WEBVTT 00:00:02.159 --> 00:00:10.000 Dell's groundbreaking 8K monitor the last time 00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:16.119 I checked out one of these was on a crowded show floor and to say that that 00:00:12.759 --> 00:00:17.199 one was a little pre-production would be 00:00:16.119 --> 00:00:26.560 an understatement but Dell has been hard at 00:00:20.640 --> 00:00:28.800 work for 4 months on their apptly named 00:00:26.560 --> 00:00:35.320 up3218k and the the finished product is now in 00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:38.800 our hands for evaluation as a Content 00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:41.160 creation device a Content consumption 00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:47.800 device and last but not least we uh might fire 00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:47.800 up some games on 00:00:55.840 --> 00:01:01.440 it Synergy is the software that lets you 00:00:58.879 --> 00:01:05.640 share your mouse and keyboard between multiple computers check it out now at 00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:09.560 the link in the video description wait for 00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:28.880 it I went too early here we go it's 00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:32.159 alive 8K resolution at 60 HZ everything 00:01:28.880 --> 00:01:34.439 about the ultra shark up 321 is either 00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:41.200 state-of-the-art like the aluminum build quality hyper thin infinityedge TM bezel 00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:45.439 and glass front or it makes state-ofthe-art 00:01:42.360 --> 00:01:48.640 look like an antique the specs of this 00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:51.240 thing are absolutely unreal it comes 00:01:48.640 --> 00:01:57.920 tuned out of the box with an individual calibration report that promises Delta e 00:01:53.799 --> 00:02:03.479 values of less than two and full 00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:06.560 yes 100% coverage of the Adobe RGB color 00:02:03.479 --> 00:02:09.599 space it's got 400 nit Peak brightness 00:02:06.560 --> 00:02:11.599 which is Rock Solid for a non-HDR panel 00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:18.000 although a little more on that later and a static contrast ratio of 1,300 to1 00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:25.239 which is outstanding for an IPS panel type but that ignores the most obvious 00:02:21.760 --> 00:02:31.480 calling card of this utterly unique 00:02:25.239 --> 00:02:35.200 product the 8K resolution 10bit 60 HZ 00:02:31.480 --> 00:02:37.120 panel I mean this is so far out ahead of 00:02:35.200 --> 00:02:44.200 the curve that we don't even have a display interface that can handle it yet 00:02:40.920 --> 00:02:48.920 like early 4K displays with DisplayPort 00:02:44.200 --> 00:02:52.280 1.1 inputs it needs two connections to 00:02:48.920 --> 00:02:55.239 the computer to run at its maximum 60 HZ 00:02:52.280 --> 00:03:01.800 refresh rate but there's a big difference these are DisplayPort 00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:10.080 1.4 four ports well hold on a minute lonus DP 1.2 can handle 4K 60 HZ no 00:03:05.959 --> 00:03:15.480 problem and 1.4 has about double that 00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:20.120 bandwidth why do we need two of those 00:03:15.480 --> 00:03:24.480 ah because 8K is more than twice as many 00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:28.519 pixels as 5K four times as many as 4K 00:03:24.480 --> 00:03:32.519 and I'll whopping 16 times the pixel 00:03:28.519 --> 00:03:34.040 count of 10 80P we are talking 00:03:32.519 --> 00:03:42.599 33 megapixels 60 times per second and until 00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:45.680 video card makers Implement DSC or 00:03:42.599 --> 00:03:47.879 display stream compression the only way 00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:55.640 to push this many pixels is going to be to add more chords I have some good news 00:03:51.920 --> 00:03:59.079 too though Dell has a lot of experience 00:03:55.640 --> 00:04:00.319 building high-end displays and it really 00:03:59.079 --> 00:04:06.640 shows unlike early dual input 4K monitors 00:04:03.720 --> 00:04:11.360 there's no flakiness where half of the display looks a little different from 00:04:09.040 --> 00:04:17.000 the other half or where one side will refuse to turn on sometimes in fact you 00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:19.919 can even just yank out one of the cables 00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:25.160 and the only effect that you'll see is