WEBVTT

00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:06.480
okay so this monitor has appeared in

00:00:04.160 --> 00:00:11.120
like four videos i think at this point on our channel so

00:00:07.839 --> 00:00:12.240
you probably know how amazing it is it's

00:00:11.120 --> 00:00:16.480
got a whole laundry list of features some of which

00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:21.439
you might actually care a lot about like a 4k resolution screen

00:00:18.680 --> 00:00:25.840
144 hertz depending on how you interpret that refresh rate and i mean it's got

00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:30.880
some other stuff that you might not care about uh HDR g-sync professional grade

00:00:28.720 --> 00:00:35.920
color accuracy and of course ah oh it's heavy

00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:42.160
RGB lighting oh and of course right it costs 2 000 freaking dollars

00:00:39.760 --> 00:00:48.800
but what if you could take away the extra RGB cherries on top and just

00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:53.680
get the stuff that you really care about the 4k and the high refresh rate

00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:59.039
this my friends is the wasabi

00:00:55.840 --> 00:00:59.920
mango which

00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:03.920
yes is really what it's called

00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:12.400
thank you korea this is their uhd 430 it's a 43 inch 120

00:01:09.520 --> 00:01:18.880
hertz 4k display for over five hundred dollars less than

00:01:16.080 --> 00:01:25.040
this one over here thermaltake's vue 71k supports mini itx

00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:27.040
micro atx atx and eatx motherboards with

00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:31.510
a variety of mounting options for your GPU and radiator check it out today at

00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:36.329
the link below

00:01:39.360 --> 00:01:44.799
so the wasabi mango uhd 430 believe it

00:01:42.479 --> 00:01:50.000
or not was actually the first commercially available monitor to take

00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:55.840
full advantage of the displayport 1.4 spec which means that over a single

00:01:52.960 --> 00:02:04.560
cable it has enough bandwidth for the display's 3840 by 2160 resolution at 120

00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:07.920
hertz without any chroma subsampling

00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:09.200
so no it's not 144 hertz but depending

00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:12.720
who you ask neither is this one by the way you

00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:18.319
should check out the full review for this thing here it is it is pretty freaking amazing

00:02:15.200 --> 00:02:20.000
so you might be wondering if the uhd430

00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:26.720
came out first why is this review only coming out now

00:02:24.160 --> 00:02:31.680
that's because this thing is only available for purchase in south korea

00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:37.519
but now thanks to enterprising exporters you can

00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:42.000
actually get your very own in north america on ebay for fourteen hundred

00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:47.200
dollars with free international shipping that is a

00:02:44.239 --> 00:02:53.120
full six hundred dollars cheaper than the ASUS and acer offerings hold on a

00:02:50.720 --> 00:02:58.080
second it's 43 inches it does have DisplayPort but is this thing just a tv

00:02:56.480 --> 00:03:02.640
with displayport is it even any good for gaming

00:03:00.640 --> 00:03:07.280
uh yeah yeah it is like this thing might kind of

00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:11.360
look like a tv like look at this look at this stand here and everything

00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:15.920
it might even kind of like smell like a tv

00:03:12.720 --> 00:03:17.120
but it feels it games like a gaming

00:03:15.920 --> 00:03:23.200
monitor i mean we consistently saw

00:03:20.200 --> 00:03:26.000
impressively low input lag and even the

00:03:23.200 --> 00:03:31.360
response times feel great considering that this is an ips panel like there's

00:03:28.640 --> 00:03:35.040
barely any motion blur to be seen on it now of course

00:03:32.640 --> 00:03:40.239
going for a budget option can i call a 1400 monitor

00:03:38.640 --> 00:03:45.280
budget i mean first there is no variable refresh rate

00:03:43.200 --> 00:03:50.480
technology no g-sync no freesync even and since 4k games take

00:03:48.799 --> 00:03:57.439
a lot of uh peppa to run well you're likely to be in the

00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:59.680
40 to 60 FPS range when you're playing

00:03:57.439 --> 00:04:04.159
aaa titles even if you're running a gtx 1080 ti or a titan v

00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:09.200
like this machine is actually and that's the exact frame rate range

00:04:06.720 --> 00:04:14.159
where the most dramatic effects of variable refresh rate can be seen

00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:18.959
with that said your mileage may vary depending on the games you play and even

00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:24.720
how much you notice or care about tearing or stuttering and that sort of

00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:26.400
thing also there is a chance that the

00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:31.280
uhd430 will get a freesync support in the

00:04:28.400 --> 00:04:36.080
future via a firmware update that's actually the method that wasabi mango

00:04:32.960 --> 00:04:41.000
used to upgrade their uhd420

00:04:36.080 --> 00:04:41.000
way back in 2015 uht420

00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:50.320
compromise number the next is uh the HDR

