Logic dictates these prices are placeholders folks.

Of course, hence my statement aimed at people who insist on still moaning about the pricing of these monitors. Not to good at following logic are you?

Sin_Chase · 18 Jan 2015 at 05:00

Logic does not dictate anything about pricing.

Gibbo stated HIMSELF that the pricing is as it is as a result of an educated guess due to the fact pricing provided appears to be wrong.

There is none of your so called 'logic' involved. Unless of course, you require some bizzare form of logic in order to read.

Hmm, so a new confirmed (presumably Gibbo?) price of £429.95 for 1440p/144Hz TN Freesync screen, damn tempting. Wonder what will happen to the price of the ROG Swift now (or in March anyway) with such direct competition.

I think the Rog was priced at a premium and for Nvidia users it still is.

Any news on a 3440X1440 FreeSync screen?

Cheers.

Nothing yet but there are rumoured to be ~20 adaptive sync monitors by end of the year. I would bet at least one will be in tour preferred resolution.

Is there not going to be any Freesync models like the Acer Predator XG277HU but with an IPS/PLS panel?

I hope so but im not getting my hopes up. The BenQ is also going to be TN

Yes, the ASUS MG279Q.

Lol, your house will smell rank. I suppose it will keep the burglars away so they don't steal your nice new monitor.

That's a gsync monitor, will it also be coming in a freesync version?

Is it? Last time I looked it was DP1.2A+ and Nvidia don't support DP1.2A+

No updates, manufacturers can take weeks/months to get final specs to us after events such as Computex/CES, as the only person who knows the real spec is some engineer/R&D bod, who does not release such final info to marketing department to put onlines until months later.

Any news?

Acer XB270HA = 55 - 144Hz
Acer XB270HU = 30 - 144Hz
Acer XB280HK = 55 - 75Hz (this one in particular is shocking)
Acer XG270HU = 50 - 144Hz

If that is typical of the ranges for these monitors then it really will be necessary for the buyer to get as much info as they can before buying to avoid disappointment. Made even more difficult if the monitor manufacturers don't normally make this info easy to find.
