I’ve been rocking the original Acer X34 since 2014 and feel like upgrading again. Specifically the AW3423DWF tickles my fancy, but I’m struggling to decide whether or not it is worth it on Mint without HDR support.
I’ve only been running Linux for about a year and have gotten quite comfortable with Mint, but see that I’d need to change distro if I want to use the Plasma DE, which is the only (?) one with decent HDR support at the moment?
Do any of you run HDR capable monitors in Linux?
If yes: is it worth the purchase even if I stick to SDR mode or would you recommend re-rolling distro to get support today?
If I change it up, I’m looking at Fedora.
Thanks in advance!
To me, if I had to get a new monitor, it would 100% have to be 120 Hz at 4K OLED with HDR.
My TV and smartphone are both HDR with high refresh rates and it really puts my laptop and desktop monitors to shame.