that the entire display will now be 00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:27.720 running at 30 HZ instead of 60 and from 00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:31.960 what I've seen plugging it back in is an equally seamless transition 00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:36.000 and all of this experience carries over to the physical design as well in spite 00:04:34.320 --> 00:04:42.039 of the panels weight heat and power consumption 00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:47.199 characteristics they managed an internal power supply with passive Cooling and 00:04:45.039 --> 00:04:55.160 all the Creature Comforts that creatives are used to height adjustment tilt 00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:59.280 swivel and even pivot are all built into 00:04:55.160 --> 00:05:02.320 a base that just exudes quality and they 00:04:59.280 --> 00:05:04.560 include a vase amount for you as well 00:05:02.320 --> 00:05:08.520 not only that but while you're typing or moving your mouse around there is next 00:05:06.280 --> 00:05:15.440 to no screen wobble which is really hard to do with a panel this heavy the four 00:05:12.039 --> 00:05:18.039 port built-in USB hub is pretty much a 00:05:15.440 --> 00:05:24.039 bonus at this point though if I was to criticize something I wouldn't mind some 00:05:20.440 --> 00:05:25.720 basic built-in speakers for emergencies 00:05:24.039 --> 00:05:30.080 okay enough about all of that though let's talk about actually using it the 00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:34.520 first thing I wanted to do was fire up an 8K wallpaper which believe it or not 00:05:32.240 --> 00:05:39.919 in spite of all the advertised 8K wallpapers are pretty freaking hard to 00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:43.479 find took me about 20 minutes that would 00:05:39.919 --> 00:05:46.560 be a nice touch D including some like 00:05:43.479 --> 00:05:48.639 dope AF highly detailed desktop 00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:54.880 backgrounds cuz once I got that fired up it looked freaking amaz balls I mean 00:05:51.440 --> 00:05:57.440 seriously face this close to the display 00:05:54.880 --> 00:06:02.039 and you're basically is she naked on that 00:05:58.479 --> 00:06:05.880 balcony no no no she's not but the crazy 00:06:02.039 --> 00:06:08.360 thing is that I can tell in terms of 00:06:05.880 --> 00:06:15.840 configuration The Sweet Spot for scaling seems to be in the sort of 00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:19.160 250% range if you have pretty sharp eyes 00:06:15.840 --> 00:06:21.720 and uh yeah I mean I guess it's really 00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:26.960 easy to get going so let's have a look at some content 00:06:24.039 --> 00:06:32.240 creation High DPI scaling still isn't perfect across the board on Windows 10 00:06:29.160 --> 00:06:36.280 creators update but Adobe Premier Pro 00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:39.639 scales perfectly looks absolutely razor 00:06:36.280 --> 00:06:43.479 sharp and I have no complaints as far as 00:06:39.639 --> 00:06:46.599 this particular Suite goes but this is 00:06:43.479 --> 00:06:50.199 one time when being ahead of the curve 00:06:46.599 --> 00:06:53.960 it has the potential to be a little bit 00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:58.199 rough because uh unless you've also 00:06:53.960 --> 00:07:00.680 dropped you know 7 plus ,000 on your uh 00:06:58.199 --> 00:07:07.199 you know red rocket X accelerator card and a high-end GPU if you're working 00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:10.120 with Native 8K content there is pretty 00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:15.199 much no way that I can see that you're going to be able to play back this kind 00:07:12.039 --> 00:07:18.120 of footage in real time anyway losing 00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:24.680 some of the benefit if you're playing it back at a quarter or 1/8 resolution of 00:07:21.400 --> 00:07:26.680 investing in an 8K display but of course 00:07:24.680 --> 00:07:30.080 that's only true if you're talking about the footage before you've exported it so 00:07:28.960 --> 00:07:36.479 let's go ahead and Export the footage and just watch it 00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:45.840 back okay so now we're talking this cool as a 00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:48.440 cucumber chunk of 8K footage of our DIY 00:07:45.840 --> 00:07:56.240 desk PC project which was shot on the Red Epic W with the helium sensor that 00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:58.560 burkel set to music looks fantastic