Stacked microLEDs could bring us the ultimate gaming monitor

Researchers over at MIT have discovered a new microLED fabrication technique, which could finally give us the pixel density we've been looking for when it comes to high resolution gaming monitors. Known as vertical stacking, the process involves, well, stacking microLEDs in order to pack more LEDs into a smaller area, while avoiding the defects associated with high pixel density.

Pixels have been shrinking for years, and recent advancements have seen microLED tech take pixel density to new levels, though not in any way that PC gamers like us can practically enjoy. The problem comes when balancing pixel density, resolution, and size of a gaming monitor. It's something of a juggling act, with each one affecting the other. If you want a high-resolution, high pixel density gaming monitor, even with microLED tech at your disposal, it's simply impossible to pack enough LEDs next to each other into the kind of panel size that's acceptable to house on your desk.. That's fine if you're using it from halfway across the room, but placing it on the desk in front of you would be a somewhat less palatable experience.

hell yeah.

Where is the ultimate then

We're getting closer and closer to perfection in terms of image clarity. Can't wait to see what kind of marketing stunts big brands will spit out with these crazy PPI numbers to make you believe this'll be 'one of a kind' killer feature you can't live without.

My phone has less than 7' screen with 4k resolution and it only equates to over 600-something ppi. What kind of resolution would such monitor need to have to be able to reach 5000 ppi at let's say 24'? And what GPU would it require to run just desktop, not even mentioning Crysis?

Super cool to see innovation in monitors as well as TVs and phone/tablet screens I wonder what refresh rates are like on these types of screens

No 🤷 sorry

Madonna accuses Grammy Awards critics of 'ageism and misogyny' after comments about her appearanceThe singer said she has never apologised for the creative choices she's made nor the way she looks or dresses and 'isn't going to start' - and also claimed she's been 'degraded by the media since the beginning of my career'. why celebrate women past 45 that erase every line in their face with surgery & botox to try and look younger but instead lose all their character & become a caricature? Madonna is correct she is criticized for getting old. If Madonna didn't get plastic surgery people would still make fun of her. She was so beautiful she didn't need surgery. But has her success been about how she looks? Nobody would have lasted this long in the music industry if it was about beauty and not talent.
