I have a G7 but have seen conflicting info on whether it comes with 2.1 or not. I got it about 8 months ago, so I think it might not have had it then, but the newer ones do? If so, sucks.

Yeah, I think I'll just have to search my model number and get the specs off the internet. I'm bracing to find out it's 2.0. Ugh.

The flat 28 inch odyssey G7 is the newer model that they make now and its 4k 144hz with 2 hdmi 2.1 ports.
I have the flat screen 28 inch model with hdmi 2.1

-
I have the curved 32". It's great, but I don't think it's 2.1.
-

It doesnt matter. The 2.1 is backwards compatible so itll work with all hdmi ports. If you had a 2.1 port then youd definitely want the ultra fast hdmi 2.1 cables.

Correct, the 27 and the 32in G7 are both the same aside from the size. Both curved. The 28inch flat screen is the newer one they make now that has two 2.1 ports and its 4k 144hz, the 27 and 32 inch curved are 2k 240hz monitors with one 2.0 port

Well, still a great 32" monitor, but dang. No 2.1 hurts. Or it doesn't, since this wasn't an issue on my radar until about a week ago...lol

I wanted the g7 with the hdmi 2.1 believe it comes starting the 28 inch

Correct. It only comes in 28 inch. Thats the one I just got from BB a week ago for 670 bucks after tax. I now have that monitor side by side with a 27in HP Omen which I bought a year ago for 500 (still costs 500) that didnt have 2.1 output and was 2k with no hdr. I wanted VRR cause of all the forum hype. Both monitors are fantastic and the G7 purchase, while not incredibly needed, was a move for the future as well. 2.1 and 4k 120hz is going to be the move in the coming years so I figured now is as good a time as ever.

Nice! Notice the difference from switching to hdmi2.1 in hitting aspect? I was gonna try to snag one but not sure if it’s worth dishing $700
