"Now wait for 1,000 Hz content and capable GPUs."
Forget the content and GPU, you need an input port capable of that.
HDMI 2.1 and Display Port 1.4 cap out at, what? 240?

Easy, just connect 4 cables!
With DSC DP 1.4 can do 4k 360 but it still ain't close to 1000
So you just need 3 4090's with 1 displayport each to the monitor and a whole new version of sli.
.. I actually wonder if the graphics cards could multiplex across multiple dp to a single display.
I vaguely remember that being a thing for early commercial 8k projectors, but I don't know anything about the implementation.
Two ports at once have been used for Samsung's 5120x1440 240hz monitors. Each port refreshes half of the screen and there are two scanlines going from left to right. Using the calc here you might be able to use two DP2.1 UHBR80 cables with DSC and nonstandard timings to run 4k 1000hz 10bit.

Who needs 1000hz refresh rate? I understand it's impressive, but 120hz already looks smooth to the human eye.
Yeah, for me, I'm looking for prettier not fastest after 120 Hz or so
Competitive (professional) gamers?
Seems there are diminishing returns, but at least some gains are measurable at 360.
In thought that 60Hz was enough for most games, and that for shooters and other real time games 120 or 144 was better. However, it reaches a point where the human eye can't notice even if it tried.
Honestly, going up in framerate t9o much is just a waste of GPU potency and electricity.
It's pretty easy to discern refresh rate with the human eye if one tries. Just move your cursor back and forth really quickly. The number of ghost cursors in the trail it leaves behind (which btw only exist in perception by the human eye) is inversely proportional to the refresh rate.

A better way to look at this is frametime.
At 60 FPS/Hz, a single frame is displayed for 16.67ms. At 120 Hz, a single frame is displayed for 8.33ms. At 240 Hz, a single frame is displayed for 4.16ms. A difference of >8ms per frame (60 vs 120) is quite noticeable for many people, and >4ms (120 vs 240) is as well, but the impact is just half as much. So you get diminishing returns pretty quickly.
Now I'm not sure how noticeable 1000 Hz would be to pretty much anyone as I haven't seen a 1000 Hz display in action yet, but you can definitely make a case for 240 Hz and beyond.

So it's not really a 4K 1000Hz screen then, if it's just togglable between being a 4k 240 Hz screen and a 1080p 1000 Hz screen.
From what I understand in the article the prototype TCL panel being demonstrated is actually 4k@1000hz. They mention a few competitors with multiple modes right after which could be where the confusion comes from.
That's not what the article says?
Oops, I misread, that was a different monitor
"Create your own penis showing game"
That's what the tech world has come to recently, especially with monitors and smartphones.
Recently?
Tech has always been about pushing boundaries. And that's not a bad thing

Why only 4K? We have 8K monitors now.
Performance Mode > Quality Mode ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
