Bah I think I'm just gonna cave and order a swift. The wait is annoying and I really want one.

The PG348Q Moo ?

MooMoo444 · 15 Mar 2017 at 10:33

Yeah. That is the only Swift ultrawide I think

AOC responded to my tweet with 'next week'. We'll see if it actually comes in at £799 as well. Somehow I doubt it but you never know.

Superb. New monitor for me then either way next week.

Order made

Will see what sort of quality panel turns up. Could always send it back in a few days if the new AOC one is good.

Now just need to clear some desk space..

Monitor arrived, rushed home to try it, and found out OcUK had sent me one with a European plug :S

Props to them for quickly sending a correct one out today before they closed, should have it tomorrow, but it's still sad

It's 3 feet away in the bubble wrap and I want to play with it!

I take it it's not just a typical kettle lead then?

Nah the one that goes into the power brick has 3 connectors, never seen it before.

Had that with my old swift, really don't understand why monitors sold in the UK would ship with only an EU plug.

Makes sense tbh

OK so I shut off the LEDs at the bottom of my Monitor , about 5 seconds after that the Monitor went on and off three times in a row ( Off On, Off On, Off On ) , does that sound right ?

MooMoo444 · 17 Mar 2017 at 16:37

Wahey, we're up and running. Zero dead pixels \o/

A little bleed but getting one without is like winning the lottery so I can live with it. The GSync is the main wow factor to be honest.. games just feel that little smoother.
