AMD freesync coming soon, no extra costs.... shocker

Some of you here act as if you don't understand how business works. Of course Nvidia want to lock you into a product, that's how you make more money. Jeez.

People moan about nVidia prices but look at how much they reinvest in R&D. If people don't want a stagnant market, that is very much needed. I was very happy to pay for my ROG Swift and everyone else I know who owns one was the same. Only those that moan about it, don't have it :D
 
Is humbug trying to rip on gsync price with none comparable products?

If people can't notice a difference between IPS, VA and TN then they need to get their eyes tested! :D

Never going back to TN, it just looks horrible especially as soon as you view it ever so slightly from the centre... I never sit perfectly in the middle at the right distance so TN screens look even more washed out.

Input lag is a non-issue for good IPS panels, I don't notice it at all on my 29um65 or dell u2311h, well lets put it this way, it certainly doesn't stop me from topping the leaderboards in bc 2, bf 3 and bf 4 with 4+ k/d and an accuracy of 20+% when playing infantry.

The only issue with IPS and VA compared to these gaming TN panels is motion clarity, it is very poor in comparison.
