Windows 10: CES 2020: NVIDIA Announces New G-SYNC Esports Displays at 360Hz

Brink · Jan 6, 2020

Inhuman reactions, outplays, and godlike aim are what keep esports fans at the edge of their seat. At NVIDIA, we’re committed to helping esports athletes and competitive gamers unlock their potential and hit those unbelievable shots. Today, we’re announcing the world's fastest esports display, running at 360Hz, powered by NVIDIA G-SYNC.

Our partners at ASUS have implemented this technology, together with AU Optronics’s panel, in the ASUS ROG Swift 360Hz esports display. This no compromises display offers a 360Hz refresh rate for unparalleled smoothness, lower system latency for faster reaction times, and a 24.5 inch 1080p form factor to keep every pixel of action in your field of view.

n0thing, five-time CS:GO Champion said, “When I switched between 240 and 360, I could immediately tell that there was a difference”, after experiencing the smoothness and clarity of 360Hz gaming for the first time. Adding, “This display is great for gamers who want to maximize their potential.”

First introduced in 2013, NVIDIA G-SYNC is best known for its innovative Variable Refresh Rate technology that eliminates tearing by synchronizing the refresh rate of the display with the GPU’s frame rate. Since then, G-SYNC processors have added new display technologies to accelerate esports panels, including dynamic overdrive to enhance player perception, custom-tuned firmware to improve image quality for better target acquisition, and now 360Hz refresh rates for rapid reaction time.

While esports pros previously accepted frame tearing on their display in order to avoid waiting for the next frame to update, with G-SYNC’s 360Hz and Variable Refresh Rate technologies, frames refresh so fast--in less than 3ms--esports pros can get both tear-free frames and incredibly low latency.

NVIDIA’s focus on delivering industry leading esports products has been guided by deep research in understanding the relationship between PC technology and player competitiveness. Over the last few years, our research team has conducted studies to understand how FPS, Hz, and system latency affect aiming tasks in first person shooters. Based on our research, which was published at SIGGRAPH ASIA in November 2019, we found that higher FPS/HZ and lower system latency makes a significant difference:

This isn’t a GPU performance chart -- this is a raw player skill benefit. In the world of competitive sports, a 4% difference is a game changer. To put this into context, in the 2016 Summer Olympics, 1% determined the difference between silver and gold in both men’s and women’s 100m and 200m dashes.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Rainbow Six: Siege, Overwatch, and Fortnite are just a few of the competitive games that can achieve 360 FPS on GeForce RTX hardware, enabling gamers to take full advantage of the new 360Hz displays, and to benefit from the improvements our research found.

To demonstrate the clarity and enhanced perception of our new 360Hz display technology, we partnered with BlurBusters, a website that’s been helping people get crisper gaming experiences for over a decade.

Head here to see and try the demo

This demo uses images from DOTA 2 to help illustrate the clarity benefits 360Hz provides. As the image scrolls past, the scene, nameplates, and all the action is much much clearer at 360Hz, making it far easier to stay focused on your opponents.

360Hz also helps you get on target faster by reducing system latency and improving target acquisition through increased display clarity. We worked with Yesber from YPRAC to create an aiming task that showcases these benefits. The objective of this aiming task is to find and eliminate as many targets as possible in 45 seconds. The targets appear out of your field of view, so you will be forced to rotate and find them - combining target acquisition with aiming skills.

We know that the benefits are not as easily seen online when watching a video, as was the case with HDR and VRR, which is why we’ve taken our suite of 360Hz demos to CES, enabling tech press and partners from around the world to experience this technology for themselves.

Look for coverage from your favorite channels and websites over the coming week and stay tuned for more information on pricing and availability for the ASUS ROG Swift 360Hz G-SYNC display coming later this year.

CES 2019: NVIDIA announces G-SYNC Compatible monitors

G-SYNC’s display technology has been delivering superior gaming experiences since 2013, and as we begin 2019 we have several exciting G-SYNC announcements to share.

Introducing “G-SYNC Compatible” Displays

In 2013 we released G-SYNC, a revolutionary monitor technology that introduced gamers to smooth variable refresh rate gameplay, with no screen tearing and no V-SYNC input lag. Before G-SYNC, gaming monitors had stagnated, using decades-old tech and the same-old features. But since G-SYNC’s launch, gaming monitors have evolved rapidly, and we’ve helped guide their evolution with end-to-end development and certification testing, and more, ensuring each G-SYNC display delivers the best possible gaming experience out of the box.

The GeForce community loves G-SYNC, and many gamers have asked for a trimmed down, GeForce-compatible Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) experience. However, with a wide variety of VRR ranges and in some cases a narrow VRR operating range the VRR feature may only work when the game framerate is in a narrow, very specific range. Which is often not the case, as game frame rates vary significantly from moment to moment.

