4k2k Display with NVIDIA® G-SYNC - Acer XB280HK

I'm already itching to get my hands on it but I know it's not till next week!

*presses the fast forward button*

Why isn't time skipping already.
 
This is going to be a long 11 days :(

Wonder if there's an off chance of some coming in next Monday, as that's when the 144hz acers are due.
 
I've pre-ordered this monitor but i'm a bit concerned with one aspect. I can't stand screen tearing so I thought with the g-sync it wouldn't make a difference that it's 60hz refresh rate. Is this correct? As I'm seeing g-sync monitors with 144hz refresh rate.

I've got a 780 Ti to power the monitor. Is there a chance of screen tearing with this 60hz monitor? I won't be expecting to run this @ 4k, 1080p is fine for gaming for the time being. With an upgrade path for the future.

I'm not sure what the difference between the two are? G-sync 60hz v 144hz?
 
144hz will refresh every 7ms or so 60hz every 16.6ms. 144hz will feel more fluid but as it is anything over 60hz at 4k can't be done. There are some Strong rumors this monitor will do 1080 @ 120hz also and quite possibly 90hz+ at 1440p, so you do have some room for negotiation if your current hardware isn't quite up to running some games at 4k.

8 days to go :D
 

My mrs has royally ****** me over btw.

Asked if she wouldn't mind sodding off to her mothers with the child for the weekend when my monitor arrives - no problem.

Shes only gone and sorted it all for THIS weekend leaving me to babysit next :mad:

8 days until its out, likely 11 till' I get a look in :(

Ah well, shall have to spend the weekend getting mangled.
 
You know when you're eagerly awaiting a product when you're checking several times a day to see if your monitor has been sent, despite knowing that it won't be delivered until release. :o

Ugh the wait is endless!
 
This time next week boys :D

Any word from the big man yet? Need to know if we're getting some free Saturday delivery bumps or am I going to have to get it paid up :)

Super excited now.

The 1080 gsync units are due in today.
