1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:07,160
Samsung display demanded that I open this package and take a look at what

2
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:12,320
they and MSI have come up with and you know what I have to say that demanded

3
00:00:09,719 --> 00:00:18,840
what makes them think that they can tell me sponsored the

4
00:00:15,279 --> 00:00:21,960
video I see and it's a pretty exciting

5
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:27,359
one because inside this box is a world's

6
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:30,519
first it's a laptop a laptop with a

7
00:00:27,359 --> 00:00:32,840
240 HZ display but wait

8
00:00:30,519 --> 00:00:32,840
there's

9
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:44,600
more see how it's on but the screen's still black it's OLED and it runs at

10
00:00:40,719 --> 00:00:46,520
1440p resolution making this basically

11
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:52,280
the dream display that I have been asking manufacturers to build for years

12
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:56,120
now all it has to do is live up to my lofty expectations

13
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:08,799
the competitive advantage of a high refresh rate display is pretty well

14
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:13,000
understood at this point there's the intuitive benefit that is if your

15
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:16,240
display updates more frequently obviously your eyes will get a more

16
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:20,439
up-to-date view of what's going on in the game compared to your opponent but

17
00:01:18,119 --> 00:01:25,200
there's a less obvious benefit as well by reducing the delay or the latency

18
00:01:23,079 --> 00:01:29,479
between moving your hand and the changes being reflected on screen you experience

19
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:33,520
an improvement in input control that helps especially with tracking

20
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:37,640
fast-moving targets to be clear this is not enough to turn a novice into a pro

21
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:41,240
but if you want to take advantage of every Competitive Edge you'll find a

22
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:45,200
high refresh rate display beneficial for everything from fast-paced Shooters like

23
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:49,079
Doom maternal to even racing games like Forza we could cite our own findings for

24
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:52,520
this but we don't have to because we're not the only ones to explore it in an

25
00:01:50,719 --> 00:01:57,119
experiment from hanyang University published in 2019 12 participants in

26
00:01:55,079 --> 00:02:01,799
their 20s and 30s were selected to play aim hero and in a narrow play field with

27
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:07,079
a refresh rate of 144 Herz participants were found to be firing just over 3%

28
00:02:04,079 --> 00:02:09,560
faster with 3% more accuracy than that

29
00:02:07,079 --> 00:02:13,720
same monitor set to 60 HZ when the play field was widened the results are even

30
00:02:11,879 --> 00:02:20,319
more dramatic with participants playing on 144 HZ firing 4.5% faster with nearly

31
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:26,120
133% higher accuracy compared to their 60 HZ scores but High refresh rate alone

32
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:31,440
is not enough take this display for example it was cobbled together using a

33
00:02:28,319 --> 00:02:34,720
scaler from zys works and a generic 4K

34
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:38,599
LCD laptop display way back in 2017 we

35
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:40,680
had this thing going as high as 480 HZ I

36
00:02:38,599 --> 00:02:46,400
mean that sounds like a pretty responsive gaming experience right but

37
00:02:43,599 --> 00:02:49,920
the pixels themselves were so slow that they wouldn't even be finished

38
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:54,560
transitioning to their new state when the next input signal came in turning

39
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:58,599
everything into a blurry mess as soon as you started panning the camera around

40
00:02:56,519 --> 00:03:02,920
and while modern gaming LCDs have come a long way to over come this effect they

41
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:07,360
still rely on tricks like pixel overdrive and backlight strobing Each of

42
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:12,799
which comes with their own drawbacks like visual anomalies and reduced

43
00:03:09,519 --> 00:03:16,000
brightness but oleds like this one have

44
00:03:12,799 --> 00:03:17,879
naturally much faster response times

45
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:23,480
Samsung rates this particular panel at roughly 10 times the speed of its LCD

46
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:25,640
counterparts that means that aside from

47
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:32,799
The Buttery smooth animations that we can expect with a 3070 TI driving it at

48
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:34,560
up to 2004 Herz the image clarity as

49
00:03:32,799 --> 00:03:39,720
fast moving objects are going across the screen is on par or better than the best

