- At time of writing the most affordable 1440p 144hz Gsync TN monitor (Note that Viewsonic will release their version soon though and I believe will have a higher refresh rate and will be cheaper)

The only 1440p monitor Viewsonic are bringing out with Gsync is the XG2073-GS

And it will be more expensive than the ROG

All the others are 1080p

ViewSonic has announced a ton of new gaming-centric monitors at CES 2016, ensuring that a wide variety of users can find a product they like. The company is also very clearly on the variable refresh bandwagon, with every display bar one featuring either Nvidia G-Sync or AMD FreeSync technology.

The most expensive of the new monitors is the XG2073-GS, a $1,217 27-inch 2560 x 1440 "SuperClear IPS-type" monitor with a maximum refresh rate of 165 Hz. This panel supports G-Sync, and is quite a bit more pricey than Asus' competing ROG Swift PG279Q, which also sports a 165 Hz 1440p display for just $799.

If you're after a 4K display, ViewSonic will sell you a 27-inch one with FreeSync for $913 in late January. This monitor also uses a "SuperClear IPS" display, and features 5ms response times with what appears to be a maximum refresh of 60 Hz. Connectivity includes a HDMI 2.0 port and DisplayPort 1.2a.

For AMD users out there, ViewSonic has two new 1080p displays that support FreeSync: the 24-inch XG2401 and 27-inch XG2701. Both of these displays go up to 144 Hz, and both sport 1ms response times, which indicates this panel uses a TN-type display. You can grab the 24-inch model for $404, and the 27-inch for $529 in late January.

Moving down the product stack we find the VX2776-smhd, a 27-inch 1080p IPS display. ViewSonic claims this monitor features a "contemporary borderless design", and its built-in speakers make it "the ideal multimedia display". There's no FreeSync or G-Sync in this panel, which will go on sale in April for $317.

And finally we have ViewSonic's entry-level 1080p monitors, all which support FreeSync and deliver 2ms response times. There are three models in total: the 22-inch VX2257-mhd, which costs $201 and is available now; the 24-inch VX2457-mhd, available in February for $228; and the 27-inch VX2757-mhd, available now for $323.

Finger is currently poised over the buy now button but one question: is the wake from sleep issue resolved? If not, do we have any assurances that it will be? Can someone explain what exactly happens and how you get around it? Switching off windows power saver mode for the screen doesn't fill me with a great deal of confidence.

Wakes up from sleep fine for me but I have the monitor's deep sleep option turned off.

I think so to but some people may not see it that way.

Yup getting mixed up. That model is their flagship IPS 165hz version. I thought Viewsonic were seen as a budget brand?

I'm sure you know that retailer is confused and these must be a pricing error. First it was £344 then £110, but they all get snapped up very quickly. :( Most are getting fulfilled but some are not.
Even if they are refurbs it's a bargain.

Also for the record, the 13 Trust messages I got since I made that statement :eek: please use Google to find it. Type in the model number and price and all shall be revealed.
 
You do realise that Google is heavily into personalised search results these days, so there is no guarantee that what you're seeing is what somebody else is seeing.

Oh so I mention I got it for cheaper elsewhere, without even saying where I got it from and you slap me with a " NO COMPETITOR HINTING ", yet someone else mentions it being way way under somewhere else, and it's funny :confused:

- Using smooth scroll on any browser causes fuzzy lines. I was going to RMA my monitor thinking it was faulty but it was smooth scroll that caused it.

What do you mean by "fuzzy lines"? Never heard about it, I only know about thin vertical lines caused by pixel inversion. :confused:

Are those fuzzy lines an issue other people experienced too?