In addition, not all monitors go through a formal certification process, display panel quality varies, and there may be other issues that prevent gamers from receiving a noticeably-improved experience.

There are good monitors out there though, and so to bring these monitors to GeForce gamers, and expand the G-SYNC ecosystem, we’re introducing “G-SYNC Compatible”. We will test monitors that deliver a baseline VRR experience on GeForce GTX 10-Series and GeForce RTX 20-Series graphics cards, and activate their VRR features automatically, enabling GeForce gamers to find and buy VRR monitors that will improve their gaming experience.

G-SYNC Compatible testing validates that the monitor does not show blanking, pulsing, flickering, ghosting or other artifacts during VRR gaming. They also validate that the monitor can operate in VRR at any game frame rate by supporting a VRR range of at least 2.4:1 (e.g. 60Hz-144Hz), and offer the gamer a seamless experience by enabling VRR by default.

G-SYNC Compatible monitor support will begin later this month with the launch of our first 2019 Game Ready driver. Already, 12 monitors are G-SYNC Compatible, and we’ll continue to evaluate monitors and update our support list throughout going forward.

For VRR monitors yet to be validated as G-SYNC Compatible, a new NVIDIA Control Panel option will enable owners to try and switch the tech on - it may work, it may work partly, or it may not work at all. To be sure, only purchase a monitor listed as “G-SYNC Compatible” on our site.

For the best gaming experience we recommend NVIDIA G-SYNC and G-SYNC Ultimate monitors: those with G-SYNC processors that have passed over 300 compatibility and quality tests, and feature a full refresh rate range from 1Hz to the display panel’s max refresh rate, plus other advantages like variable overdrive, refresh rate overclocking, ultra low motion blur display modes, and industry-leading HDR with 1000 nits, full matrix backlight and DCI-P3 color.

But if you’re in the market for an entry level VRR experience, the G-SYNC Compatible program gives you a ton of new purchase possibilities, and the knowledge of which monitors will deliver baseline VRR benefits with your GeForce graphics card.

Big-Screen BFGDs Deliver The Ultimate PC HDR Gaming Experience, and Can Be Pre-Ordered Now

G-SYNC HDR monitors are the very best displays for HDR gaming on PC, with 4K panels, 1000 nit peak HDR brightness, 384-zone dynamic backlights, and DCI-P3 color. In other words, the best tech, the best brightness, the best colors, and the best contrast.

In February, G-SYNC HDR’s award-winning tech will also be available in 65 -inch super-sized BFGD G-SYNC HDR monitors, suitable for your living room and luxury gaming den.

The first of these will be from HP, who are launching the OMEN X 65, with a 120Hz refresh rate, 1000 nits of peak HDR luminance, all the other key HDR goodies, and a built-in NVIDIA SHIELD TV.

If you desire the biggest and best G-SYNC HDR PC gaming display, it’s available for pre-order now, with other partners’ pre-orders beginning as we approach the launch of BFGDs later this quarter.

New, Exciting G-SYNC Monitors

Last year we launched critically-acclaimed 27-inch G-SYNC HDR monitors, and later this quarter ASUS will unleash their curved 35-inch 3440x1440 G-SYNC HDR display. Like the 27-inchers, it reaches a brilliantly-bright 1000 nits, has 512 backlight zones, and best-in-class colour and contrast for the best possible HDR gaming experience.

LG has just started shipping their 34-inch 3440X1440 120Hz 34GK950G display, which is the first G-SYNC monitor to feature Nano IPS technology. Per LG, “Nano IPS involves the application of nanometer-sized particles to the screen’s LED to absorb excess light wavelengths. It greatly enhances the intensity and purity of on-screen colors.” This enables the monitor to have a color space 35% wider than RGB (98% DCI-P3), allowing more colors to be shown, and it absorbs unnecessary yellow and orange, for superior red color accuracy.

In addition, Acer will be launching a 27-inch 4K IPS 144Hz monitor, and Lenovo is giving eSports players and gamers who want high refresh rates a 27-inch 2560x1440 240Hz monitor.
Those, plus the many 1920x1080 and 2560x1440 models that are already available, mean there’s a high-quality G-SYNC display for every gamer’s needs. And new monitors are always launching every quarter.

GeForce RTX Laptops Debut, Some With G-SYNC

GeForce RTX graphics cards are the world’s fastest, and now they’re available in laptops, giving gamers the power to play any game anywhere, anytime.

There are more than 35 models in over 100 configurations launching January 29th, some of which will feature G-SYNC. Learn more in our GeForce RTX laptop article, and on the manufacturers’ websites.

Expanding The G-SYNC Ecosystem With Numerous New Displays

Whether you want a 65” gaming den behemoth with all the latest tech, the best HDR PC gaming experience around, a G-SYNC laptop, a high-quality high refresh-rate desktop gaming display, or a baseline variable refresh rate monitor, there’s now a G-SYNC display to cover every need.