50
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:44,680
desktop gaming displays even compared to the best CRT displays OLED offers

51
00:03:42,319 --> 00:03:49,360
Superior Clarity making them a near enough alternative for all but the

52
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:51,840
fussiest of retro Gamers we did a full

53
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:56,280
video recently comparing OLED and CRT that actually has an extra detailed look

54
00:03:53,400 --> 00:04:03,840
at David setup over on flp plane.com if you're into that man that Clarity though

55
00:04:00,159 --> 00:04:05,480
oh it's so sharp who what the crap is

56
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:12,040
this guy f ah there we go what what the oleds

57
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:16,079
are also well known for their ability to turn off individual pixels I've been a

58
00:04:14,439 --> 00:04:20,479
cheerleader for this technology since the first time I laid eyes on it back in

59
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:25,479
2013 and it's because the high contrast that's enabled by perfect black levels

60
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:29,840
does as much for the perceived resolution as increasing the actual

61
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:35,360
pixel count man does that ever create an immersive atmosphere for darker games

62
00:04:32,199 --> 00:04:37,240
like stray doesn't it oh no kitty I

63
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:42,320
haven't actually played this yet but it looks great on this on that subject it

64
00:04:39,639 --> 00:04:47,720
feels like for years we were stuck with either 1080P or 4K as our options for

65
00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:54,000
laptop panels and it was so frustrating to me because at honestly anywhere from

66
00:04:50,639 --> 00:04:58,639
13 to 17 in the ideal resolution is

67
00:04:54,000 --> 00:05:01,440
actually 2560 x440 or 2560 x600 you get

68
00:04:58,639 --> 00:05:06,440
rid of the blockiness of 1080p but without putting the additional strain on

69
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:11,280
your GPU that comes with 4K at least if you want to run at Native resolution and

70
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:14,800
someone namely Samsung display finally

71
00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:17,800
listened so not only do we get 240 HZ

72
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:20,120
OLED but it runs at 1440p meaning that

73
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:25,560
the 370 TI in this machine will be able to drive modern games to look their best

74
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:29,319
and the core i7 12800 HK in here is actually a really important key to this

75
00:05:27,639 --> 00:05:36,160
as well because when you're really trying to push upwards of 100 120 frames

76
00:05:33,639 --> 00:05:40,280
per second CPU performance limitations that you otherwise wouldn't notice start

77
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:46,880
to rear their ugly heads man does that look sharp or what like can you make out

78
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:49,919
a pixel with your eye Brandon no what

79
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:52,000
just happened like I said it's not going

80
00:05:49,919 --> 00:05:56,560
to turn you into a pro all of a sudden yep I have no idea what happened there

81
00:05:54,120 --> 00:06:00,440
but apparently I won so maybe I lied maybe it does turn you into a Pro Gamer

82
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:03,960
overnight it doesn't but a couple of fun side effects of OLED are that if you're

83
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:07,400
playing a game like stray for example that takes place mostly in the dark your

84
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:12,360
overall system power consumption will actually go down a small amount and

85
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:16,880
since OLED displays don't require a backlight Samsung helpfully points out

86
00:06:14,840 --> 00:06:22,960
that the amount of blue light that they emit in the 415 to 455 NM wavelength

87
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:27,240
range is actually greatly lessened here take a look at this this shiny little

88
00:06:24,919 --> 00:06:32,479
disc right here is a band pass filter that only allows light through in the

89
00:06:29,639 --> 00:06:36,800
436 NM wavelength when we hold it up to a camera and look at an LCD display you

90
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:42,440
can see how much blue light is coming through but when we use the band pass

91
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:44,880
filter on our OLED display you can

92
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:49,000
hardly tell that it's on at all neat right by using dark mode in applications

93
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:53,560
that support it OLED can reduce power consumption and reduce eye strain caused

94
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:57,280
by Blue Light anyway the ability to control pixels individually comes with a

95
00:06:55,360 --> 00:07:03,479
plethora of other benefits with a brightness floor of only. 05 nits there

96
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:06,840
is a vast expanse of potential colors that can be displayed that normally

97
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:10,879
wouldn't be possible and with a great number of colors comes a greater

