For anyone wondering,
the new 17" Sager Displays with 120hz refresh have beautiful, clear colors.
When i calibrated my display the factory color gamut was the closest match to a post calibrated laptop display ive seen. Very good color gamut out of the box.
Most noticeable however is the crisp, clean, clear colors especially with graphics and fast moving gaming.
Laptops and displays, especially the 17" models are heavy, but its worth it do to screen quality.
Dont hesitate on getting one of the 120hz screens. Gsync isnt needed. As graphics seem to mesh well and tight with these new 120hz displays.

Interesting, what games did you try and what kind of fps did you get to keep it smooth? I'm researching laptps now and the screen/gaming performance is top of my list. -
And most importantly, which reseller offered you this 120hz display option? I know some, but none have them in stock yet? -
Which model of NB and screen do you have? P870DM3? and the LG Panel?

with Nvidia 1070 @ 1080p
ive played Planetside 2 - frames smooth and crystal clear action. unknown fps
World of Warcraft - Ultra 60-120
steady fps
Guild Wars 2 - 120fps
Ashes of Singularity - Gorgeous Crystal clear Action & Colors. unknown fps.
Compared to 970m + 1080p Gsync. No contest! The 120hz screens blow the prior 60hz gsync away with better colors, faster clearer motion graphics, and much better color gamut.Scerate likes this. -
i have the Sager 9872S (Clevo P870DM2/Dm3) with the 120hz AUO panel.

thats what i wanted to hear, just curious you play some pretty fast paced games too like Quake Live or Overwatch, cause i want to actually get almost the same config, i just want to be sure the display has about 5ms response time

i purchased my laptop directly through Sager soon as they were released.
it makes sense all the 120hz screens are now sold out. Once you view one compared to any other prior laptop tech, youll see why..
On additional note: the 120hz AUO panels have a beautiful deeper black level. Similar to OLED black levels for televisions. The Colors are Truly Clear & Impressivejaybee83, sirana, Scerate and 1 other person like this. -
i have Overwatch and will test it out and report fps back. im sure fps will be 120 as thats what i max allow on most game settings.

haha yeah i'M pretty sure you can do 120fps easily, even my 980m without OC hasn't any problems reaching that fps mark, but you pretty sold me now for the P870DM3, just need a competitive panel for scrims and matches. The 60/75 Hz LG the P77xDM/P870DM series has, is good in color but gsync is useless for me and the high reaction time, namely 25-35ms is pretty hard to not acknowledge for competitive gameplay
-
I'm unfamiliar with any of theses games so could someone tell me how they compare to Witcher 3, Fallout 4 and Doom? -
Heat appears about same as older sager/clevo models. Nothing hot and can sit comfortably on lap or laptop tray.
Fans are louder when gaming then prior models ive noticed. i wear headphones so not much of impact on me.
When not under load, fan noise is greatly lessened and typical for most any laptop.Atma likes this. -

if the dm2 is different than dm3, than i hav dm2. Sager 9872S to be specific
i was told cases/configs are pretty much the same. but maybe different resellers adjust things. For reference i just go by Sager models. was just trying to be helpful with the clevo notes.Atma likes this. -

I may upgrade my P770ZM to one of the new 120 Hz panels, maybe this year or next year. Should be quite a big upgrade over my 60 Hz IPS (even though, technically, my panel can OC to 96Hz/100Hz) even though I'm happy with the display already.

@Scerate
Dreammachines.pl (also a Prema partner) just replied my email and stated that they will offer 120hz G-Sync displays in 4-6 weeks. Can't wait!
They offer prema's bios and vbios for the P775DM3 as well as payment in Euros if you switch the country when placing an order.initialjie, jaybee83, hexum23 and 2 others like this. -
Do we have any responses times of the 120hz gsync panel coming? Also TN or IPS?Georgel likes this. -
I just hope the 120 Gsync one isn't just a silly upgrade of mine LG LP173WF4-SPD1 and has the high response time of 25-35ms

As for 120hz displays, the AUO is gorgeous and is the one i have. i dont know the specs as ive not seen any manufacturer/ distributor release them yet.
nvidia knew what they were doing when releasing pascal and the force behind 120hz displays.
Im sure you will love any 120hz display. ive not seen a 120hz LG, but they are good manufacturer too at least with tvs.Scerate likes this. -
ive had gsync displays, albeit 75hz and there is no comparison.
the 120hz AUO trumps 75hz Gsync by a wide margin in clarity, color, and responsiveness.Scerate likes this. -
any chance u could share the display model with us? hwinfo should give u that info

Question, I assume in the first post the 120hz screen is the 1080p version. Assuming I buy from a place that doesn't offer it right now, say LPC, should I buy the regular 1080p screen now if I plan on upgrading later? Or are the 120hz panels thicker like how 4K is and I would need to buy the slightly thicker chassis for upgrade later?

Stupid question but thought I'd ask anyway: If you plan to use external gsync 144hz montitor for gaming, it doesn't matter what lappy screen type and refresh you have, right? --as far as being able to get the refresh and gsync to work on the external? (I did say it was stupid question, just fishing for weirdness I might not be aware of). Thanks.

If you're right, it's still good to know (although it's the first time I've heard of G-Sync and non G-Sync GPUs of the exact same type). -

All machines without optimus or with the ability to turn it off support external G-sync displays. My NP9873 with non G-sync 120hz display runs my Asus swift with G-sync just fine.

G-Sync at this point is more of a glorified gimmick hyped to no end.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nvidia_G-Sync
Wikipedia isn't the most accurate source of information around, but what info there is in that article indicates G-Sync is a two-step process. The first is having a card capable of G-Sync with the right drivers and the second is possessing a desktop or laptop screen with the right hardware in it.
Quite a bit different than having G-Sync or no G-Sync variants of the same GPU. But then again, I could be wrong and someone who knows better can correct me.
New 120hz Laptops Displays = Gorgeous!
