The LCDs also support HDR10 technology, though actual HDR experience on these devices can hardly be 'full' considering their relatively low peak brightness. The GigaCrysta monitors from IO Data are clearly aimed at gamers, so they support special modes that makes dark scenes look brighter, a mode that reduces response time by bypassing internal image processing as well as gamma settings for different genres. Other characteristics of the display are just what you come to expect from fast TN panels, including 250, 300 or 400 nits maximum brightness, a 1000:1 contrast ratio, 170°/160° horizontal/vertical viewing angles, and so on. The IO Data GigaCrysta-series monitors in question are based on 24/24.5-inch TN panels featuring a Full-HD resolution, 60/144/240 Hz refresh rates, and as their main selling point, a 0.6 ms – 0.8 ms GtG response time when the overdrive function is activated (see exact specs in the table below). The GigaCrysta family of displays are currently available only in Japan, but since the LCD panels used by IO Data are available to other monitors manufacturers as well, expect to see similar products arrive in other markets shortly.

IO Data, a Japanese display vendor, has quietly started to sell gaming monitors featuring a sub-1 ms response time.
