Huge news. Massive hit for AMD.

Yup now the appeal of buying a Radeon GPU in order to pair it with a cheaper Freesync monitor is now entirely out the window since you can just do the same with a Geforce card. RIP.
Today is my birthday. Hence, CES week is a giant gift to me each and every year.
Between this news and full HDMI 2.1 coming to LG OLEDs, it's the best birthday ever!
Makes sense for Nvidia, given that FreeSync was just about AMD's last marketing advantage.
Excellent news, now I can buy one these suckers.

Enjoy the benefits of 120hz VRR gaming on PC via display port, then play my xbox one X with VRR and plenty of ports for my ps4 pro too(3x2.0b). All on the same display.
Excellent news and good upgrade path for my current Sony 43X720e.
Welcome to the party now if you can just use universal ray tracing code from DirectX12.
At some point, yeah, but I feel like they are far behind right now (probably at least by a year), so even if they do pull if off, Nvidia would have likely progressed as well.AMD could use that code too, show better performance, and make RTX look like shit. If they can deliver...
My FreeSync monitor is on their supported list
Oh I completely agree its just that they already do support it.AMD could use that code too, show better performance, and make RTX look like shit. If they can deliver...

As I said in the other thread, it looks to be the same panel the Wasabi Mango UHD430 uses and supposedly they're going to enable Freesync for it at some point.Excellent news, now I can buy one these suckers.

Yup. It also has much higher color volume (90% DCI P3 IIRC)No. The Mango uses a cheap IPS panel. This 43" ROG is a 10-bit VA panel with 600 nits. Totally different league.
That explains why it uses Freesync 2. 600nits is low for HDR, correct? I thought 1000 was considered the minimum?Yup. It also has much higher color volume (90% DCI P3 IIRC)
While 600 nits is a bit lower than ideal for HDR, the bigger issue (for HDR) is that this monitor does not have FALD nor is an OLED. Thus, I don't ding it too much for not being ideal for HDR because it isn't really designed to be.That explains why it uses Freesync 2. 600nits is low for HDR, correct?

What is the expected price on this? $2k?
Freesync range on this TV depends on what resolution you are running at.
@ 4k the range is 48-60hz
@ 1080p the range is <20-120hz
I have the q8fn, so very similar tv just the slight step down model.
I think I heard a youtuber (maybe Linus) say that nVidia isn’t supporting adaptive sync via HDMI.According to a reddit user who owns one of the modern samsung hdr tvs, it depends on the resolution.
The hdmi 2.0b 60hz freesync implementation at 4k is only 48Hz - 60Hz so practically useless, but that is a 60hz cap of the resolution in general already.
Hopefully it scales into the higher ranges with hdmi 2.1 so it would be 20hz - 120hz like it does for 1080p. Their tvs are also capable of running 1440p resolutions. If they could do 20 - 120 at 1440p and 4k 120hz that would be a great usage scenario as long as your frame rate graph didn't dip below 20fps which would be pretty bad range to be using anyway imo. 90 or 100FpsHz average should range mostly around 60 - 90 - 120 or my preference of 100 ave => 70 - 100 - 130 (160 spikes even possible). You can cap the frame rate to 118 on the top end.
HDMI 2.0b model
Per linus tech tips on the Q9F . "Ultimate" range 1080p was 48 - 120 fps.
Their flagship is different.. Q9 / Q9Fn ... can't find any Hz range info on rtings or anywhere on that model yet. It'll change on hdmi 2.1 anyway though as 4k 120hz opens up.
Linus' Video confirmed two important things - thanks /u/evaporates for the tldw:
- The confirmation that NVIDIA is not charging anything to monitor manufacturers to get G-Sync Compatible certified.
- HDMI is not currently supported but they do not rule out future support
