NVIDIA released G-SYNC Ultimate to create a category of monitors high performance with the latest in the market together with its G-SYNC hardware synchronization technology. Among the characteristics that certified monitors had to meet, was DCI-P3 color coverage and the best available HDR, the one that could achieve 1000 cd / m² as in the case of the Acer Predator X 35 that we analyze.

G-SYNC Ultimate no longer means that the monitor supports HDR 1000 high quality

However, it seems that G-SYNC Ultimate has downgraded, and the company has updated the minimum characteristics, going from BEST HDR; to “LifeLike HDR”, a rather ambiguous name that has led to NVIDIA certifying G-SYNC Ultimate monitors with support for the most basic HDR, DisplayHDR 400.

In fact, models like the ACER X 19 S now appear certified as G-SYNC Ultimate with only compatibility HDR Display 400.
