stepee Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 mmmmmmmmmm edit: too bad nvidia won’t support vrr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Vic20 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Love it all, but I need a GPU with and HDMI 2.1 port to take advantage of so many of those features! Oh, and it needs to have the horse power to make it worth making the jump. Looks like we’ll need to wait for 2020 to seal the deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spork3245 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 XboneX supports vrr and the anti-latency hdmi 2.1 stuff already. Hopefully nVidia suppports vrr through HDMI on their next cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legend Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Well, that's basically the feature set I'm looking for then. Lets see, this year I'm looking to get - a new car - new phone(s) - new pc - new TV. Fuck. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But nobody is going to buy their tv, so we have to just sit and wait for it to play out, watch it fail, and then have them finally do the new tv standard.

atom631 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 great news. hopefully next-gen consoles and GPUs will take full advantage of these features and have the horsepower to make them worthwhile. If the new consoles are coming out in 2020, Id say Q4 2020 would be the best time to grab one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwinIon Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Excellent. Now they need to make one at ~40" for me to use as a monitor for my PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodimus Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Well I bought mine last year. and that was the year befores model. I'm very happy with it. I recomend OLED for sure. Movies look good and so do games. The black levels are amazing. Classic games I play that are 4 by 3 the black bars are so dark the pixels are off and looks like part of the frame.

AbsolutSurgen Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 I'm hoping to get one this year and finally retire my Pioneer Elite Kuro.... I don't have an X, but expecting PS5 in 2020, and I've been waiting to get a new TV, and wanted to make sure it supports VRR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 If 65” is reasonably priced, I will buy one. LG really focused on video game users for this update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a 4K set in my livingroom and a Panny Plasma in the bedroom. If I get an OLED, my current 4K would go in the bedroom replacing the Panny Plasma. Those Pannys are damn near indestructible... it's outlasted TV's I've bought afterwards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elbobo Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 This is what I have been waiting for might wait till next year to pick it up because I will need a HDMI 2.1 compatible GPU and receiver. If you are interested in these TVs LGs usually hit the market around April and drop in price through the year bottoming out around black friday to Christmas time.

XxEvil AshxX Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 If what the OP says is true, then 2020 will actually be the year to buy OLED, once they drop the price on these to make room for the 2020 models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YUPPPP I’m also seeing 75” shown a lot more in store displays so im hoping they start to occupy the price point space that 65” does, bringing those down closer to the much more reasonable 55” price range.

Mr.Vic20 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I’ll take it but LOL at their 65” monitor offering! Here is hoping this means some TVs will be supported. We still need HDMI 2.1 to make that happen though and I don't expect that until late this year with the 21xx refresh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
