نعم، تحتوي الشاشة على منفذ HDMI 2.1، مما يسمح لوحدات التحكم بالتشغيل بدقة Full HD وبسرعة 120Hz مع دعم تقنية معدل التحديث المتغير (VRR).
ما هي تقنية ELMB Sync وكيف تساعد في الألعاب؟
تتيح تقنية ELMB Sync تشغيل تقنية تقليل ضبابية الحركة بالتزامن مع تقنيات التحديث المتغير (G-SYNC / FreeSync)، مما يزيل التشبُّح وتمازق الشاشة في نفس الوقت.
