3feet /arms length to touch screen?, Push it back a bit to wall like I did on a 27"

Now I'm just sat here wondering how far down I am in the queue and when mine will get to OCUK...any update @Gibbo ? (although I'd guess you're a tad busy atm!)

Count me in.
(I hope my wife doesn't notice the upgrade from the 24" 1080p monitor)

I'm tempted as I can't find a 27" monitor with the same features for anywhere near this price.

Messing about with the tape measure on my desk suggests it'll be too big for how far away I'm sat though

I can totally relate, as I'm ideally after a 27" IPS 1440p. I found a 27" benq 2765ht but it doesn't have freesync and it's £69 over this Aoc. I too measured up with a tape measure lol, I sit about 2.5ft away.

I have an overhead shelf which limits how far back I can push it, by my calculations I'll be 2ft away, as the current 24" sits under shelf. Can't be arsed to raise shelf

I'm about an arm's length away and not able to push a monitor back any further.

Come on AOC - drop a 27" version of this at a similar price.

Where there is a will there is a way!

P.S Raise your self.

I think Gibbo mentioned 1 to 2 weeks.

I’m contemplating getting one!

Gibbo · 23 Nov 2017 at 20:43

Yes 1-2 weeks guys.

Is this a 60hz or 75hz monitor? Because there are conflicting reports.
Is stated as 60hz monitor but Freesync is working 48-75. Also seems is coming with HDMI 1.4 not 2.0b so no Freesync over HDMI?

Yeah bit weird aobut 60/75hz. As for Freesync, well I will be using freesync with display port for the gaming rig, and for HTPC then DVI at 75hz, so that's all I need.

On the amd website http://www.amd.com/en/products/freesync-monitors

It states freesync 48-75hz via display port and hdmi, just no LFC support. They wouldn't need to use hdmi2 for 1440p 75hz.

Am guessing it'll be like my 38" LG, 75Hz with AMD cards and 60Hz with any other.

Which just sounds weird does it not? If it can do 75hz, why limit it to AMD cards? Still, I'll be using this for strategy games mainly, so doesn't matter!

It is a bit weird, but fortunately I use the ULMB mode on my LG and it does 75Hz with nVidia cards
