About this deal

Not run into any issues yet but have noticed a new firmware update is available already but not updated it yet. That's all starting to change, though, as the Gigabyte M28U proves by its superb value and excellent 4K feature set.

As an unseen player, monitor is often being underestimated. The truth is monitors form as a synergistic effect and bring out the best performance of PC components. GIGABYTE gaming monitors offer the ultimate specifications and quality, users can truly enjoy upscale performance without the need for extravagance. Just received my gigabyte m28u - turns out it secretly supports displayPort Alt Mode over USB C Despite what the spec sheet says FreeSync and HDMI 2.1 VRR are supported up to 144Hz (48-144Hz range) for tear-free gameplay. While the monitor is not certified as G-SYNC Compatible by NVIDIA, you can use VRR with compatible GeForce cards without issues. GIGABYTE Gaming monitor features an exclusive stand that's ergonomically designed to offer extensive range of height and tilt adjustments.The TUF Gaming VG28UQL1A 4K gaming monitor is ready for anything with HDMI 2.1 - Edge Up (asus.com) The Gigabyte M28U monitor is based on an IPS panel by Innolux. It boasts 178° wide viewing angles for flawless image quality regardless of the angle you’re looking at the screen, as well as a wide 94% DCI-P3 color gamut. I've done a little testing of it, and there is one catch - it still can't do 4k@120Hz 4:4:4. It does 4k@60Hz 4:4:4, but when I ran it at 120Hz Chroma subsampling was definitely enabled. It still looked great and I would never have noticed without a test image (and even then, the pathological case text was still very much readable, just not totally sharp), but it does mean the only way to avoid chroma subsampling at the full refresh rate is to use DisplayPort (and that requires DSC to achieve the full 144Hz). At some point I would like to try and figure out at what refresh rate precisely the chroma subsampling is enabled, but I've yet to spend time on that.

This also means that if you’re using VRR (variable refresh rate) technology, such as FreeSync, and you’re getting around 60FPS (and therefore 60Hz), some overshoot will be noticeable too. MSI Unveils Optix MPG321UR-QD Esports Monitor with HDMI 2.1 and 144 Hz Refresh Rate - The FPS Review This scaling issue is largely mitigated when gaming, at least. In those terms, the M28U is a superb size for pixel density and detail to shine through without overpowering the desktop, and next to my 32-inch monitor it feels far less imposing. If a little less immersive for it. There was one thing that surprised me though - the spec sheet for this monitor (and online listings) do advertise it as having KVM functionality, and as such it has a USB Type C port. However, its listed signal input support is listed as being 1xDP1.4 with DSC and 2xHDMI2.1 (and a note for anyone buying, there are big asterisks around "HDMI 2.1" - it doesn't actually support 4K@144Hz 4:4:4; while I haven't tested myself, it will apparently have chroma subsampling over the HDMI ports!).The stand of the monitor is sturdy and offers height adjustment up to 130mm, tilt by -5°/20° and 100x100mm VESA mount compatibility.

Had one a few hours now been playing some games like Days Gone / Division 2 / Assetto Corsa / RDR2 to test the screen out and it's really nice and sharp and very responsive, this IPS screen puts my previous VA 144hz monitor to shame in the motion department of course. The M28U offers a rich canvas for gaming not just in picture quality, however, but also in response and refresh rate.While not mandatory for DisplayHDR 400 certification, the M28U also has localized dimming. However, there are only 8 zones that dim parts of the screen that needs to be dark. So, you’ll only see benefits from it when dark and bright objects are far apart.

I was recently made aware that the Gigabyte M28U 4K@144Hz monitor was 1) out now, 2) actually available (at least in Australia) and 3) a little over half the price of its competitors (e.g. the LG GN950), which you can't actually buy anyway because we live in the end times.
