LG today announced that its 2019 E9 and C9 OLED televisions will support NVIDIA's G-Sync technology to make what darn well will be a killer display for console gaming.
What is G-Sync, you ask? Here's how NVIDIA puts it:
Translate that from a desktop computer experience to your television, and it means this: Games will be as smooth as Al Green on a late summer's day.NVIDIA G-SYNC is groundbreaking new display technology that delivers the smoothest and fastest gaming experience ever. G-SYNC's revolutionary performance is achieved by synchronizing display refresh rates to the GPU in your GeForce GTX-powered PC, eliminating screen tearing and minimizing display stutter and input lag. The result: scenes appear instantly, objects look sharper, and gameplay is super smooth, giving you a stunning visual experience and a serious competitive edge.
In addition, the E9 and C9 TVs will allow games to be played in HDR10 or Dolby Vision at up to 120 frames per second (at full HD resolution), thanks to the low-latency modes of HDMI 2.1.
The new features will be enabled via a software update in the coming weeks, LG says.
So I guess I'm looking at OLEDs again when I was thinking about getting the TCL 8 series.
