Great news! Thanks

Hurrah!

I'll probably switch to this monitor if the 390x tickles my fancy.

 

[Devrij]

You know what, screw the 390x. If it turns up it'll be late June, maybe shipping later, and I want this monitor. As soon as I see a review I'll be pulling the trigger (assuming the review is favorable of course!).

This monitor looks and sounds fantastic.... Just not sure I could go back to 27 inches though.

But oh my how I would love IPs, freesync and 144hz

Owning the Philips 40 inch though, just don't know how I'd get both on my desk.... I love the Philips... Would love this too am sure.

Even thought I'm using a geforce 780 I'm tempted to get one of these and then jump ship to AMD later down the line

Do we know if this has a pwm backlight?

Any reviews anywhere for this yet?

Nope think we r all waiting impatiently checking this thread 3 times a day

I think Baddass has stated he is hoping to get a unit before the released date so hopefully we have a review before they go on sale

Cheers for the update. I'm itching to buy this, and I'm just struggling to stay strong and wait for a review.

With UHD IPS monitors starting to get to a decent price it won't be long until we see them competing with this, Asus need to hurry up!

 

[LinkZ]

Any word on the physical dimensions of it?

Can you use Nvidia 3d on this?
