Mine is dispatched

Alcran · 28 Apr 2015 at 14:29

Well I've ordered one to replace my Hans G 28" screen that i Purchased in 2008.
Do you think this Acer monitor will be better ?

Mine is still showing as printed in the warehouse queue. Have any other people with pre-orders not had theirs dispatched yet?

(Order OC2003708 if any OcUK staff want to give it a nudge for me

)

Sounds good, I'm a bit excited - I think the frequency at which I'm hitting F5 on my order page is around 144Hz

Really want this monitor. I just bought a titan to power it. Can't afford just yet tho

C'mon OcUK - I've got 20 mins left in which I can book a day off this week, could do with knowing if mine will go out tomorrow or not

I'm sure it will. Have a little faith.

Hmmm, I ordered at 11:16 and had a dispatched email at 12:22.

Although I won't be able to play till Thursday as I'll have to wait till the wife's at work for the 'swop out' luckily it looks the same as my xb270ha its replacing so fingers crossed it'll go unnoticed.

WhiteHawk77 · 28 Apr 2015 at 15:40

Guess they are not going out in order then, still printed in warehouse for me.

GarryO · 28 Apr 2015 at 15:53

I ordered my graphics card at 1730 a day last month and was told it missed next day delivery cut off. Got a email later saying it was dispatched and did get it next day. Don't despair!

Mines moved back to "In warehouse queue" ..... which I'm almost sure it said that while it was on pre-order. So yeah... worried a bit now

Hmm, I really hope they aren't taking new orders but not fulfilling all the pre-orders... that'd be a bit naughty.

I called the sales line and asked if mine would go out today, the agent that answered said it probably would but didn't sound very convincing if I'm honest.

[edit]... it just shipped. Faith restored! Will have a play tomorrow and report back. Upgrading (side-grading?) from a 34" Superwide 21:9 3840 x 1440 60Hz panel so I'm very interested to see how this weighs up.

hi

Does any one know what length the display cable provided is? Just ordered this monitor and hoping its at least 1.5m for my set up.

Cheers

Assuming it's the same as the HA I have its about that, more than 1m I'm sure as its floor to monitor on pedestal with a bit to spare.

You should contact sales/CS if it has still not shipped, the order could be delayed for other reasons as stock is in our warehouse.

It's not long. I think it was 1m. When I got mine (first time around) I had the same problem. Luckily I had another longer DP cable around, so that wasn't a problem. I highly recommend that you just get a long DP cable as well. You can get a 5m OcUK value DP cable for £7.99.
