Hi OC

Just curious to know what you guys would buy a 7970 or the new hazro 30inch coming out soon.

At the moment I've got a hazro 27b and two 6950s 2gb.

Could get a 27c version then another 7970 around march without the 30 though.

Would love to get my next buy right and not a regret.

Cheers

Go for the monitor mate.

It's price will stay pretty constant while the 7series will develop and bloom into better bang for buck loot, by the time march rolls around you will be able to make a more informed gpu choice.

How soon untill the 30" Hazro comes out?
 
Cheers first of all.

There was a post by the hazro guy in october saying they will be ready soon.

Also I sent a message to OC support say around two weeks ago and again they are saying the new hazro should be in stock soon.

No defo date yet looks like soon though.
 
Get the 27c if you do work on the computer (two monitors >> one monitor). If you only game wait for the 30". Also if you plan on a 27d at some point :D it will give you a nice root to eyefinity.

Bad example coming up.

It's a bit like the car philosophy! The only contact with the road are the wheels/tyres.

The only interface you have to your computer is the monitor...

Genius.

I'm thinking of what the price might be for the 30 the dell is £935 so would you say hazro has to be cheaper otherwise dell would be a better option for most people right??
 
Previous and Current Hazro 30 inchers are great and this one is supposed to better so that's worth waiting a little bit more for.

The benchmarks of the 7970 don't look that impressive tbh, doubt it's even an upgrade to you so go for the monitor. Unless you dislike the powerbill.. as a single 7970 is a lot more efficient than one 6950, and you have two ;)
 
How much better is the Hazro 30 than the 27c.

Need some good advice where the two stand out like does 1600 kill 1440 in games also 16/10 v 16/9 etc

Well I'm guessing the 30 is similar except the size and pixel count!

I personally prefer 16:10, and having 1600 vertical will be lovely. It's up to you really. If you can afford a 30" and want one, go for it!
 
I like 16:10 as well, not enough to justify the additional costs when it comes to 2560x1440 vs 2560x1600 however and even with 'only' 1440 vertical pixels that's still a LOT that you can fit in there.

What did disappoint me a bit is that my 27" Hazro has the same physical screen height as my old 24" 1920x1200 monitor (The Hazro has a higher pixel density/wider screen). Ultimately this is a decision you have to make yourself, are you willing to pay extra for larger screen and slightly higher resolution?
 
Ok thank you.

I'm going to go for a 27c after thinking about it plus my new desk will not fit a 30.

My brother is going to buy my 27b will 2 4870s 1gbs be enough to play games on it or 1 6950 2gb?
 
Ok Thanks.

Which is better for Gaming Wide Gumut or Ultra Wide Gaming talking about the new Hazro 30s coming out or none of these at all.



Buying time soon.

Thanks

Sorry mate I have just deleted the text now.

Is Axeia around?

Was told via another outlet to keep away from Ultra Wide Gamut for a Gaming Monitor is this true? if so does that mean to go for Wide Gamut instead.

Just might leave the Hazro's been recently reading not good news and am now thinking of a Dell 27inch for the warranty as well though the lag has put me off that as well.

Need to get this buy right so any more advice would be great.

Is the Dell lag that bad?
Is Ultra Wide Gamut no good or Wide Gamut Fine?
Are Hazro 30s just like the 27s Dust Dead Pixels etc
