Watch the Linus 4k videos then the Ultra LCD videos on YT and see why he says 4k is dead to him.

I agree with most of it.

In a few years 4k sure.

It's looking good, hopefully pricing here will be fair! Could be an excellent monitor, I'll probably wait for some user reviews before thinking about purchasing though.

Want. Need. Now :-)

I will wait and see real peeps with them to see if prone to stuck pixels and backlight bleed.

Did anyone catch what he was running? Was it one or two Titan Blacks?

which one is that? In the asus/samsung ones he has mixed feelings but doesn't say anything quite that harsh

I think I posted them here somewhere and he did say it and the title of video says it.

SLI Titans... not sure what type

If you watch it, he plays on High and still only gets 120fps...

Aye dual titan blacks, it's strange he didn't go for ultra as when frame rates are taking a battering is when gsync is supposed to shine.

He may have set it to limit to 120FPS in Precision or such (though not sure why), as he should have been a lot higher at that setting whith those GPU's.

With a single 780, albeit highly overclocks this worries me a little. I guess I will need to go SLI.

Then again I play BF4 with everything on low except mesh.

Even on their demo model they've got a pixel stuck on white! :/

ASUS Nordic

Its actually a tiny piece of styrofoam that ended up on the screen from the box so its not a dead pixel

Thought I read somewhere that gsync itself can only go up to 120 atm? Maybe that's why, turn it off and the thing might shoot up to 144? You'd notice dips though where as with gsync on it shouldn't matter.

Maybe that's the delay, Nvidia fiddling with it to run faster?
