An interesting observation has been made today, a sly contemporary change in the text of the Nvidia website seems to indicate that NVIDIA has lowered the requirements for first-class G-Sync Ultimate certification. The VESA DisplayHDR 1000 requirement has been changed to “Realistic HDR”.
In the past, NVIDIA applied strict ratings to Ultimate specifications; G-Sync Ultimate requires mandatory features such as VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certification and a G-Sync module. And that means a monitor must offer at least 1000 nights of brightness (peak) performance. Things that NVIDIA tests and then certified, I must mention, where they perform more than 300 tests.
The list of previous specifications required 1000 nights of maximum brightness
The new writing shows that 1000 Nights are switched to “realistic HDR”. And this is a fairly fluid wording; this value can be anything you need to decrypt it. Previously, the HDR 1000 requirement meant that it had to be paired with an expensive G-SYNC module for this G-Sync Ultimate tag, as website monitors very well observe.
What if a manufacturer offers a 400 or 600 night monitor with a GSYNC module? Yes, in this essay, even this could be labeled as G-SYNC ultimate, and you will still pay the certification premium.
