Hi.

 

Anyone have one of these (Asus PG278Q ROG Swift G-Sync 144Hz) and would like to share their gaming experience on it.

 

I know Linus gave it a very good review, but looking to see what everyone else thinks.

 

Thanks.

Not really better, rather it can be used by professionals(artists and such)

 

that 1ms response time in the swift is much better, and the aesthetics on the swift are far superior.

 

BUT you just made me think twice about the swift

 

should I buy the acer one or the swift??????? fudge

its still a great monitor... why are you looking for reviews AFTER you bought it? thats a bit backwards haha

 

SNIP

 

The Swift is 1ms and this is 5, however this only has 2.75ms of input lag, and the swift has about 4ms of input lag-  so what you lose you gain back! 

 

overall lag is about the same, and is negligible 

 

If you prefer better colours and viewing angles this one is superior - there are MORE like this coming out, with freesync too etc

I did look at reviews before hand, and everything I read seemed really good so I bought it.

 

I just wanted to see of what "normal" people that have used the monitor actually think of it.
