Why does this 24" 1080p monitor cost £570

Is there something really special about this BenQ monitor that am missing :confused:

Obviously a mistake

Why?

Could be genuine, BenQ make great monitors but it does seem strange!

Actually its not a mistake

it has G-SYNC but still that price :eek:

Gsync seems to add a stupid amount to the price of monitors, so it's probably right.

This £319.99 one looks to be the exact same version of that monitor but without G-sync http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-107-BQ&groupid=17&catid=510

So there only charging you £250 extra for the G-Sync version

It's also the first G-Sync monitor to support inputs other than DisplayPort. Still; absurd price though.

Well noticed...

But am guessing that G-Sync will only work when connected through the Display port..
