Does anyone own or has anyone tried this monitor?

Does anybody own this monitor? I'm looking for a g sync ready 27 inch 144hz monitor and this looks too good to be true at that price so what looking for some feedback? Thanks guys :)

That seems like a typical price for it, actually. It's the 1440p 144hz that are expensive, that one is just 1080p 144hz and a TN panel so it will be relatively cheap.

I just thought it was good for the price as i want a 27" With g sync and the cheapest i could find before this one were atleast 15%-20% more expensive :P

[_I_]

there are cheaper 1080p 144hz gsync monitors

They are mostly 24" though i want a 27"

[_I_]

at 1080p on 27in, pixels are large close to .31-.37mm

1080p looks better on a 22-24in
(.25-.27mm pixels)

at 27+in look for 1440p
1440p at 27-32-in, its close to .23-27.mm

Okay thanks man :) I'm buying a 1080 and i have a 3770 so i may just opt for a 1440p 144hz monitor could you recomend a good reliable and good value one?

[_I_]

1440p 144hz will cost alot more than 1080p 144hz
and take much more gpu to run good
but gsync will help with that by lowering the refresh rate to match the gpus capability

Do you think that a GTX 1080 a i7 3770 non k and 16gb of ram at 1600mhz would suffice for 144hz at 1440p?

[_I_]

that would be a good combo for it

gpus and cpus are always getting better, a good monitor will last 10+ years

[ChadTheImpaler]

Exactly i will buy one from someone reputeable like asus or benq was just a little worried about my cpu being throttling my gpu but ive been reassured that my cpu will do fine i have a z board from asus too so i can overclock using the baseclock method

[_I_]

3rd gen i7 non k is still very good cpu

newer games are starting to support ht
and dx12/vulkan apis can make use if more threads

itll be fine for a while yet

Okay good to know! Thank's for you're help! ^^
