** AOC G-SYNC NOW IN STOCK!! **

So likely no improvement over my BenQ XL2411T? I have heard people say BenQ's are the worst of the bunch for colours though.
 
Have any of the monitor test guru's on here been able to test/review this monitor yet?
Interested to see if it has a flicker free backlight, and how things like input and processing lag are.
 
It doesn't have flicker free, it uses pwm. I use a fairly high brightness and I'm not sensitive to flicker though. Can't give you anything on input and processing lag other than to say anecdotally that it feels very responsive.
 
I've been looking at getting one of these for a few weeks now.

Can someone tell me if a gtx 770 is going to be good for this? My FPs is vsync'd at 60 on my Samsung monitor atm and I mostly play mmorpgs, mostly wow atm. I do find my FPs drops to as low as 15 when the effects get intense. Most of the rest of the time it's at or very close to 60. So my question is would this monitor make it look better?

In a month or 2 I am hoping to buy a whole new system with gtx800 series so it will get proper use later this year.
 
I've a 770, works great for everything I've thrown at it so far. If your fps is dropping to 15 when there's a lot going on onscreen I'd suspect it's more to do with your cpu, what cpu do you have?

Also gsync works best at above 30 fps, at 15 fps it's probably not going to feel any better.
 
Yea I keep dropping things down. And some of them seem to allow less of an FPs drop. Still takes a 50% hit.

Been looking for similar issues and found a lot with the same card and same problem (maybe not palit). Found something that seem promising on the nvidia forums - it's using the nvidia audio instead of the Realtek audio and a lot of people seem to be reportin. That it has worked for them.

Does this sound like it could be the problem or just some bs?

Im sure my HD7850 didn't have these huge drops. But it never sued it on ultra.

In November wow is having a huge update to textures or something and I'm thinking this is going to just make it worse :(

EDIT - unbelievably removing the nvidia HD audio driver from my computer fixed this issue. instead of the drops to <15 from 60+. it now drops from 100+ to 40>. cant believe how hard it was to find this fix.

It won't necessarily make it "look better" but you will definitely notice a huge difference in smoothness, the G-Sync is really noticeable especially when frame rates drop. 144Hz definitely makes a difference btw.

The monitors menu could do with a bit of work as it seems to be a bit rushed/unfinished compared to other AOC monitors, maybe because they wanted to get it out as early as possible?

I owned this monitor for over a week before having to return it due to it causing severe eye strain, I have no idea why but it did.

Other than that it is a great monitor if your looking for G-Sync. I am probably going to end up getting the Benq version after it is released in autumn.
