this is a shame, why offer hdr1000 with this spec if you can’t hit it. Is the max bandwidth for that 120fps?
Yes that is ys bad advertising imho, if they truly wanted that they needed to wait for next DP to be launched
But don't get me wrong, you can run Hdr1000 at 120hz 10bit 5130x1440 and it looks awesome

Can anyone confirm how to adjust to 10-bit colour in windows? If I go to nvidia control panel and set it to 10-bit it seems to randomly revert itself back to 8-bit? Not sure if I've got something set wrong, can anyone confirm NV panel settings? Mine looks like this..
The G9 supports display stream compression (dsc), you can run 10bit HDR @240hz if your GPU supports it.

Hi guys I'm trying to download the Korean ver 1005.3 for my g9 but it downloads as a disk image. What am I doing wrong
You need to format a smallish usb drive, say 16mb or so, save it to that, insert usb drive into monitor usb slot, then use monitor OSD to locate it and update firmware, I THINK that’s how it’s done.

Instructions for firmware update are on the UK site in support/download section
Amazing to hear, thank you for this.
Yeah I've been running 5120x1440 240Hz HDR on Death Stranding for the last couple of days on my G9. Looks awesome, such an atmospheric game and 32:9 really adds to the immersion, weird that the devs didn't include an option for 5120x1440 resolution, have to manually modify the game's .exe with the new resolution. 2080Ti here too

Yer iv have the usb formated its just when I download the file it say wright to a disk
I can definitely see a difference between 120-240Hz in games like Overwatch and other first person shooters, and it does help (Linus did a video on this if you're interested https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OX31kZbAXsA). But for most games where you aren't aiming a lot I'm perfectly fine with 60Hz and above so that you can crank up the graphics for a better overall experience.

Is the korean update an exe file for the G9 ?

I just ran the exe and it auto extracted the file to one of my externals ready for me to put on mem pen.

yes its the same as on the G7...double click on exe file and it will extract to a drive and that drive should open a window...the file is called M-T9549GGAA-1005.3[7BDF].img
Just seen that its an image (.img) file whereas the G7 one was a .bin file half that size.
That will be a problem as the monitor needs the bin file not an image file....someone else with a G9 thats already done it will hopefully help
