A gargantuan curved gaming monitor takes up a lot of desk space atCooler Master’sComputex 2024show area. The new Cooler Master GP57ZS is built around a 57-inch diagonal display with dual-4K resolution. Boosting immersion, Cooler Master has leveraged a 1000R curvature and punchy visuals driven by VAMini-LED technology, which covers 98% of the DCI-P3 gamut.
For now, the Cooler Master GP57ZS is primarily a tease. The firm says that it is a proof of concept for several supporting technologies, such as a new customheatsink(yes, this monitor needs cooling), a new sound system, and a new design aesthetic.
Sitting in front of a 57-inch monitor with 7,680 x 2,160 pixels and 1000R curvature, it would be difficult not to be immersed. However, the 2304-zone Mini LED backlight for excellent contrast and the wide color gamut on display should crank your immersion levels even higher.Cooler Mastersums up the GP57ZS by claiming the new screen will help you “lose yourself in colorful worlds.”
We don’t have detailed specs available for the Cooler Master GP57ZS, as it is still in development. However, it certainly looks like it could be a good alternative (or even be somehow related) to theSamsung Odyssey Neo G9 Dual-UHDor theAcer Predator Z57gaming monitors. Stay tuned for pricing and availability information.
In addition to the unobtainium of the GP57ZS, Cooler Master has some more mainstream monitors on show at itsComputexshowcase. We noticed two attractive new 27-inch monitors with sweet-spot QHD resolution panels, represented by theCooler Master GP27QPpremium every day (flat) monitor and theCooler Master GM27QPfor work and play (curved).
Whichever of these27-inch monitorsyou prefer, the flat or the curved one, you will benefit from their high PPI display supporting fast refresh rates (up to 240 Hz for the GP27QP and 160 Hz for the GM270P), quick 1 ms response times, built-in stereo speakers, and low-blue-light and flicker-free ergonomics.
The ‘premium’ model, the Cooler Master GP27QP, doesn’t only offer slightly faster max refresh rates, it has HDR1000 (vs HDR400) and superior contrast thanks to Mini LED technology with 1,152 dimming zones. It also benefits from USB Type-C display connectivity (alongside HDMI and DP), which is very convenient for plugging in laptops, smart devices, etc.
