Specific requirements... limited choice?

If I'm after a 27 inch, 2560x1440, 120 / 144hz TN panel with ULMB... is my only choice the Asus ROG or is there anything else I've missed?

I'm after the same thing, there is the Acer Predator XB270HU but i'd steer clear of that one.

I understand that Dell is releasing the S2716DG, which will be 27 inch, 2560x1440, 144hz TN. I'm waiting for this one, should release in October.

I did see it, but it's an IPS panel and I'm not willing to play the IPS glow lottery.

I did see that but I'm not too willing to pay the sort of premium that G Sync is commanding so expect this to come in quite expensive. Will wait and see though.

It only suggests the ROG. Guess I'll be playing the waiting game a little while longer.

It isn't a lottery, it is 100% guaranteed. I'd also recommend waiting to see how the Dell S2716DG turns out.

Mine is good has no bleed or glow that i can see, does have a dead pixel to the right edge of the screen, but otherwise a good monitor.

seems my screen has developed more dead/stuck pixels.
