Display screen manufacturer BOE has announced the world’s fastest gaming monitor, one that is capable of reaching a refresh rate of 500Hz.
As for how the gaming monitor manages to deliver such a high refresh rate, BOE integrated a high-mobility oxide backplane into the screen, as reported by Tom’s Hardware. The company is a leader in oxide semiconductor display technology, which explains how it was able to build the record-breaking 500Hz monitor. Previously, the fastest gaming monitor ever made was the Asus ROG Swift 360Hz PG259QNR.
Although BOE’s new gaming monitor is certainly impressive, and comfortably exceeds refresh rates from the fastest gaming monitors in today’s market, it’s important to note that it still features a Full HD screen, which is only able to offer a 1080p resolution. As VideoCardz points out, Full HD gaming monitors are no longer the norm due to the emergence and increasing popularity of 1440p and 4K panels. However, 1080p monitors that are outfitted with high refresh rates are still utilized in competitive esports tournaments.
