Gamers Anticipate a Refresh Rate North of 480Hz
 
Refresh rate is debatably the most important feature on a gaming monitor, and while 360Hz – 390Hz is the current standard – the climb isn’t over. Sweclockers reports that both LG and AU Optronics will put 480Hz displays into production by the end of 2022, aiming for a 2023 release. Zisworks has already tested 480Hz panels at a meagre 540p resolution back in 2017. The new consumer variants should follow in the footsteps of the Asus ROG Swift PG25QN, however, bumping things up to and industry-standard 1080p resolution on a 24.5-inch screen. Details are a little thin beyond this, only hinting that specification might also include support for DisplayHDR 400 and stick to the default sRGB color space.
 
LG is also reportedly working on a new feature that should produce truer blacks, once again sidestepping the OLED technology. Although OLED gaming monitors, are expensive, they are typically the best performing monitors. Gaming monitors tend to average from 24 to 32 inches – which is roughly the size LG is targeting with its new technology.  It does beg the question of how high is too high with diminishing returns at higher refresh rates. As the new standard comes in, 360Hz will be used on.
