A few weeks ago, Philips announced the Evnia 27M2G5800, a poetically-named, 27-inch, 5K dual-mode gaming monitor for sale in China, and today, the company has announced a western counterpart—the 27M2D5901A (yeah, monitor names are like that). I managed to get hands-on experience with the screen at a press event in Croatia, and dual-mode works as well as I'd want it to. The all-white panel is capable of swapping between 5120 x 2880 (165 Hz) and 2560 x 1440 (330 Hz). The use case here is putting one game on its highest possible resolution for those pretty, immersive games, and swapping to 1440p for competitive play in another. 330 Hz is certainly on the high-end in that regard, while 5K is more or less wasted on the likes of Counter-Strike 2. Also, if your rig is a tad lacking and you plan on upgrading in the future, you can focus on 1440p for the time being, then swap when you finally have the power to justify 5K—though there's very little out there with the power to justify 5K at the moment. Cesar Reyes Acosta, the European Commercial Leader for Philips' sister company AOC, tells me "ours is the same [as the 27M2G5800], but ours is more equipped."
