First Impression It really big, this is my biggest monitor ever and this already push to my limit of acceptance monitor screen size. The good thing is I finally can set 100% scaling in 4K resolution monitor. The display quality is gorgeous, vibrant and pop, deep black and awesome HDR performance, finally no blooming and halo effect issue like mini LED. (with condition you set the correct settings and input) OLED weakness that never bothering me and you may no need to worry about it also The less than 200 nits in SDR - never an issue, I only set brightness 45 with uniform brightness on and it is already very bright under normal fluorescent tube light turn on. Matted surface - I always prefer matted surface as it can block reflection light behind you. Text fringing issue - it looks absolutely sharp as the fringing is very minimal and hard to notice. (must use DP 1.4 connection for Windows) Issues on this monitor HDR Temperature issue - you only have two options in HDR - 6500 and 10000 and the switching always make the screen very dim when using 10000 temperature and you need to re-switch in between for back to normal. No such issue when using temperature 6500. HDR output quality - it still looks a bit not right in Windows 11 and also macOS under productivity desktop, no issue in gaming or video. Screen Move - the way Asus implemented is kind of wrong compare with what LG do, no extra pixel for the movement and instead they cut the output a bit. HDMI 2.1 issue - Below is issue I face in this monitor, my card is RTX 3080. The OSD show VRR control on or off (adaptive sync) instead of G-sync Compatible and this will lose the G-Sync Compatible certificated. VRR Control on - badly stuttering in gaming, it is nearly unplayable in most games. No issue when using DP and it is showing G-Sync compatible on off instead. Text Fringing badly - the output is not sharp and bad in Windows 11. No issue in my MacBook Pro 14" (2013), I believe due to macOS did not using RGB pixel alignment for text. This issue is not there when connect using DP 1.4 under Windows 11. HDR output look weird - the gamma and tone mapping seem weird; it looks darker than it supposes. The HDR output is brilliant when using DP 1.4 The Best setting on this monitor DP 1.4 connection only for Windows. HDR Temperature 6500 only. Uniform brightness on - this makes the screen output uniform. Screen Move off - if you don't want image to get cut off, but this may also prompt to burning. I decide off it as not using very long period and I believe it is not that easier to get burn especially I only set 30 brightness with uniform brightness on in SDR. Above impression is based on firmware V037, mine is preloaded with this firmware which is higher than Asus provided at website of V033.

Like the title say's I'm just looking for a good reliable gaming monitor that shows accurate colors at 1440p 27" and something at 144 or 240hz. i built a new desktop with an rtx 3080 so i'm looking to upgrade my older monitor to match the graphics and get the most out of it. "which honestly any new monitor would probably be an upgrade over lol" i will add that I'm not entirely worried about cost. however i will add that I've placed the budget of 850 for myself. So far I've seen a lot of reviews mention three monitors however the two that caught my eyes so far was the Odyssey g7 and the Asus ROG Swift PG279QM 27". i'm open to any suggestions or opinion's for those who already have or has owned one of those two monitors. But Any advice or suggestions would be welcome and appreciated.

Hi fellas, So this christmas (which is soon) I'm going to make a minor upgrade to my fairly new PC (bought in august): https://pcpartpicker.com/list/n3VYvV Since I didn't have the full budget I spent back then I had to wait until christmas for my bonuses from work lol. And before you will write "you don't need it" or "why do you need it" or something in that way, just don't, this is one of my "dreams" to achieve, and after waiting 10 years, I think I can do it. So, what I'm considering is: AOC Agon AG352UCG for 777.40€ Acer Predator X34A for 1,175.27€ ASUS ROG Swift PG348Q for 1,091.50€ Also in consideration: Upgrade EVGA 750 P2 to Corsair AX860i - could sell EVGA for 120-130€ and buy the Corsair for 195,70€ Additional GPU - GTX 1080 Ti SC2 (SLI) - current cheapest is 867,90€ Full watercooled loop (EKWB/Alphacool) - from what I've researched it would cost me around 700-800€ THe main question is, which of those 3 monitors should I get? Will my 1080 Ti be sufficient to run at that resolution at max. settings? Although my current games are not so high on demand, I am planning on playing the new Battlefront 2, and maybe older games with 4K textures (Skyrim, Fallout 4 etc.) current new budget is: 2,700 - 3,000€ TL;DR / Summary: Primary - New UWQHD monitor, min. 34" - best pick from AOC, Asus and Acer? Secondary - GTX 1080 Ti in SLI on air or would a single be sufficient? Tertiary - buy a new PSU now or later? Quaternary - full water loop? - IMO too expensive Thanks in advance for the replies, hopefully you can understand my english

