Anyone bought the Gigabyte AORUS FI27Q yet?
- Thread starter Vidar
- Start date
Yeah am waiting for that but it seems Gigabyte has messed up the launch a bit cause Ocuk weren't made aware of the P variant and even the Gigabyte Vendor reps don't seem to know what's going on.
Was just about to write that myself, lol. @robfosters If I'm buying a new monitor I want one that's going to get the most out of any new gpu I put in my rig over the years I have it.
The import tax would be pretty hefty though I guess?
I don't think Gigabyte have handled the launch of these well at all, when even retailers and their own reps didn't know that there was another model coming with higher specs is bad. The fact that the price of the original hasn't been reduced by much at all when it should now surely be EoL is bizarre.
That's the thing, nobody seems to know, as I've already said they haven't reduced the price of the previous model, so what's happening on price is anyone's guess... I don't think dp 1.4 and 10bit at 165hz justifies that kind of price premium though on the same panel.
If I don't hear anything soon though I think I may just go with one of the newer LG's or wait to see what drops next year.

Jeez that article is full of mistakes, they've got the none p version but keep referring to it as the p. The difference being on the none p you get DP 1.2 and only 8bit colour at 165hz.
Granted I don't normally pay this much attention to product launches but this has been a fuster cluck for Gigabyte.

@NikTheSHNIK is Gigabyte customer service deliberately vague? Contacting them directly specifically about a release date and expected price and all I'm told is it's not currently available in the uk and it's up to the local release schedule but no info about when that might be or how I can find out.
Are there any really good monitor deals coming up on something comparable?

@Warranty_V0id Never heard of them but that looks like it could be the exact same panel
@Warranty_V0id I concur, the LG 34GK950F at the current price point is extremely compelling!
So I purchased the LG 34GK950F, Gigabyte have really dropped the ball on this one! The lack of anything concise has really put me off.
First impression of the LG is excellent, the Jayztwocents video where he hugged it sold it for me and at its current price was just about affordable. If you can stretch to it guys, go for it!
