Screen refresh rate on P170EMs

Grimorkin · 2 Dec 2012 at 18:36

Does anyone know or can confirm that the screens that come with the P170EMs (or the P150EMs for that matter) can only manage 60Hz? I'm assuming they do or it would be advertised.

Do you know if they can be replaced with 120Hz versions?

I did send OcUK a webnote to ask but all I got back was (paraphrased) "don't know, they do 1920*1080, tho."

Thanks.

Sorry, can I tag a question on too.

Are they matt or glossy?

Chances of 120hz? slim.

P170EM refresh is 60hz
The newer Xfire/SLI models can utilize a 120Hz internal screen and external as they do not use optimus/enduro tech.

Can anyone confirm on the Matt or glossy screen please?

Plus another general comments on the screen quality?

Thanks

My old man just ordered one, it was a choice of Shiny apparently.

Go for the MAtt if possible, screen quality is fantastic on either Glossy or Matt.