So I've been having issues with my computer/network for the past month. The first block of text is just gonna be me listing the problems that have occurred in that time and the second will be my current issue. I figure that the background information might help someone. Also here is my part list that contains every item connected to my computer. The problem lies with the Asus ROG Swift. So this may all seem irrelevant but I ended up formatting my computer and such which could've brought on the issue and figured I should start at the beginning. About a month ago my internet started to slow down. I figured whatever, the router is getting old and hasn't had a firmware upgrade in about a year so I figured I should replace it. That got upgraded and it's now an Asus RT-AC88U. That went well for two weeks and I got my new monitor and surge protector to redo my setup. Just as a side note I have my computer plugged directly into the wall and my monitors with all the peripherals in the surge protector (I know I should get a UPS for my computer and such, I'm working on it) and my monitors are both hooked up with Displayport cables. Now about 2 weeks ago my network started to slow again and I didn't think much of it cause I didn't feel like dealing with it after redoing my setup and everything those past few days. It was gradual and went from its usual 12-15MB/s down to >1MB/s speeds for a couple days then stopped working entirely. So I moved my computer next to my router (computer is in the basement and router is on the main floor) and spent a day changing router settings and computer settings to the point where I said screw it and backed up then formatted my computer. I reconfigured how the Graphics card, the USB PCIe card, and my network card were sitting in the PCIe slots in my motherboard (was originally network card in the first PCIe x1 slot, then Graphics card in first PCIe x16 slot, then USB PCIe card in the second PCIe x1 slot. Now its USB, then network, lastly with the Graphics card in the Second PCIe x16 slot where the only difference according to the manual is that the second slot doesn't have DVI support). I reinstalled drivers for my PCIe cards and updated the computer and everything worked. I booted up a game and it wouldn't run applications or games in full screen. After reinstalling the drivers for my graphics card and some digging into the NVIDIA control panel, I found I was being dumb and the refresh rate in the control panel wasn't set to 165hz while my monitor was set to it (this monitor has a toggle overclock in its settings to set it to 165hz instead of 144hz). changed that and my games were working beautifully (used Ghost Recon: Wildlands and League of Legends to test it). Everything was fine for about an hour. Things looked great and I was playing Wildlands on the ROG Swift at 165hz and I was watching a movie on netflix on my other monitor. Then the game black screened and my monitor dropped signal as if I disconnected the displayport cable. I thought the game crashed and for shits and giggles I clicked and heard that the game was still responding. In fact I was able to shoot and run around without issue. Heavy sighs ensued. I checked the settings on both my ROG Swift and the nvidia control panel, both were sitting at the native resolution at 165hz. I turned off the overclocking (this monitor has a toggle overclock in its settings to set it to 165hz instead of 144hz for those who skipped the middle chunk or didn't care to look at the monitor) so it sat at 144hz and changed the control panel to match. No luck. So just for laughs I turned the refresh rate down to 60hz and that got my image back. I went up by the default refresh rate increments from the NVIDIA control panel and when I went to 100hz it stopped working. I turned it back down to a step below which was 85hz. I figured I'd try a different slot on my GPU to see if that would fix it to no avail. resetting the computer doesn't help, it just causes it to work at 165hz at the start but as soon as a game runs in fullscreen it immediately drops the signal again. Honestly I'm out of ideas and my brain is fried. Any help would be extremely appreciated.

1. Budget: $3000 2. Aim: 1440p 144Hz gaming max settings. Also VR (Oculus Rift, HTC Vive) 3. Monitors: Asus ROG Swift http://is.gd/kkr2NY Open to other suggestions. 4. Peripherals: Windows 10. Already have keyboard/mouse that I like. 5. Why are you upgrading? This is my first desktop. I've only owned laptops before. I'm upgrading from my 4 year old Asus G73SW gaming laptop. I'm excited for VR, and it's also been a dream of mine to build my own "battlestation" so here I am. After researching for the past few weeks, I've come up with this.

ROG Swift PG348Q & PG279Q So these two aren't newly announced, BUT! They have been confirmed to have new refresh rates which are very exciting! The 34" G sync 3440x1440 Ultrawide is set to now work at 100Hz, just like the upcoming Acer x34 The PG279Q (G sync, 1440p, IPS) is now announced to work at 165Hz! The first monitor to have this refresh rate out of the box, and at 2560x1440. Giving the Acer alternative a great run for its money, even with its new frame-less design! (And possible 150Hz refresh rate, which is unconfirmed) Both of these updates were confirmed at IFA 2015 by Asus themselves, and they made a press release here: http://press.asus.com/PressReleases/p/ASUS-Showcases-Complete-Lineup-of-ROG-Gaming-Innovations-at-IFA-2015#.VedlF_ZVhBc

