I'm thinking about buying the Asus PB278Q

I would have bought the AX1200i instead of the AX1200 but the store doesn't have it.

I first bought a 2x8 GB instead of 2x(2x4) but it turned out to be faulty and the store didn't have any replacement except for the 2x4 GB version.

I thought about purchasing this instead of the PB278Q but I can't play games in 3D because it strains my eyes and even if i could, not all games support Nvidia 3D vision very well.

With that being said I'm not really sure an IPS panel is a better choice than a 120hz monitor.



This looks very good :D. I'll call the store and ask them if they have it.



The store had this and the vengeance and I read online that compared to the vengeance the dominator is better,and the shiny silver plating is awesome :)
