DLSS 4.5 Dynamic Multi Frame Generation acts like an 'automatic transmission' for RTX 50 series cards, dynamically adjusting frame rates to balance refresh rate, image quality, and responsiveness.
Samsung just announced that 120 games will be playable via its Odyssey 3D Hub platform by the end of the year. This is the platform that provides content for glasses-free 3D monitors like recent Odyssey displays. The company made this claim at, while also noting that the platform currently offers around 60 playable titles.
Traits I look for in a large TV include good brightness and contrast, advanced local dimming (read: good backlighting) to reduce light bleed from bright objects on dark backgrounds, accuracy to the director's intent, and impressive color saturation, especially for HDR (High Dynamic Range) content.
New OLED gaming monitors from top companies coming out this year should look clearer and crisper. LG Display and Samsung Display, which typically provide the actual panels used in gaming monitors, are finally lining up the colors of their subpixels in vertical RGB stripes - remember when we used to worry about Pentile OLED displays? - which means, among other improvements, the panels should have easier-to-read text.
Is 8K TV finally dead? Maybe not officially, but the technology that never quite caught on certainly seems to be on the way out as another manufacturer has pulled the plug. According to a report from flatpanelshd.com, LG is officially halting production on all 8K TVs. From what I can tell, this leaves Samsung as the only remaining manufacturer -- and its 2026 lineup announcement at CES last month made no mention of 8K.
At 51.5 inches, the UltraSharp U5226KW that Dell announced at CES is the biggest UltraSharp monitor yet. It has a resolution of 6144×2560, for a pixel density of 129 pixels per inch. The IPS Black monitor also has a bevy of ports via a Thunderbolt 4 hub that supports up to 140 W power delivery, an integrated KVM for up to four PCs, and a pop-out box with 27 W USB-C and 10 W USB-A ports.
Dolby late last year announced Dolby Vision 2, an upgraded HDR format. DV2 introduces several quality upgrades and addresses a major complaint. Hisense TVs will be among the first to support the new tech. The next generation of HDR is here. Dolby has unveiled Dolby Vision 2, the successor to Dolby Vision HDR that debuted a little more than a decade ago, and we're starting to see the term make its way through the halls of CES this week.
A curved monitor is really something you need to experience firsthand to fully appreciate its advantages. The Asus 34-inch monitor features a 1,500R curvature designed to mirror the natural curve of human vision and how we perceive our surroundings. When placed at the optimal viewing distance, this curvature delivers a level of immersion that flat monitors simply can't replicate, filling your peripheral with what's happening on screen.
If you like to separate your workflow onto multiple monitors but hate the gap and bezel between screens, Dell's new display was made for you. Announced on Tuesday at CES, the Dell UltraSharp 52 (U5226KW) offers 52 inches of 6K resolution screen real estate that you can divide into up to four virtual monitors, supporting input either from up to four different devices, or one computer that creates that many desktops.
NVIDIA has unveiled the G-Sync Pulsar, which it calls the "latest evolution of [its] pioneering VRR (variable refresh rate) technology," at CES 2026. The new tech promises a gaming experience that's free of stutter with buttery smooth motion, which is made possible by pulsing the display's backlight. G-Sync Pulsar displays have multiple horizontal backlight sections that are pulsed independently from top to bottom, unlike traditional displays whose backlight is always on.
Asus has hit the Consumer Electronics Show show floor with a brand-new set of Extended Reality glasses. Developed in partnership with Xreal, the Asus ROG Xreal R1 packs an impressive amount of technology into a slim frame for your face, allowing you to stream video directly to your eyes via a USB-C connection. Internally, the Asus ROG Xreal R1 features 240Hz micro-OLED 1080p lenses, and it comes with an ROG Control Dock for HDMI and DisplayPort connectivity.
Given Dell's experience in the monitor realm, this could be a dream display for professionals who handle vast data sets such as trading platforms, AutoCAD, 3D rendering software, spreadsheets and more. It sports a 120Hz refresh rate on an IPS Black panel and emits up to 60 percent less blue light when compared to competing monitors. It delivers an impressive 129 ppi (for comparison a 4K 32-inch monitor delivers 138 ppi) and an ambient light sensor helps avoid eye strain during long work sessions.
A significant portion of the annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES) is about TVs, and this year, LG is showing off its manufacturing chops with a new Wallpaper OLED TV that is just 9mm thick. The South Korean company first launched the Wallpaper line in 2017, and is now bringing it back with this model, dubbed OLED evo W6.
Calling the Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 "ultra-wide" barely scratches the surface. This thing is enormous. At 49 inches across, it can dominate an entire desk. It's the kind of monitor that makes dual-screen setups look quaint, delivering a single, seamless canvas that stretches far into your peripheral vision. Right now, it's also far more affordable than usual. The Odyssey OLED G9 normally sells for $1,249, but Amazon has dropped the price to $900, knocking a hefty $349 off the total for a limited time.
