Still hoping that the Iiyama B2888UHSU-B1 I have will be able to receieve a firmware update as the panel is freesync compatible. Whilst Iiyama may not offer the free upgrade as once rumoured I'll take the panel apart and DIY it if some bright spark puts a how to up on the net.
In what way?
This IPS 144HZ gsync monitor has pretty much no weakness at all now:

Why pick the rog swift over it? The acer isn't much more expensive but has way better colours & image quality & better viewing angles with no contrast shift.

LOL tn panel, that ips acer kills that swift for IQ and is nearly as fast. **** if I had the cash I would have it. Hope they do a freesync model

It is still down to personal preference, personally, playing lots of games with a dark background and prefering to play in low light conditions i will take TN over IPS as IPS glow does my head in and the swift still edges out the IPS for motion clarity
I'm actually hoping the curved gsync thingy isnt ips either
I think it's been pretty much confirmed NO manufacturer is going to offer firmware upgrades to patch in Freesync support.
Why would they? Makes no business sense.

I'll be interested in seeing what monitors come out with Freesync. I will upgrade when one comes out that is really worth the money, at the minute i am ok with my 1080p 120hz screen. Maybe some time this year there will be a nice 1440p Freesync screen to upgrade to.
Not holding much hope for a screen with both Gsync and Freesync though.

Anyone here used 1080p on a 1440p screen? Does it look really bad?

Its only for CSGO, my aim is fine tuned to 1080p going 1440p I dont have the time to be readjusting. Least I hope I just take to 1440p right away.