Hey guys, so I'm looking to get a monitor(s) for my new rig (4690k+r9 290x vapor-x 8gb) and I will be gaming on far cry, cs go, minecraft (mainly I game on CS GO). I was set on the U2414Hs but then I discovered how 144hz monitors can improve game play tons. Bare in mine that I will be only gaming on one monitor and also that my budget is roughly £700.

hello there, I am a variety gamer. I play almost mmorpg all time but I've started going back to competitive gaming which was a big challenge for me if I've lost my skills to pull out a good strategy or I should be patient. Anyway enough with this introduction to what I do. I've got my eyes on an IPS monitor panel and you did guess it right, it's Asus rog swift PG27AQ. I know it's quite a while till it comes to market, but i can wait and compare it to other IPS panels. which TN 1ms is 144hz asus rog swift PG278Q and the 4k 60hz asus rog swift PG27AQ My monitors and what i plan to update to. using MarketEngine;using Internetexplorer.msn.bing;using chrome.collection.google;using firefox.collection.google;public class BrandsMonitor{private Brands(Monitor);private float price = 16*100f;void start(){bool acer = Monitor.acer.TN("My first TN Monitor 720p");bool benq = Monitor.benq.TN("My second TN Monitor 1366x768");bool acer2 = Monitor.acer2.TN("My third TN Monitor 900p");bool samsung = Monitor.samsung.TN("My current 4th monitor 1080p @75hz");}void update(){bool sell.monitors = Sell.oldbrands.monitor("acer" && "benq" && "acer2" && "samsung");bool newplan.brands.Monitor = Brands.Monitor.Asus("Asus rog swift PG278Q" && "Asus rog swift PG27AQ");if(Asus){rog.swift(PG27AQ != 4k);Ignore.rog.swift.monitor(PG27AQ);}else if{rog.swift(PG27AQ = 4k)Buy.rog.swift.monitor(PG27AQ);}else{Buy.rog.swift.monitor(PG278Q);}}} Alright in other words will it be wise to buy Asus PG278Q 144Hz for competitive gaming and wait till PG27AQ comes out? Thank you!

The last thursday I bought a pg278q, since then I have to force it to turn on everyday. The thursday I plugged in the monitor and it just showed nothing in the screen or it flickered in my win8 login screen, after some reboots I made it work loosing my O.C. settings. After that it worked smoothly for the rest of the day with some reboots and turns off/on (I set the overclock setting again) and it just went nicely. At friday's morning I tried to turn my pc on again and I had the same issue but I solved it as I did the day before and at saturday the same shit happens again. Today I'm over, I had been trying to made it work all day long and nothing is solved this time... The monitor is not even showing the bios logo so I think that is not a nvidia drivers fault cause in bios you are not using them. And the worst of all this stuff is that sometimes it shows the bios logo, sometimes don't, sometimes you can see the windows starting, sometimes don't. And the fucking worst problem is "How can a monitor show just NOTHING in the screen 5 hours after a gaming session of 3 hours with no problem?..." My PC: Intel i7-4820k (O.C. 4.5 GHz - Now is not overclocked -.-) Asus P9X79 Pro (BIOS 4801) G.Skill Ripjaws X DDR3 1866 PC3-14900 16GB 2x8GB CL9 Asus GTX780 DirectCU II OC 3GB GDDR5 Corsair AX1200i Thank you. This is a video showing the problem:

Hi LTT community, Just about to order my new build, what do you guys think? The main reason behind this build is for video editing (Adobe premiere/After Effects) but I am also an avid gamer. Currently just on console (PS4), but with this new build I've decided to join the pcmasterrace. To do it justice I was hoping to step up to 1440p as well. However my main concerns are screen tearing and ghosting, so was planning to buy a g-sync or when released freesync monitor. Seems my only option now is the ROG Swift @ £620! Any opinions, should I just stick at 1080p and do I need G/free-sync? Pc Spec: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/HfMdMp (Will be adding gpu in the next month or so) Budget: Don't really have one, as long as its not OTT. Depends if I go 1080p or 1440p. Say £1500 for tower and £300 for monitor. Though can spend more if necessary. Location: UK Monitors: Will be buying a new monitor, probably just 1 x 1080p or 1440p? Peripherals: Not required Thanks in advance!

Hi all, After several months (and hoping I got lucky) my ASUS ROG Swift display is starting to have issues. I'm not sure what the technical phrase for this, but essentially there is a full vertical line (the entire vertical length of my monitor, so 1440 pixels I guess?) of pixels that do not reproduce color correctly. Against a white background, the line appears yellow. When the background is black, the line appears blue. I can't really see it at all against a red background. Does anyone know what this is called? Googling basic phrases lead me to "line inversion" but the sample screenshots don't match what I'm seeing.
