Currently shipping from Korea on ebay for $700.
ended up buying this monitor through a well known supplier (1k+ rep) on ebay (took a risk, I know!) and am very pleased with it.

I'm sure i'm not the only one who wants something like this and I ain't seen mention of it yet so figure i'd let you know.

I imported this from korea to Ireland essentially.

Ive made a review over at overclock.net for those who are interested. I don't know about rules for linking externally to another board, so i'l avoid for now.

The panelook sheet on this particular panel isn't quite accurate, the 100hz refresh is native out of the box. I overclocked mine to 110hz without issue, though I'm at 105hz day to day. My particular monitor has 0 dead pixels or stuck pixels, but like any monitor, YMMV. Its got an antiglare finish, which suits me to the ground as mine is near a window.

let me know if you have any questions and i'l try to answer :)
I haven't been able to toy with the freesync much as i'm using a GTX1070. I do have an r9 280x under my bed, but loathe to swap it out :D. Another guy over there got freesync range down to 34, ain't messed with it personally.

I'm a little skeptical - have you tested to see if it's frame skipping at all? As far as I'm aware 109Hz is literally the ragged edge of what DP 1.2 is capable of at 3440x1440, I'm not entirely convinced this screen is capable of that.

yes, ive tested it extensively. I run it at 105hz day to day as i'm not sure what stress i'm putting on the panel honestly (although it is 100hz native, so yeah limits of DP1.2a is probably what i need to be concerned about. 2560x1080 supports 144hz out of the box, ain't overclocked that res though as I don't use.

This is what it looks like on the frameskip test @ 105hz (excuse my ****** camera):

notice the white bar is uninterrupted, meaning no frameskip.

~58 euros in the republic of Ireland, not sure what HMRC would charge you ( have an address in NI , but it worked out cheaper here).
