LG Display to Mass Produce World's First Gaming OLED Panel With Switchable Refresh Rate and Resolution

Still waiting for idea of affordable OLED monitor without 6516165165Hz refresh rate and XYZ gaming bla bla to pop into someones brain.

Define "affordable". Depending on income this can vary wildly. So what you want is a 60Hz OLED? At what price?
The cheapest desktop monitor OLED is AOC Agon AG276QZD at 680€. It's a 27" 1440p WOLED at 240Hz. I doubt it would be much cheaper at 120Hz or 60Hz unless the resolution is downgraded to 1080p and size to 23".

Yes. Give me 24" 1080P 60Hz OLED for < 300€. I will buy it for color quality and response time of OLED. I'm still on 1080P and playing at 60fps and happy with resolution and frame rate

Even then i doubt it would cost less than 300€. You have to accept that the world is moving to high refresh era (finally IMHO). Even office monitors are not always 60Hz anymore. Gaming monitors much more so where 75Hz is the budget and 144Hz is the low end.

Resolution is a bit more complex tho. 1080p is still fine at 21-23" sizes. 1440p is fine for 27" and i doubt we will move much past 4K at 32"+ sizes due to scaling issues and considering how hard it is to drive that many pixels. Not to mention the physical size since not everyone has space, or wants a TV sized monitor.
 
AORUS model has been selling on newegg. However, there is no DP2.1 video card out so how long are we going to be waiting on that?
True, but, I'd rather have a monitor that can do it and not need to upgrade for that later on. My video card is 3 and a bit years old now and there's a reasonable chance I'll upgrade it in the next gen.

The reason here is it's the same price as every other QD-OLED in my market (except for the Alienware which I don't want because of the fan)

I hear you. I'll be getting this too. I'm currently running a 6950XT which is enough for my 4k60 LG. With AMD going mid-range only, there is a chance they don't bother with DP2.1. Nvidia lagged AMD with HDMI 2.1 support. So there is this non-zero chance that there might not be DP2.1 support with next gen cards. Maybe these monitor makers have reached out to AMD and Nvidia regarding DP2.1 support.

Exactly, fuck all those useless things, give us normal size/resolution/price with +100Hz and thats it
