BOE Technology Unveils World’s Fastest 500Hz PC Monitor

Super fast esports screen.

To meet the growing demand for video promotion and live broadcasting of important and large-scale events, China’s BOE Technology, the world’s number one flat panel display company, has developed a 27-inch PC monitor with Full High Definition (FHD) resolution and an impressive 500Hz display. The main competitor of Samsung Display and LG Display is the first manufacturer to develop such a high refresh rate for a monitor designed for home or industrial use. The latter also has an 8-lane eDP connection, a 1ms response time, and support for an accurate 8-bit color gamut.

The world’s fastest screen, but 4K won’t be on the horizon

BOE Technology claims to have achieved “significant breakthroughs in oxide-based semiconductor technology”and “mass production of copper interconnect structures”that have enabled this stationary monitor to go from prototype to reality. To be more clear, the screen manufacturer indicates that it has overcome several issues such as ease of diffusion and copper oxidation. However, monitors with higher refresh rates have a disadvantage as the refresh rate increases. The 27-inch monitor has a maximum resolution of 1080p, which is not enough for a screen of this size. But even today’s best 360Hz monitor has a lower FHD resolution.
