Comment on Why won’t Steam Machine support HDMI 2.1? Digging in on the display standard drama.
x00z@lemmy.world 1 week agoDo you know of any big dumb TVs or monitors that I could buy in Europe? I only know of Sceptre TVs which are mostly meant for businesses and storefronts but they are extremely hard to get in Europe.

Biggest I found is the Acer Nitro XV275KP3 Gaming Monitor. You kinda pay gaming hardware prices, but given the support for up to 120Hz and HDR10, I was OK with that. It’s mostly used for gaming, anyway.

A 27" monitor will not be anywhere near a replacement for 60" TV, I’m afraid.

That one is 27". I think that’s way too small for the living room. I also consider 120hz to be overkill for some couch gaming and movies.

Do let me know if you find something more suited.

If you don’t need 120Hz, you don’t need HDMI 2.1. You can get 4k @ 60Hz with the HDMI 2.0 that the Steam Machine has, so you can use just any TV.

The question was for a dumb TV and not just any TV.
