CES 2026: Gigabyte unveils new-gen OLED monitors

At CES this week, Gigabyte has introduced four new OLED gaming monitors to its line-up, focusing heavily on picture-quality tuning for HDR and SDR content. The key new feature is HyperNits, which aims to address issues with HDR modes appearing dim by boosting the brightness curve without blowing out highlights.

For HDR, GIGABYTE is introducing a set of tuned HDR Picture Modes including HDR Movie, HDR Game and HDR Vivid, alongside a new feature called HyperNits. Many OLED panels appear dim in HDR peak‑brightness modes due to APL constraints, and HyperNits aims to counter this by reshaping the EOTF curve to boost brightness by up to 30% without blowing out highlights. Users can select HyperNits High for maximum output or HyperNits Medium for a milder 20% lift.

SDR content is handled by a new AI Picture Mode trained on a large dataset to automatically adjust settings based on activity. It can reduce brightness and blue light for work, increase contrast and adjust gamma for movies, or activate AI Black Equalizer for improved visibility in FPS titles. Adjustments are applied dynamically in real time.

These new displays will also come with a new set of Gigabyte's ‘Tactical Features'. Tactical Switch 2.0 enables one‑click switching between resolutions and aspect ratios such as 4:3 or 5:4, while Ultra Clear is designed to improve motion clarity and reduce blur in fast‑moving content.

The CES lineup includes the ultra‑wide QD‑OLED MO34WQC36 and the 4K QD‑OLED MO32U24, both featuring the new ObsidianShield film and DisplayHDR True Black 500 certification. ObsidianShield is said to improve perceived black levels by up to 40% and increases surface hardness from 2H to 3H for better scratch resistance. The MO34WQC36 also adopts a new V‑stripe sub‑pixel structure for improved text clarity. Rounding out the range is the MO27Q28GR, which uses RealBlack Glossy 4th‑gen WOLED technology and carries UL certification for bright‑room black performance.
