When does the this week only offer end?

jh30uk · 23 Nov 2014 at 15:05

Wed to midnight Tue. AFAIR but may be 3pm Wed, it states this somewhere in stickie or FAQ's.

Any here got experience of going from 27" 1440p to 32" 1440p? I wonder whether there would be a subjective drop in quality, or whether it just looks damn awesome regardless and better for it being a bigger screen size?

jh30uk · 23 Nov 2014 at 15:13

Be easier to see desktop text etc on the 32" at same 1440p.

Smurfin · 23 Nov 2014 at 15:16

hmm sitting in front of my 27", desktop text is fine - no problems reading it whatsoever. I'm thinking mainly for gaming.

I struggled with text on my Rog Swift at default Windows DPI (6/5 vision corrected by lenses).

Many things like desktop gadgets do not even scale.

Windows 10 is said to improve on this.

The Acer is pretty much perfect in regards to text. I made a good switch

jh30uk · 23 Nov 2014 at 16:10

Did you have a Rog Swift and WTF happened to the 970's?

JediFragger · 23 Nov 2014 at 16:14

970's went to a friend, but only because I was intent on going 4k next month and thought the 290s would perform better at that res........D'oh!!!!

On a seperate note, my new setup;

Just some cable tidying to do

jh30uk · 23 Nov 2014 at 16:14

You keep your kit less time than Boom.

4K at good FPS is a pipe dream on current GPU's for most peeps unless you go ideally 3x GPU's (some games 2x GPU's will handle it) and what happens when games like say (pure made up examples) Crysis 4 and Metro next gen arrive

There was a write up a while back that the reason we seen all these cheap 4K panels was due to the monitor market being stagnant, they should have be £1000 not £400-500 but many are TN and some were only 30HZ.

JediFragger · 23 Nov 2014 at 16:17

Exactly, hence my willingness to wait 9-12 months for a nice 4k 40" Freesync monitor and for gfx cards to get better

This is the ideal stopgap :cool:

Cavallino · 23 Nov 2014 at 16:18

See I don't get why people are moving to 4K considering that you need some massive ooomf. Surely they would do so for non-gaming purposes? I.e. graphics etc?

JediFragger · 23 Nov 2014 at 16:20

BTW, I already owned the 290s

Just ordered this puppy (excellent value) and hopefully get it Tuesday. Last few orders I've not got any haribo. Better get some this time.

JediFragger · 23 Nov 2014 at 21:01

I nabbed a few from the shop jar whilst I was there

Guaranteed Haribo = :cool:

Cavallino · 23 Nov 2014 at 21:30

Thanks for the pics above JF.

I have ultimately went for the BenQ for now only because of the acceleration settings being preset to premium on the Acer whereas the Benq is selectable...

Lets see how it goes

dalehitchy1 · 23 Nov 2014 at 22:00

Would like opinionsof this monitor. Not really many reviews or many YouTube video. Would like a few pics showing it set up on a desk.

Done a little gaming on BF4 and couldn't really see anything 'wrong' with it. BUT some people are more sensitive to it than others so you probably made the right choice in regards to being able to set it yourself

You're gonna LOVE the size of it m8, epic :cool:

Cavallino · 23 Nov 2014 at 23:54

Can't wait bud.

Going from 24". It's madness I tell thee.
