Eve Spectrum 4K 27″ (2021)

Originally crowd-funded under the Eve brand and later rebranded to Dough, this 27-inch 4K IPS monitor was among the first to ship with dual HDMI 2.1 ports for next-gen console gaming. The primary USB-C port delivers up to 100W of power while carrying a DisplayPort 1.4 video signal, enough to charge even power-hungry laptops. A second USB-C port on the side provides 15W for phone charging and data transfer. Two USB 3.2 Gen 2 downstream ports round out the hub functionality.

27″ 4K 144Hz IPS monitor with 2× HDMI 2.1, USB-C 100W PD, and USB 3.2 Gen 2 hub.

Notes & Compatibility

Company originally branded as Eve, later rebranded to Dough. Primary USB-C delivers 100W PD with DP 1.4 video. Secondary USB-C delivers 15W, no video. Crowd-funded monitor that shipped from mid-2021. Shipping began in 2021. Every USB port on it, both USB-C, the two USB-A and the USB-B upstream, runs at 10Gbps (USB 3.1 Gen 2). 4K at 144Hz with 10-bit colour over DisplayPort 1.4 or the primary USB-C leans on DSC. For a laptop or GPU that misbehaves with it, Dough’s firmware can switch DSC off or emulate DisplayPort 1.2, which limits 4K to 60Hz.
