ASUS has become the first company to fully adopt the true gaming potential of DisplayPort 1.4, enabling resolutions of 4K at 144Hz with 10-bit colour and HDR enabled thanks to Display Stream Compression (DSC), a standard that has seen pitifully low adoption. Meet ASUS' ROG Swift PG43UQ, a 43.4-inch VA monitor that delivers high refresh rate 4K gaming with no compromises. 

This isn't 4K 144Hz in an "overclocked" monitor mode with chroma sub-sampling or some other gimmick; this is the real deal. Sadly, Nvidia graphics cards do not support DisplayPort 1.4 is Display Stream Compression at this time, leaving 4K at 144Hz as an AMD-only feature at this time. The PG43UQ will support variable refresh rates on both AMD and Nvidia graphics cards though VESA's Adaptive-Sync standard, and the screen is reportedly getting Nvidia G-Sync certified. 

The ROG Swift PG43UQ is due to be released in the first half of 2020, with Overclockers UK already hosting pre-orders for the display. We have no MSRP for the monitor, but Overclockers currently lists a pre-order price of £1,538.95.
 
I suppose if you want this type of performance be prepared to pay a lot of cash. Personally I find the price a little high. On the other hand it is a 43 inch monitor capable of 144 hertz at 4K.

    That looks great
    Might just have to look for that monitor after the Next Generation cards come out

    Not bad for the price🤔

    Those who abuse power, are nothing but scumbags! The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. The abuse of power that seems to create the most unhappiness is when a person uses personal power to get ahead without regards to the welfare of others, people are obsessed with it. You can take a nice person and turn them into a slob, into an insane being, craving power, destroying anything that stands in their way.

    The new Acer has the same DP 1.4 support for it 43" which I already own as a early birthday present. But it needs to have 2 DP 1.4 cables to enable 144mhz fresh rate but you your HDR. It has all the other same features as the Asus does.

    DisplayPort 1.4 does not have nearly enough bandwidth. This panel needs DisplayPort 2.0

    So instead of increasing the PPI, they are increasing the distant in between.    "Details?!", they were asked.  "What's that?!", they responded.

    How is 4K 144Hz AMD only? I understand they have support for the 1.4 DisplayPort but well have you seen AMD cards? We are talking about something you would really need more of a 2080Ti to pull off and well they are not in that ballpark. Maybe they will catch up in a generation or two and really it's great to see a monitor that is finally hitting this point. When we see more wide spread adoption in the industry I feel we will finally see the true era of 4K gaming begin in which no reason to recommend a 1440p monitor exists anymore.

     it seems to be saying that because it uses Display Screen Compression (DSC) instead of chroma sub-sampling, it's "real" or at least more real, even if it's not quite as real as it would be with Displayport 2.0 and no compression at all. It does seem like it's only making progress to the full sized, uncompressed form, but saying "success(ish)" sells more than "getting closer" to the ideal.

    So the rumors are true there will be an AMD card to be released soon beating the 2080ti for a cheapo price of $799.
    Dont like the monitor is AMD only? if i recall correctly the so called Nvidia does the same practice and started this trend🤔

    The proprietary nonsense is not helping anyone, there are published standards

    Agreed, but blame the source that started it all hippie😾.
    Besides the main manufacturer decides the preference and I like the choice😼

    I was going to say , " What card can actually game at that resolution/ speed ?"  
    Answer --> none
     I'm not even sure 2x cards could do it on any games. ..But we know SLi is almost non-existent nor hardly supported....
    ...So whats the point...?
