NVIDIA G-SYNC HDR tech offers a range of luminance that's closer to what the human eye can experience. Brightness peaks at 1000 cd/m2, and the LED backlighting is dynamically controlled across 384 zones.
Connectivity options for the 27-nch monitor include DisplayPort v1.4, HDMI 2.0, three USB 3.0 ports, and an earphone port. The display will land in North America starting in late June with an MSRP of $1999.99.
