Asus seem to be a good brand , I think its worth the risk personalty , but thats just me , I have no idea if they are good with monitors or not , but they seem to make good gpu's though.
They do have a warranty anyway , so I say why not if you have the cash.
I am tempted to buy their 27" Samsung which is on sale myself, it is only 209 pounds.
Anyway lets us know what you end up getting and good luck!

Ordered the Asus damn it, and a dvd drive OCUK one had forgotten. Apparently it's by LG but still wondering if should have gotten a different brand? Waiting on it all coming at mo so could change

I personally would Avoid LG and go with something else. (mixed reviews , its up to you if you want it or not , do they offer a replacement if you have any dead pixels for lg ones ?)
Asus might be the safest bet.

they didnt sell stuff early, i went rifhght after work(230am) got there at 5am we were the 4th people in. the raffle tickets came in to make it fair so that first entrants got their tickets so they were guaranteed what they wanted. and i can tell you now they sold more than 10 7970s and monitors. they were in such demand i think they got more out. thr way psople were let in was a bit daft, everyone got tickets, were kicked out at 745am and came back for the 9am launch where everyone piled in. i stood outside for half hour lol. but i dont know why they didnt call the first 30 raffle numbers, wouldve made sense. but very friendly throughout, cold dominoes pizza when we got there and got to play on some of the tech. got some pics ill whack on here and the facebook group. thanks for a great day with great deals ocuk! now for some sleep before work.
They were friendly yeah, I was only ten dgm monitors but looked like more graphics cards. Ah well I ended up spending three hundred more than I intended so it worked eh lol
