It seems that G-Sync monitors with support for HDR technology will not hit the market until the third or even the fourth quarter of this year 2018, much later than originally planned.

Difficulties in manufacturing G-Sync monitors with support for HDR technology

G-Sync monitors with support for HDR technology are one of the most anticipated novelties in this year 2018, as they promise a high-level implementation of HDR 10 in combination with the already successful G-Sync technology from Nvidia. In this way, the two technologies merge, to offer a new generation of monitors with the best smoothness in games, as well as spectacular image quality with more vivid and intense colors.

The problem of manufacturing these G-Sync monitors with HDR seems to be related to the installation of this technology on relatively small panels, because to comply with the HDR standard that requires up to 1000 nits of brightness, 384 lighting zones are needed, and sync everything with a variable refresh rate at resolutions up to 4K. This complicated task would be responsible for the fact that these new monitors do not launch on the market until the third or fourth quarter of this year 2018.

The arrival of these monitors with G-Sync and HDR was scheduled for the second quarter of last year 2017, making it more than evident that it has suffered a significant delay, given the difficulties of implementation. Top G-Sync HDR monitors include the 4K Asus ROG Swift PG27UQ at 4K 120Hz and the Asus ROG Swift PG35VQ 34-inch, 3440 × 1440 pixels and 200Hz.
