They offer a wide selection of computer hardware components and peripherals, including motherboards, graphics cards, laptops, monitors, and more. With a reputation for reliability and innovation, Gigabyte products cater to both gaming enthusiasts and professionals, delivering solid performance and functionality.
Earlier today, the company introduced the
AORUS CO49DQ, an innovative 49-inch QD-OLED ultrawide gaming monitor that
promises an exceptional gaming and multitasking experience. This monitor
features a curved screen provided by Samsung with a DQHD resolution of 5120 x
1440 and a curvature of 1800R, designed to offer a more immersive experience.
The display supports a high 144Hz refresh rate, ultra-fast 0.03ms response time
(GtG), and AMD FreeSync Premium Pro making it ideal for fast-paced games.
One of the key highlights of the AORUS
CO49DQ is its “OLED Care” functionality. This feature uses an AI-based
algorithm to protect the OLED screen from burn-in issues, although the
effectiveness of this technology is yet to be confirmed through third-party
tests. In terms of color accuracy and quality, the monitor shines with a 10-bit
color depth, a 1,500,000:1 contrast ratio, and a 99% DCI-P3 color gamut,
certified by VESA DisplayHDR True Black 400. This makes it suitable not only
for gaming but also for professional tasks like video and music editing, where
color precision is critical.
The AORUS CO49DQ also boasts a wide range
of connectivity options, including two HDMI 2.1 ports, a DisplayPort 1.4, a USB
Type-C port with 18W reverse power delivery, and an audio jack. It also
features KVM and hub functions, two USB 3.2 Type-A ports, and comes with two 5W
speakers. Ergonomically, the monitor offers a tilt range from -5° to +20° and
swivel capabilities between -20° and +20°. However, it does not have a pivot or
height adjustment feature. It is compatible with VESA wall mounting with a 100×100
mm pattern and includes a Kensington lock.
The monitor’s dimensions with the stand
are approximately 1194.78 x 558.80 x 261.52 mm, while without the stand, it
measures about 615.11 x 367.35 x 42.22 mm. The built-in power supply is
designed for efficiency, with a maximum power consumption of 72 watts. The
release date and pricing for the new ultrawide gaming monitor have not been
disclosed as of now.