98
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:15,039
perceived contrast this is a phenomenon we've talked about before and it's

99
00:07:12,479 --> 00:07:19,160
called the hel Holts K rash effect where colors like yellow and green appear

100
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:24,479
darker than other colors like red and magenta you see our eyes treat

101
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:29,759
saturation and Hue as though they're the same thing as brightness silly eyes

102
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:35,560
that's not how light works eyes more like lies am I

103
00:07:33,199 --> 00:07:39,199
right well this effect becomes increasingly pronounced when these

104
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:43,319
colors are on a background that shares a similar level of lightness like this

105
00:07:41,599 --> 00:07:48,039
gray that you're looking at here using a backlight causes blacks to increase in

106
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:53,000
lightness changing them to more of a shade of gray this reduces contrast

107
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:58,520
causing all colors but especially yellow and green to appear dimmer by comparison

108
00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:03,560
this defect in our eyeballs or more realistically in our brain's perception

109
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:08,759
is being taken advantage of by this laptop it can actually appear brighter

110
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:14,159
without needing to be brighter and dimmer screen equal more battery life

111
00:08:11,639 --> 00:08:20,000
battery life in laptop good good like colorful banana from LTT Store.com and

112
00:08:17,159 --> 00:08:25,039
the obvious other benefit of more accurate more Rich color is in Creative

113
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:29,840
applications like look at this here is the upcoming Channel Super Fun where

114
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:34,440
Dennis attempts to hide in my house again doing a lot of damage to my house

115
00:08:32,919 --> 00:08:38,839
like look at this what is logistics dragging up my driveway here's a hint

116
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:44,240
it's not a Valencia chair it's Dennis and Colton whatever its capabilities are

117
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:48,080
MSI is marketing the Raider g67 HX as more of a gaming machine than a Creator

118
00:08:46,279 --> 00:08:52,920
machine so why don't we take a look at it over on the left we've got usba USBC

119
00:08:50,839 --> 00:08:58,320
as well as a headphone microphone combo Jack tons of cooling more cooling at the

120
00:08:56,519 --> 00:09:03,040
back along with 2 and 1/2 gig Ethernet Thunderbolt HDMI and Power in and over

121
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:07,640
on the right we've got an SD card reader and two more USB type A ports and

122
00:09:05,079 --> 00:09:12,760
there's this delightful little RGB underglow thing over at the front it

123
00:09:09,680 --> 00:09:14,160
weighs just over 5 lbs that's 2.4 kilos

124
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:17,640
if you're into that kind of thing so it's not a super lightweight laptop by

125
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:21,320
any means but it's not going to be a complete back breaker to carry around

126
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:24,600
either when you consider the power inside it it's downright reasonable

127
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:31,200
there are a few different configurations of this model but on top of our Intel

128
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:34,680
Core i7 12800 HX and 370 TI laptop GPU

129
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:36,560
in ours we've got a 1 tbte ndme gen 4x4

130
00:09:34,680 --> 00:09:42,480
with another fourth gen slot open for expansion 16 gigs of ddr5 4800 megat

131
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:45,079
transfer per second RAM Wi-Fi 6C a

132
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:49,920
99.9 hour battery which is the legal limit to carry onto a plane and as we

133
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:55,000
mentioned before the display is 15.6 in with a resolution of 1440p and if you

134
00:09:52,120 --> 00:10:00,640
haven't been following along it's OLED freaking OLED freaking finally other

135
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:07,079
configuration bump the graphics card up to a 3080 or 3080 TI can include up to

136
00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:08,959
an I9 12900 HX up to 32 gigs of RAM and

137
00:10:07,079 --> 00:10:12,440
come with Windows 11 Pro instead of home with prices starting at

138
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:15,920
$2,300 so you can check out the links to this guy down below big thanks again to

139
00:10:14,399 --> 00:10:19,760
Samsung display for showing us the future of laptop displays and for

140
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:26,000
sponsoring this video if you want to see more why not check out our Neo G9

141
00:10:22,079 --> 00:10:30,519
showcase it is very long and very curved

142
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:30,519
which is not something I knew I wanted
