Muhahahahahaahahah!

At least your one of the first and Acer are doing their best to airfreight a small amount over to us early. :)
 
That would be awesome if it happens and happy to be a tea boy for the day to come up and get it :D

Hey man.
Being serious now I would happily invite you up to come collect your monitor, you can have a tour of OcUK HQ and meet 8 Pack. :)

Upto you, just let me know! :)
 
They have done a very good job visualizing the benefits of G-Sync with this video, you could show this to people asking what it is and not need to explain further.

Yep it is superb, very happy with what they have done for us, can't see how it could be done better. :)
 
Agreed but I do feel they have exaggerated it a tincy wincy bit :D

That video is such a crock of *****

I don't have Gsync and my games don't look like that at all, nothing that blurry, nothing that stuttery or teary. Talk about PR BS! I mean hell was it running at 10fps or something?

I think it was more about emphasising what gamers get and they done it in a way that stands out.

This video gives a fantastic description of how G-Sync works and gives a fairer descrition.


The problem is watching at 30fps and not in real life. The guys who have seen G-Sync in real life have been wowed by it.
