HP’s BFGD is now called the Omen X Emperium and it’s coming in February

One of the big things I was expecting to hear more about at this year’s CES was Nvidia’s BFGDs – or Big Format Gaming Displays, to use their proper name. Or maybe that’s not the right name to use any more, as we did hear a little bit about Nvidia’s BFGDs at CES this week, in that they’ve now been pulled under the banner of Nvidia’s G-Sync Ultimate brand along with the rest of their high-end HDR screens like the Asus ROG Swift PG27UQ and the Acer Predator X27.

But that was sort of it. No big release date, no additional displays to be added to their currently just three-strong line-up. Nadda. Except for HP, that is, as they were the one company whose BFGD (now known by the much grander-sounding name of the Omen X Emperium 65) was on display at CES this year, and they’ve finally given us a price and release date. Brace yourselves, folks, because it ain’t pretty.
