ASUS pb278q

 

I was told that one has PWM issues or something. I don't remember what the issue was exactly. I would love to get one but the refresh rate is scaring me away as I'm currently on a 120Hz monitor.

May I ask what your opinions on the monitor are? Like a sir.

Compared to my old tn panel LG 1080p monitor there is no comparison. It hurts to look at the old one.  Colours looks a lot better and the blacks are amazing.  Gaming on it is good personal I don't care for a high refresh rate monitor but that is up to you. The size is really nice for multi-tasking and I have mine on a monitor stand with the other one and I can say that I have never been happier with my setup.  One thing to remember that to play games you will have a pretty good set up; for example I have 2 gtx 670's in SLI and some games it has trouble ie Space Engineers and Rising Storm the only 2 that I had to drop  back to 1080p.
