writes ASUS will showcase new ROG gaming displays this week. The new models will come with HDMI 2.1 connectivity, which enables higher-resolution screens with high refresh rates. At the moment, HDMI 2.1 is exclusively supported by NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 30 series and the AMD Radeon RX 6000 lineup. More details about the new ROG displays are expected later this week.
ASUS teased a new line of Republic of Gamers (ROG) branded gaming monitors that feature HDMI 2.1 connectivity. With 48 Gbps of bandwidth and the latest data-stream compression technologies at hand, HDMI 2.1 enables ASUS to do 4K high refresh-rate monitors, complete with support for 10-bit color, the most feature-rich HDR implementations, G-SYNC, FreeSync Premium, and other variable refresh-rate technologies, and lots more. HDMI 2.1 can herald resolution configurations such as 5K 120 Hz and 8K 60 Hz; we also predict the likes of 4K 175 Hz, or 1440p 360 Hz.
