Facebook page talking about the monitor a little bit.
https://www.facebook.com/NixeusTechnology?fref=nf

What makes this development great is that this means that monitor manufacturers are getting their scalar technology improved enough to cover more of the FreeSync range. FreeSync as far as an AMD graphic's card goes covers a range of 9Hz - 240Hz. Finally we have a monitor that will do 30Hz as sometimes games will dip into the sub 40Hz range during intense scenes if you leave too much eye candy on.

Tell them what you're looking for on their Facebook page. They seem active there. At least the PR guy is. :)
 
god, if AMD 290(x)'s hit the $200 mark I may do my first liquid cool+crossfire build. One of these bad boys will be on my list.
 
been waiting for news of this monitor since it's one of the planned 1080 monitors that I'm aware of and I plan on milking my R9 290 for a while

happy with it going down to 30 VRR

still going to wait on reviews and pricing
 
Happy to see this from a young company. Gives me hope that the bigger guys will have to answer, but hopefully after Nixeus has earned some new customers.

I hope they can adapt their advancements to other sizes. Freesync + 3440x1440 is still my hope...
 
Are Nixeus' products generally well received (especially in regards to quality control)? I've honestly never heard of them before this.

It was their monitor that did the first AMD freesync demo I believe.

They have a rep that showed up on OCN trying to give factual info on Adaptive sync months ago as they were building their versions. Seemed knowledgeable and decent enough a fellow.
 
I believe hes the owner, Peter (Peter Nixeus), not the rep.

Ive seen Peter on OCUK.
 
I wonder how much better of a first impression FreeSync would've left had this been the first monitor to hit the market. If nothing else it'd force PCPer to tone down their rhetoric a few notches.
 
Most importantly this monitor should come with working adaptive hz overdrive. In another thread someone quoted correspondence from a Nixeus guy, stating they had been working with AMD on this.
Finally we can have a product to link to when people bash Freesync for having shit hz ranges or additional ghosting.

I have never heard of Nixeus before them announcing a Freesync monitor at CES, but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

The world does not revolves around pcperspective ... They just were there when Nvidia needed them and asked them after handing them a stick to beat AMD with it.

This is what Nvidia does if you checked the preview at Anandtech of Tegra where performance numbers were not tied to power usage and vice versa. This would show something that performed stupendously well but in reality was not so great.

Everyone knows that technology at the start will need some time to mature. That most solutions for Freesync would be available was just a matter of time rather then something that was not possible.


Nice catch there cageymaru

nVidia will get a hold of it and play test them to find any flaws. Then sites will be "supported" to do reviews that show the flaws and then emphasize them like they are the most important aspect of the screens performance. Like running a 144Hz panel at 40Hz, or less, is where it's at? I mean I've heard the reason people buy these high speed monitors with all of their blur reduction features is so they can disable back light strobing and run the monitors at <40Hz. /Not!

Remember, this isn't the same as [H] running max playable settings on a 60Hz or 120/144Hz monitor. In that situation the refresh rate of the monitor is fixed at it's native rate. With Freesync/Gsync since the monitor matches the refresh rate to the FPS the card is producing. This wanting to play below 40Hz is also wanting a refresh rate that low. WTF is the logic of that? If I'm buying the latest and greatest 144Hz, variable refresh, low motion blur monitor, I'm going to be running it faster than 30-40 FPS/Hz.
 
I've been eagerly waiting for FreeSync monitors with refresh ranges below 40Hz, I'm glad to see someone taking that step. Though I wish it wasn't on a 24" 1080p screen. I'm on a 24" 1920x1200 screen now, I'd hate to take a step back in screen area. If they came out with a 27" 1440p monitor that could FreeSync down to 30Hz, it'd definitely jump to the top of my wishlist.

to be fair, id like under 30hz because i am a single card user and cant always maintain a high enough playable refresh rate with the qulaity settings id like and i refuse to go multi-gpu.

If freeync could get down to 20hz, that would be perfect.
 
Interesting monitor, could go on small rig if the price is right.

One does not read pcper expecting unbiased reviews... LoL... Ryan has nvidia's hotline number and trolls AMD tweets constantly...

Yeah how dare they. Those evil reviewers warning readers about crappy bugged products.

Who cares that we got much better Hawaii frame pacing thanks to websites exposing dx9 crossfire problems. Who cares that people who spent 600$ on freesync display will get them fixed resulting in better experience.

I agree. I wonder how long until we see scalars that can handle the entire 9Hz - 240Hz FreeSync range. When are the monitor manufacturers going to hit a point of diminishing returns I guess is what I meant. Neat that we're already at 30Hz within the first generation of monitors though. ;) That bodes well for next generation of monitors. We know that Asus and Samsung aren't going to let Nixeus beat them.
 
Who cares that it wouldnt matter to PCper if th product was perfect, theyd still troll.

9hz is a bit unreasonable, anything under 20hz is going to be a slide show with or without VRR.

film is 23fps, anything under that would be noticeable.

It applies to differently to which genre you are playing a 1st person shooter multiplayer will never be acceptable around the 20 to 30 fps mark.

It might actually do very well in others.
 
I also think 9 Hz is too much. The amount of time a frame is held at that rate (nearly 7 seconds), VRR isn't going to make any difference. Your game is going to be running at a slideshow, anyway. I think 20 Hz is a more realistic floor.
 
i think you mean 11ms...lol

9hz=9 cycles per second.

1/RR = 1/9 = 11ms...

But i get your point..

Well there's a difference between a crappy monitor, and real issues with Freesync itself. Acknowledging this and not drawing overly generalized conclusions is a starter.

Then there's also the making sure you're not blowing things out of proportion part I always refer to TechReport's review because Scott Wasson did a great job of pointing out the flaws (hell he spent one entire page discussing the ghosting issue alone) while also acknowledging they're not likely to be overly serious in actual use.

If you've followed the saga you should've seen Peter Nixeus' posts on OCN and know there's nothing inherently preventing Freesync from working with overdrive. Clearly both AMD and BenQ dropped the ball on the XL2730Z, AMD for certifying what was clearly a subpar product, and BenQ for failing basic QC. So while fair criticism could be leveraged there, to summarily write off Freesync is a bit hasty and premature to say the least.
 
I'm glad my math failure provided so much entertainment :D. I didn't go back and read my post on this one when I usually do.

Leaving unedited for posterity ;).
 
Those are IPS and at least twice as expensive.

The Nixeus one is a nice inexpensive 1080p TN monitor for those of us without large bank accounts...

I like the fact that the owner is involved and engaged in the community..means he cares what we think and will evolve his products to accommodate us.

Its also an american company, which is a plus as well.
 
If this has the same 8-bit panel as the 24GM77 then that'd be a hard thing to resist. I have that LG monitor now and it's a fantastic TN panel. I haven't really cared for the 6-bit one (and its variants) that is in more general use on the G-Sync/Freesync 24" panels.

I haven't really seen anything other then the spec page says 16.7 million "True Color". Probably waiting for a review as par for the course.
