A 1070 should be good with this monitor. Anyone disagree?

Medium settings, sure. Ti is the perfect card for this res imo (had the Asus PG348Q and a Ti).

But tbf Medium still looks great on modern AAA games!

It also worth considering that a monitor at this money is more of an investment that is going to/should last multiple GPU upgrades, while you might not get 100% out of it all the time now, buying a monitor then a GPU later when a new one worth upgrading to is released isn't as painful buying a GPU and monitor together...

Nice! Seems easy enough. Only thing stopping me is that I have a 1070, not sure if I should wait for Nvidia announce something new.

I run a 980 with mine, absolutely no issues at all. WoW, GTAV, Witcher3 etc, all play great.

Mine still says 23/05... Hopefully it stays that way!!

What are the original / current shipping dates for yours?

 

[sdavlaws]

Its changed from the 14/5 to 17/5

Mine slipped from 11th to 22nd.. and that’s after ordering and waiting from the 31st March. Not happy

 

[Duff-Man]

Not looking good then... Especially when they're still in stock at UK retailers. I'd be fuming in your shoes Chappie!

I'm getting concerned with mine too, had an order in since 9th April and contacted them today to check, it is still in pre-production and delayed due to parts shortage.

Which UK retailers still have stock?

Can't really me mention competitors here, but if you browse the web then there's a "very" good chance that you'll find it, at Dell's non-discounted price.

Yeah it isn't a "very" good price, but I was worried that stock is likely to be returned units? As these are like gold dust at the moment...

No sign of mine eta was 10/4 going to contact them

 

[sdavlaws]

If i didn't get such a good price and the warranty from Dell I would have swapped retailer, whats annoyed me more is the lead time has gone out with even sending me an email

 

[3t3P]

Another week supposedly for mine.

10/4? as in, 5 weeks ago?!

 

[cogrady84]

tempted to cancel my order with dell, looks like could be a long wait as i've just had another email from dell saying still a delay on parts.

 

[Chappie172]

im tempted to cancel... but really dont fancy the panel lottery with other vendors.... the support ( especially when i got a free upgrade to Pro Support) is too good to cancel for me.

Out of interest, why did you guys order this and go with the delays when the Acer/Asus ones are more widely available? Cheers