on 00:07:56.240 --> 00:08:05.520 this display the 8K viewing experience is unlike anything else in that you can 00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:08.479 sit as close as you want to the Monitor 00:08:05.520 --> 00:08:13.520 and you still can't perceive any drawback other than that maybe it 00:08:10.919 --> 00:08:19.240 captured too many little details like specks of dust that you wouldn't have 00:08:15.479 --> 00:08:23.319 necessarily wanted to show with that 00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:26.199 said on the subject of drawbacks um all 00:08:23.319 --> 00:08:34.440 of this is if you can find any 8K content we used our own for reasons 00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:37.800 Beyond convenience there just isn't much 00:08:34.440 --> 00:08:39.599 but how about 8K gaming I don't know 00:08:37.800 --> 00:08:45.600 about you guys but for me one of the greatest things about PC gaming is that 00:08:42.959 --> 00:08:52.880 getting a better video card and uh higher resolution new monitor is a great 00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:55.519 way to breathe life into Old titles 00:08:52.880 --> 00:09:01.320 giving them a visual Fidelity that not even the developer would have been able 00:08:57.760 --> 00:09:04.519 to experience as at the time of creating 00:09:01.320 --> 00:09:07.720 them unfortunately in this 00:09:04.519 --> 00:09:12.200 case there were some drawbacks to go 00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:14.279 along with the phenomenal image quality 00:09:12.200 --> 00:09:21.399 I actually don't blame Dell for any of this the input leg and pixel response 00:09:17.120 --> 00:09:23.760 times of their AK display are about as 00:09:21.399 --> 00:09:31.399 good and feel about as good as you'd expect but even with top-of-the-line GTX 00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:36.000 1080ti graphics cards in SLI with liquid 00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:40.200 cooling to boot either the driver or the 00:09:36.000 --> 00:09:46.240 game engine whoa that was fun seems to 00:09:40.200 --> 00:09:48.880 just choke on something all the time and 00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:55.839 crash as often as not and this is even true for relatively lightweight titles 00:09:51.399 --> 00:10:00.560 like Team Fortress 2 so is there a 00:09:55.839 --> 00:10:04.839 customer for this thing at 5,000 00:10:00.560 --> 00:10:07.920 us well high-end users used to spend 00:10:04.839 --> 00:10:11.120 that kind of money on larger displays 00:10:07.920 --> 00:10:14.440 and higher resolution to increase their 00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:17.760 working space for program layouts and 00:10:14.440 --> 00:10:20.279 their canvas size for their projects 00:10:17.760 --> 00:10:27.360 that is where legendary displays like dellz own 3007 wfp got their popularity 00:10:25.279 --> 00:10:33.320 going from a 1280 by 1024 17in LCD which would have been 00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:37.959 pretty typical at the time to one of those beasts was like moving from the 00:10:35.920 --> 00:10:43.639 closet under the stairs on privet drive to Buckingham freaking Palace but 00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:52.079 nowadays you can get something the same size as this with a usable resolution 00:10:47.560 --> 00:10:54.399 for literally an order of magnitude less 00:10:52.079 --> 00:10:59.000 money I mean obviously it costs more than that one for something with color 00:10:56.760 --> 00:11:05.000 accuracy approaching this guy but we're still still paying a big premium for a 00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:07.480 couple of things number one is sharpness 00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:13.959 though to Dell's credit that is a sharpness that absolutely crushes even 00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:20.399 outstanding displays like LG's ultra fine 5K on paper though in my honest 00:11:17.639 --> 00:11:27.000 opinion in person the difference is not as noticeable as you might hope and 00:11:23.320 --> 00:11:30.880 number two for being the first one on 00:11:27.000 --> 00:11:34.200 the block with an eight K 00:11:30.880 --> 00:11:37.399 display so then especially with that 00:11:34.200 --> 00:11:41.639 last point in mind is there a customer 00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:45.320 for this product well you bet there is 00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:48.680 because when it comes to pcmr bragging 00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:54.040 rights there is no limit as far as I can 00:11:48.680 --> 00:11:57.240 tell and this is the
