Amazing misprice! Not still available is it?

No, but it seems every time they sell it directly it is mispriced to some degree.

Bargains.

The ASUS ROG Swift is the same price at the moment. Which would be better?

Tough call. Performance is essentially so similar, so it would depend on your styling preferences or whether you want to make use of some of the product-specific features (i.e. HDMI for the Dell). I think many will be telling you that Dell are the better company as far as customer support under warranty goes, however.

Have you applied an ICC profile yet? It does make quite a difference as the gamma is too low by default! But yes, a TN panel is still a TN panel regardless of any amount of calibration. At least you won't get any IPS glow though, and it is a very responsive thing.
Literally downloaded Colour Sustainer and Twirly's ICC profile. Seems to adjust gamma mainly? The colours pop out more and there's less "white wash" effect going on.
And yeah, I did kind of hate the IPS glow in dark scenes. I had the MG279Q w/ an R9 390. I sent them back with the intention of getting this S2716DG and a 970, but when I saw the price I snapped it up with a 980ti instead. I do kind of wish I'd gone with the PG279Q, but it would have cost a fortuuuune.

Seriously for the price you paid for it get a colormunki too. An icc profile for your screen will make a huge difference. I've tried a few profiles from other people and they look nowhere as good as my own.
Very envious of the price some people are getting this for. Atleast some people are benefitting and don't have the intention to flip it.

Try the ones posted below:
100cdm/2 is what I use at night. The 3D LUT with reshade I use to force the desktop profile in games. Games need to support reshade for it to work.
The version 1's were the first ones I did and final versions are what I settled on. I also found out recently that the perceptual rendering intent looked much better in games therefore both 100cdm/2 3dlut folders ONLY have lut's based on this.
TFT Central and a user on OCN by the name of Yellows have profiles too.
Yes, which I said before, I just mentioned I got it cheaper elsewhere, didn't even hint where from and the mods jumped on me right off the bat with a " NO COMPETITOR HINTING ". Yet people are posting prices and even hinting where they got it from. To be honest I don't care either way about peoples postings, but I can't stand staff hypocrisy