00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:57.639
that uh oh yes there it is so it's on the box and they claim it

00:04:53.280 --> 00:05:00.800
supports HDR but this is one of those

00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:03.759
hdrint kind of displays where it only

00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:10.240
reaches 400 nit peak brightness true HDR really demands a minimum of a

00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:16.240
thousand nits peak brightness and while we're at it we should note that you

00:05:12.320 --> 00:05:19.520
can't get 120 hertz 10 bit color

00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:21.199
and HDR turned on all at the same time

00:05:19.520 --> 00:05:27.280
you actually need to turn the refresh rate down to 98 hertz to really

00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:30.639
experience HDR otherwise the bit depth

00:05:27.280 --> 00:05:33.199
gets downgraded to 8-bit

00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:37.520
which i mean on the subject of bit depths and color accuracy

00:05:36.080 --> 00:05:42.720
um well the au optronics panel that is in

00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:47.759
the ASUS pg27uq and the acer x27

00:05:44.880 --> 00:05:54.240
is a quantum dot panel giving it very accurate color over a wide gamut

00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:57.520
this one well let's just say it has

00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:59.840
good coverage of the srgb color space i

00:05:57.520 --> 00:06:03.120
mean it is ah ips after all but then it has

00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:07.759
what we would describe as bork all

00:06:04.880 --> 00:06:13.840
as far as dci p3 coverage goes and colors that are definitely

00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:16.400
not accurate enough for any serious

00:06:13.840 --> 00:06:19.680
photo editors out there let alone profes i wouldn't edit a picture i took on my

00:06:18.080 --> 00:06:22.720
phone on this thing quite frankly looking at it side by side with a real

00:06:21.440 --> 00:06:27.919
monitor finally if you're into that sort of thing

00:06:25.520 --> 00:06:31.919
there's no RGB or glowing lights or anything like that

00:06:29.840 --> 00:06:35.919
but at least the chassis actually isn't half bad it does have like a brushed

00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:40.080
anodized aluminum face even if the bezels aren't super skinny it's got a

00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:43.840
vase amount compatible back so you can put it on an ARM if you're a wall mount

00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:50.080
if you're into that sort of thing and it's got side accessible i o with two

00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:53.120
displayport 1.4 ports three HDMI 2.0

00:06:50.080 --> 00:06:55.680
ports and a toslink optical audio jack

00:06:53.120 --> 00:06:59.199
which you might actually use since the included speakers while definitely

00:06:57.919 --> 00:07:04.000
appreciated don't sound great and aren't even loud

00:07:02.560 --> 00:07:07.680
enough for monitor use let alone tv use

00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:13.520
so should you buy this monitor

00:07:11.039 --> 00:07:20.240
i mean i guess if you've got a powerful enough rig to actually take advantage of

00:07:17.039 --> 00:07:22.880
4k 120 hertz in at least some of your

00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:29.360
favorite games and you really want to be an early adopter then

00:07:25.280 --> 00:07:31.919
the 5 to 600 ish dollar price difference

00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:37.919
makes it easier to justify not to mention that it is 16 inches bigger to

00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:45.840
boot though that does mean that the pixel density drops from 163 pixels per

00:07:42.080 --> 00:07:46.720
inch on this guy to about 104 on this

00:07:45.840 --> 00:07:54.240
one so you won't be sitting that close anyway

00:07:51.039 --> 00:07:56.720
at least that is unless you are playing

00:07:54.240 --> 00:08:02.240
one of those visual novels that i

00:07:58.479 --> 00:08:02.240
definitely don't know anything about

00:08:02.960 --> 00:08:09.520
ting is the mobile carrier that does service contracts a little differently

00:08:07.280 --> 00:08:12.960
in the sense that there are no contracts there's no overage fees or any other

00:08:11.280 --> 00:08:18.560
carrier tricks like that you just pay a fair price for the talk text and data

00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:22.160
that you actually use every month and ting gives you complete control over

00:08:20.400 --> 00:08:27.599
your cell phone account you can set alerts and caps for each device on your

00:08:24.960 --> 00:08:31.440
account to keep your usage in check nationwide lte coverage means that

00:08:29.440 --> 00:08:35.599
you'll have great coverage from coast to coast and almost any phone will work

00:08:33.839 --> 00:08:40.479
with ting from that ancient motorola razer sitting in your basement to the

00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:43.200
latest samsung galaxy s9 or iphone 10 so

00:08:40.479 --> 00:08:47.640
check your phone's compatibility and get 25 bucks off your bill or towards a new

00:08:45.519 --> 00:08:51.200
phone at Linus.ting.com we're going to have that

00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:56.640
linked below so thanks for watching guys if this

00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:58.560
