Beijing, Feb 1 (IANS): Display screen manufacturer BOE has announced the world's fastest gaming monitor capable of reaching a refresh rate of 500Hz+.

The new prototype is a 27-inch oxide FHD 500 Hz+ display said to be the world's highest refresh rate display, reports GizmoChina.

Currently, that BOE's monitor is a prototype designed for demonstration purposes only. BOE has not stated if it will be making a 500Hz+ gaming panel for the mass market anytime soon.

According to reports, this monitor uses a high mobility Oxide backplane, supports 8Lane eDP output, true 8bit output, and has a 1ms response.
