oh it's actually an impressively thin box
and inside is the aorus fv43u
43-inch monitor this video is sponsored by aorus so i'm going to give you a tour
of the things you can see when you unbox this product
it's going to be really fun come along increase the gravity
it comes with two feet television style and these are actually
metal boom that's that side
couple screws i'm gonna need a screwdriver
as george w bush once said now watch this drive
the back what kind of styling is we working with here definitely gamery
more gamery than a tv got some plastic
got some peels oh excuse me
this never happens i swear to god i can see a 200 by 200 millimeter
basa mounting system if you don't dig
the wide feet which could be a problem if you're working on a smaller desk or something
or a tv stand for that matter displayport 1.4
which is the good one but more importantly and what makes this thing feel actually new for a change
is HDMI 2.1 get two of them headphone
jack and then you got your line out so you can just go directly from this to your probably big
bookshelf speakers let's be honest if you're putting this on your desk
maybe your desk is big enough for like just some chunguses
and then usbc with 18 watts power delivery
you can charge your phone not like a macbook pro but
yeah trickle maybe uh then you got some usb 3.0 as well as the
type b for uplink to power all this
hubbage oh wait there's one more hole in the back of this thing that is
the integrated power supply right there and there's a kensington lock thing
once you start peeling you're not allowed to stop this is really awkward
for me fortunately this pc has a 20 series
graphics card not a 30 series so i don't have HDMI 2.1
on this machine so i'm going to plug in displayport but this is just an unboxing guys
it should be enough for our purposes sitting here using the nipple navigation
like a chump even though that is my preferred navigator i'm going to use
this remote you can see it's very simple remote it's almost like a maybe a samsung tv or
roku remote it's got aorus branding on the bottom really tactile buttons
very lightweight satisfied all right so this is a va panel so it should have
dark blacks as long as you're on axis you should be okay but it has quantum dot enhancement
film which is nice and i guess that is why they're claiming
over 97 coverage of the dci p3 color space which
is pretty dang big usually
you know 90 plus 95 plus but 97 they
also give me this little calibration report from the factory where the the biggest delta e is around
three which you probably could discern with your eye but on average it's a lot lower
than that the average is 1.25 which is quite low
you know it's just crazy how much you can get in a monitor this is a 4k
monitor 144 hertz over hm 2.1
plus it's color accurate enough for color critical work professional work
and it's HDR 1000 vs basic display certified
you can just get everything in one package now it's insane i should clarify
these delta e numbers are for srgb not dci p3 hey we're in here
look at that yeah it's 4k it's very
clear it looks awesome let's check out the NVIDIA control panel okay we
came out right at 4k and 144 hertz didn't have to change anything
output color depth i can choose 10 bit but this actually is an 8 foot
8 bit plus frc panel it's not a native 10-bit panel
or just put that on now being
v8 it may not have the fastest pixel response time especially when you go
from black to almost black like a medium gray
but this isn't a review just saying vas are
known for that this is so much so much easier to use
than any kind of interface that's on the machine i like
having a remote starting with the gaming settings we have aim stabilizer sync then we got
black equalizer which is going to help make uh buddy hiding in the shadows
easier to see super resolution just super sampling
overdrive okay so instead of low medium high you have smart
overdrive picture quality balance and speed which is just going to be
overdrived af and then adaptive sync either on on or
off and of course that is your variable refresh rate g-sync compatible
free sync whatever you want to call it these days you got some picture modes display now
there's a built-in kvm which is cool which means that you can use the same keyboard mouse
and monitor to have two different machines going it supports picture by picture
picture in picture and all that good kvm stuff
this is really cool when you're in the picture settings it's nice to be able to
go in here and change the values of red green and blue and not every display
exposes that but this gives you not just rgm b but also cyan magenta and yellow
if you want to calibrate this manually you can
i like that user defined color temperature and you got your RGB
settings right in there this is awesome color spaces you've got srgb and dci p3 like we mentioned but
you also have the adobe color space which some people work in it's nice to have
that and local dimming auto or off your only options
oh you can save all your settings different profiles nice to have
and you can reset everything cool very nice
on-screen display experience all right returning HDR on
there's actually three different HDR modes you've got your
HDR 1000 mode which i think is going to be the most accurate but then there's an
HDR mode for just for gaming then there's an HDR movie mode so each of
those are going to differ in the way that they interpret the the transfer function i'm skeptical of
it i think i recommend just keeping it in the hr 1000 mode
whoa on board speakers baby
let me just turn that down oh no you can't hold the volume button down you
got to click it i'm going backwards
yeah definitely has speakers and they're pretty serviceable
i mean you got a big chassis like this they don't need to be
that bad right especially if you're close i mean this this
is only at 17 volume probably goes
really loud i'm not gonna say it sounds great when it's loud but
if you're this close doesn't have to be that loud well that's super immersive
and huge it's a 4k monitor 144 hertz thousand in HDR what more could you ask
for personally i'd wall mount this thing it would look a lot cooler so thanks for
watching this ShortCircuit unboxing guys if you like this video hit like hit subscribe hit us up in the
comments telling us to review this on LTT if you guys are so so keen about
learning more about the ars fv43u thanks aorus for sponsoring this
video did i say that already i said it three times thank you
