Partially unveiled at the CeBIT 2006, 100 Hz technology is coming for LCDs. The idea is that monitors will no longer display 50 or 60 images per second but 100! Here is the first test of this new technology.
Huge disappointment for some of you: the technology is released first on a TV, the Samsung LE40M73BD. Now, here are a few points to cheer you up: you can connect the monitor to your computer with the HDMI input. You will be able to use this TV as a monitor (even if the resolution – 1366 x 768 pixels might be a bit low), Monitors– dedicated to computers – using the same technology or at least based on the same principle will be released in 2007. 100 Hz technology worked with all three possibilities: TV connected to a computer, to a console, to a DVD player.
There is no need in hiding it, the 100 Hz amazed us. It is by far the best innovation brought to flat monitors in years. Here is the explanation in pictures of the functioning of this technology and most of all the results with movies, cartoons, games etc…
Test of the 1rst LCD at 100 Hz, the end of afterglow |

During an interview with NGOHQ, Raymen Wu of PowerColor indicated that the company was about to release an AGP versions of the X1650 and X1950 Pro. The release of the AGP X1950 Pro is good news since this interface has been neglected for a long time by ATI and that NVIDIA left this interface since the 7800 GS. If the specifications of this X1950 Pro AGP, using ATI's Rialto bridge, are equivalent to the PCI-Express version, this card might boost the performances of numerous outdated computers! |
