After having a TCL smart TV that constantly smells like burning plastic, even a year after using it, I’m not sure I would want another of their product in my home.
Mine burnt out half the led strips in 3 years. Will never buy again. Idc how affordable they are. I miss when appliances and electronics were built to last, not break after a few years.
Why only 4K? We have 8K monitors now.
Performance Mode > Quality Mode ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
