A 750Hz gaming monitor has shocked at CES 2025, but I'm starting to get tired of this competition for refresh rates.
The Koorui G7 monitor features a 24-inch screen and a response time of 0.5 ms.
Koorui has unveiled its new G7 monitor at the CES 2025 trade show, marking a milestone in gaming displays with an astonishing refresh rate of 750Hz. This 24.5-inch model features Full HD resolution and stands out with its TN panel, which, despite historically having limitations in terms of color accuracy, this time offers surprising color precision and a response time of 0.5ms.
Although the company had announced the G7 earlier, its appearance at the exhibition has garnered a bit more attention, especially since it was showcased through a video on its official YouTube channel. In addition to the impressive refresh rate, the G7 supports HDR400 and has a coverage of 95% of the DCI-P3 color space, which is notable for a TN panel, typically not known for its color representation capabilities.
The G7 also includes standard features such as a low blue light mode, flicker-free technology, and ergonomic options that allow for height, tilt, and swivel adjustments. For enhanced connectivity, the monitor comes with three HDMI 2.1 ports and one DisplayPort 1.4 connector. Koorui, a company that is part of HKC, a major conglomerate in China, plans to launch the G7 sometime in 2025, initially in Asia and later in the rest of the world.
In the context of the trade show, where monitors with 600Hz refresh rates from other brands like MSI and BenQ have also been presented, the arrival of the G7 with its 750Hz frequency raises an interesting question: to what extent are these high refresh rates useful? This new standard seems excessive, as the difference between 600Hz and 750Hz may not be discernible to most users. However, for professional gamers, who could benefit from a smoother gaming experience, these monitors might offer a slight advantage in performance.
It is important to note that refresh rate is not the only factor determining the quality of a monitor. There are other significant aspects that also influence the visual experience, and it will be interesting to see how the image quality of the G7 compares in real performance, beyond mere technical specifications.
